More fun fold cards!

Each day this week I'm sharing many of the Fun Fold card swaps made by my talented Flowerbug's Team.  They are amazing! 

First is Candace's pretty Double Triangle card:

May Candace Poppy Save

This card is so fun to make and to receive! You can find all kinds of tutorials for this fold.  Here's a video I made for it: 

The best thing about this card fold is how perfectly it uses both your card stock and designer paper without waste!  And it makes 2 cards at the same time!

Start out with a full 8 1/2" X 11" piece of card stock.  Score it down the center both ways; at 5 1/2" and 4 1/4".  Then cut in half on the diagonal like this:

DoubleTrianglesStep02 Save

Now cut two pieces of designer paper measuring 4" X 5 1/4" in half.  Use double sided paper for the best use; two for each card.

Candace used the retiring Peaceful Poppies designer paper seen here, the Painted Label dies and the Peaceful Moments bundle.  I love that splash of designer paper inside the card!

  • The Terracotta Tile layer is 4" X 3"
  • Designer paper is 3 7/8" X 2 7/8"
  • The Olive stitched rectangle is 3 1/2" X 2 1/4"

  • Stamps are from the Ornate Style & Ornate Thanks stamp sets 

Paula made this striking fun fold card using the Peaceful Poppies designer paper and the Painted Poppies bundle.

This Peaceful Poppies designer paper is retiring and is on the Last Chance list now while supplies last here.  I'm so glad the Painted Poppies bundle will be returning in the new Annual catalog! 

Measurements:

  • Poppy Parade main card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" and 6 3/8"
  • Striped DSP is 1 7/8" X 5 1/4"
  • Poppies DSP is 1 3/4 X 3 3/4"
  • White strips are 2" X 4" 

I hope you're enjoying these fun fold cards made by my talented Flowerbug's Team!  More tomorrow!

  • Do you save your scraps? Look what I did with mine!

    Do you ever save your tiny scraps in the hopes of creating something with them?  When I saw the little petals left from this pretty die-cut I saw a flower in my head.  What do you think?  Would you save them? 

    Thoughtful Wishes flowers Save

     

    This pretty & delicate die-cut is from the Thoughtful Wishes bundle in the new catalog. When I prepped cards for a Team Meeting a few weeks ago I had to save the pieces & try this! It features our new 2024-26 In Color Glimmer specialty paper in the new Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up!  This catalog goes live tomorrow!  May 1st!!

    Here are the three cards I made with the finished flowers: 

    Thoughtful Wishes glimmer cards Save

    From left to right the colors are Summer Splash, Peach Pie and Petunia Pop.  

    I glued the petals to a small circle; then added the white center (Zinnia die) over them.
    The large leaf die is from the new Thoughtful Wishes bundle & the circles are from the new Spotlight on Nature bundle (the dotted circle is from Everyday Details).

    Thoughtful Journey flower Save

    The card above is Petunia Pop color.  The pretty designer paper is our new 2024-26 Designer paper pack. I heat embossed the greeting (Spotlight on Nature set) with White embossing powder onto Black card stock. That pop of Black on a card adds a bit of elegance.

    Which is your favorite of these three colors?  Remember you can get in on my new product shares for just 1 more week:  the In Color bundle, designer paper share or an In Color ribbon share. See details below:

  • Spotlight on Nature – sneak peak of the fabulous new bundle

    Look at the beautiful card my friend & team member Candy sent me last week.  One of our team challenges was to send RAK cards.  Random Acts of Kindness.  I was very grateful to receive one from her!

    Spotlight on Nature Candy Save

    It's made with a new bundle in the 2024-25 Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up!. It's called Spotlight on Nature.  It includes floral, leaves and butterflies along with pretty sentiments.  And an amazing set of detailed & texture circle dies.  

    Notice her softly sponged background around the flowers & leaves. She used Balmy Blue, Old Olive & Calypso Coral here, coloring in her images with Blends markers.  Note that Olive circle die-cut – you can spy it in the photo below.  

    We're going to love these dies!!

    Spotlight on Nature Candy. Save

    Demonstrators were able to pre-order this gorgeous bundle in April but everyone can order it after May 1st. In fact you could add it to your Starter kit too.

    I'll be sharing more projects with this bundle soon. Thanks for the fabulous card Candy!!
