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:

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:

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!

Marilyn made this beautiful card with the Ornate Garden suite of products seen here; an early release from the upcoming Annual Catalog.  

  • The Olive card base is 4 1/4" X 8 3/4" scored at 5 1/2"
  • 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" 
  • The Terracotta Tile die-cut is from the Ornate Frames dies
  • The White daisy layer is 1 1/8" X 2 1/2", the White inside is 4" X 5 1/5"
  • 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!

  • Playful Patterns cards kit to go; time limited!


    The August cards kit to go features the fun & unique Playful Patterns designer paper.  It's perfect for so many happy occasions. 

    I created 10 cards for this cards kit to go in the beautiful array of colors in the designer paper. 

    Aren't they neat?!  This paper totally inspired me to create fun, playful cards.  I only used a few inks too!  Night of Navy, Coastal Cabana, and Crushed Curry! 

    This kit to go includes $20 in product and the 10 cards pre-cut also.  Here's what's included:

    • 1/2 package of the 6" Playful Patterns designer paper
    • 1 full package of the Playful Patterns ribbon combo pack
    • 1/2 pkg. of the Playful Patterns Resin Dots
    • the 10 pre-cut cards including punched & die-cut pieces
    • the pdf written tutorial sent in an email

    I used the Many Mates stamp set to finish the cards.  If you'd like to add it on you can get it at 10% off with the kit. 


    This pre-cut kits are available through August 20th.  But there is an option to get the Playful Patterns cards pdf tutorial without the kit too. 

    • $28 for the full kit to go; order here.
    • $60 for the full kit and the Many Mates stamp set here
    • $15 for the Tutorial here


    I actually have two kits available in August.  If you want both this kit to go AND the Life is Beautiful kit seen here send me a note and I can combine shipping and save you some money!  Send to lagreff60@gmail.com for a combined shipping price.

  • Holiday Catalog starts today! Check out this Love of Leaves card


    It's August!  And the new 2020 August – December catalog (I'm calling it the 2020 Holiday catalog)

    is live! 

    Click here to see the catalog and here to shop. 


    I'm hosting my Holiday Catalog Open House Wednesday from 2-6:30 pm.  If you're local, stop in and pick up your catalog, browse the displays, check out the ordering specials and of course eat some yummy treats.

    I will share the displays in a video on my FB page this week!

    Here's a card I made for an online swap featuring the new Love of Leaves bundle seen here.  

    I got the idea from a card in the catalog but changed it up quite a bit.  I added a piece of the beautiful Gilded Autumn Specialty designer paper behind the die-cut leaf.  Can you see the stitching around the stitched Rectangle window?  These Stitched Leaves dies stitch on the outside and on the leaf itself!  They're amazing!  

    The colors here are Mint Macaron, Soft Suede & Cajun Craze.  I'll post the card I made with the die-cut leaf itself soon.
