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!

  • Easy Diagonal cards; Stamp With Me tonight at 7:30 pm!


    This week I'm highlighting some of the cards I've recently made on Facebook Live.  With two a week there's a lot! 

    Here are the cards for tonight's Facebook Live 'Stamp with Me' here. 

    I chose the pretty Misty Moonlight & Seaside Spray combination for these cards.  I love the two toned look of these In Colors together.  When you add White for a pop of brightness they really shine!  

    Join me here tomorrow night.  Prep the pieces, gather some supplies and we'll stamp together! 

    I used the Queen Anne's Lace stamp set seen here in Misty Moonlight, White & Seaside Spray.
