  • Greeting is from Throughout the Year set (2023 Holiday catalog)
  • Greeting die-cuts are from the Nested Essential dies

Here is the other card I shared:

This card shows off the Magical Meadow bundle in the greeting and pretty die-cuts.

  • The last of the Beautiful Fun Fold card swaps


    This is the last bunch of Fun Fold cards this week; each one has been made by my talented Flowerbug's Team.  

    Sue made this pretty and unique card using the Positive Thought stamp set. 

    She is super creative and loves to create her own ideas.  Look at this unique card!

    She used the Positive Thoughts stamp set and the Cross of Hope dies (on sale right now for just $10.80; they were $27.00!)

  • 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!

  • Wow; don’t miss these Fun Fold cards!


    Each day this week I'm sharing the Fun Fold card swaps made by my incredibly talented Flowerbug's!  We hold a card swap every month and many opt in to participate.  See the others here and here. 

    First up is Annette's Kite Fold card!

    I know many of you will want to know how to make it so I searched and found this template at Beccy's Place.  She has a tutorial for it here.  Her card is a full sized card where Annette's was placed on a layer of her card.  So the finished size may be different. 

    Annette adhered her kite to a base card of Blueberry Bushel at 5 1/2" X 4 1/4" and White at 5 1/4" X 4" .  She also added a velcro closure to keep the card closed securely.

    I think the tail of ribbon and twine finish it off like a kit perfectly!

    ~~~

    Karen made this adorable card with the Follow Your Art suite of products seen here!   I believe almost all of the products in this suite are retiring with many on sale; the stamps & dies, the designer paper (on sale for just $4.60 now!), the embellishment kit and the embossing folder too.  It's such a fun group of products; great for crafters! 

    The Follow Your Art embellishment kit comes with lots of fun accents including these stitched felt pieces!  Its on sale right now on the Last Chance list here. 

    Measurements:

    • Calypso Coral base 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"
    • Designer paper is 4" X 5 1/4"
    • White is 2 1/2" X 8 1/4" scored at 4 1/8"
