NEAT Center Pop-up Fun Fold card with video & free project sheet


I hope you're enjoying your holiday weekend.  We are having a quiet one at home, getting yard work done and also enjoying time off together. We've had lovely rain lately. The grass is green and I hope my garden takes off once the weather warms up a bit. 

On last week's Live I made a super neat fun fold card.  This photo shows the card front which starts out as a gatefold card. 

I chose the Wildflower Designs bundle because it seems to have everything I like in a bundle – florals & botanicals, lovely greetings and wonderful dies too.  

The designer paper is the Country Woods seen here.  It's currently unavailable as they ran out of stock. But it should be back within a week or so.  That pretty die-cut circle is from the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here.  Love these dies so much! 

Here's what it look like open: 

I was inspired by two of my team members to try this fun fold card layout.  I thought it looked quite complicated but they assured me it wasn't.  They were right!  It was just a few extra score and cut lines. I hope you'll watch the video below to see how it's done.  

The center dies are included in the Wildflower Designs bundle seen here.  All of these patterns are included in the Country Woods designer series paper pack. No wonder it's already sold out!  

 

Compare these cards; I changed both the front and the inside.

  • From the North Pole bonus card; so cute! Refills are available!


    I had time to play with the latest Paper Pumpkin kit this weekend – From the North Pole.  From the hint they gave us beforehand I knew the tags would be cute! 

    If you don't like or need tags, they can easily be changed into Christmas cards.  This kit is available in a refill for just $11 while supplies last. The refill kit does not include the stamp set or ink spot and is only available to current Paper Pumpkin subscribers.  Here's a link to it.  

    Each month I send my subscribers AND my Team alternate projects using elements in the latest Paper Pumpkin kit.  I share lots of ideas for bonus cards or scrapbook ideas.  

    Here's one of my projects using the 'From the North Pole' kit:  

    I always enjoy stamping my own background; the candy cane & dot are stamps from the kit.  I used Sweet Sorbet and White Craft ink. I added the card base and the two card stock strips – the Mint layer is textured with the Gingham embossing folder.  Everything else is from the kit. 

    Another bonus product available to current PP subscribers are these awesome Good Things cards and envelopes seen here:

    It includes 20 cards, 5 each of 4 designs &20 matching envelopes – all for just $10!  You must be a current subscriber to get these.  There are perks to subscribing!  These coordinate with the upcoming Good Things come in Small Packages kit – it's filled with gift card boxes.  Cut off date to receive this kit is December 10th.

  • Vertical Slider card – a neat and easy fun fold with video


    Tomorrow on December 1st there are two wonderful things happening; deals you won't want to miss!

    There will be a Clearance Rack refresh AND the Last Chance list starts too. BOTH of these will have numerous products discounted up to 60%. 


    I'm not sure what will be on the Clearance Rack but I do know what's on the Last chance list.  Download 2022 Holiday Catalog Last Chance here

    Go here to see them all Thursday, December 1st.

    I am loving this Vertical slider fun fold design!  I've made two so far and I can easily see me making more.  

    It basically a gatefold card but the additional layer holds it closed. 

    I chose quite unique colors for the Scottie dog.  Think of it as a stuffed animal; ha!  The colors include Pool Party, Petal Pink and Pumpkin Pie.  I wanted to use the Metallic & Shimmer 6 X 6" DSP; I think it's perfect for a celebratory card with the shimmer & dots.  

    The Scottie Dog punch is 30% off starting December 1st; instead of $19, it will be $13.30!  

    For the inside I used the ribbon image from the Christmas Scottie stamp set and the greeting is from Charming Sentiments.  

    The main element comes off when you open the card; plus it slides up and down too.   It consists of three 2 1/4" circles.  2 are scored in half and adhered to the back of the main element.  Then the last one is adhered over both folded circles.  

    What do you think?  Do the colors work for you?  

    Measurements:

    • Petal Party card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" from each end
    • White 2 5/8" square
    • Pumpkin 2 3/4" square
    • Pool Party 2 7/8" square 
    • DSP 1 7/8" X 5 1/4"

    In the video below I share another version of this Vertical Slider card; plus another special fold and easy treat bags.
