I shared this super cute fun fold card on last week's Live video. It has lots of layers but it's so easy to make!  

Save

Besides the bright, happy holiday colors in the Take a Bow DSP I love that this fun fold uses your cardstock efficiently. Each diagonally cut card base is one half of an 8 1/2" X 11" sheet of CS. I forgot to take a photo of this aspect but I do share it in the video seen here. 

Below is a photo that shows how it opens and the pocket available for the optional gift card.

Save

My colors include Real Red & Garden Green with White. The diagonal layers are also easy to do.  Start with a rectangle and cut it in half on the diagonal making sure you cut it to match the diagonal. 

My greeting & White die-cut is from the Christmas Labels bundle which is on the Last Chance list right now. See it here. 

The Red die-cut is from Greetings of the Season dies and the pine bough die-cuts are from the Winterly Tree Tops and made from the Festive Glimmer paper. 

Save

I added a double bow made from Red &  White Baker's Twine and Peppermint dots that are currently unavailable but will return at the end of December.  *They are NOT on the Last Chance list so they should be available for awhile!

I created a free project sheet you can print or download for this fun fold card. Click on the following link to get it.  Download Take a Bow November 2024

Below is the video I made for this card and another super quick fun fold card. Both of these make great use of your designer paper!  I hope you watch and make some.

• Happy Thanksgiving!

  November 26, 2020

  ---

  I hope you can enjoy a very Happy Thanksgiving today!  I know many of us cannot be with the family or friends like we're used to.  It's so difficult with this pandemic; tough times and even tougher decisions! 

  I received this cute card from my friend Pat this week.  I wanted to share it with you with my seasonal wishes for you and your family. 

  Save

  She used my Million Dollar stamp set; Life is Beautiful seen here.  You might think this is for Halloween; but she has a two black cats and I have one so this fit us both! 

  If you aren't on Facebook you might not know about my stamp set challenge.  I found out how many of these stamp sets have been sold so far worldwide and had my FB Live followers guess.  What's your guess??   

  Save

  As of two weeks ago Stampin' Up! has sold over 16,000 sets!  That's 176% over their predicted amount!  Whoop!  I'm thrilled with how you all like it!

  I bet this year many of us will be giving gift cards more than ever.  This social distancing is hard but during the Holiday's it's going to be so tough!  If you are missing celebrating with your family this year I feel for you.  Holidays are meant to be enjoyed together. But if it keeps us and them safe I'm sure it's the right decision. But we don't have to like it, right?! 

  Here's a fun gift card holder you can make to give those gift cards in. 

  Save

  I made one during last week's Facebook Live but you can see the video below, or here on my YouTube Channel.

  • 5” X 4 ¼” – score at ½” and 2 ¾", *get 4 from one sheet of CS
  • White tag – 2” X 6” scored at 4”, Black band is 1” X 5”
  • White rectangle die-cut (Stitched So Sweetly) is 2 3/4" X 1 5/8"

  Tag Buffet stamp set, Stitched So Sweetly Dies, Fancy Tag Topper Punch, Red, White & Black CS, Blends markers, rhinestones
