Neat fun fold card 3 ways! With free tutorial & video

February 9, 2026

We made this special card at my January card clubs. They could choose between 3 colors and themes too!

I featured the Addressed to You stamp set for all three cards. See the cute ovals & rectangle with the ‘filled in’ images on the right? Those are all part of this unique stamp set! See it here.

I used the retiring Textured Notes dies seen here. They’re the stitched edge rectangle dies used twice on this card. They are on the last chance list right now and reduced in price too!

This card opens with a type of flip/flap feel. Here’s how we cut off the tabs on the card base. Once you score your card you’ll make a pencil mark from the top and bottom at 1″. Then trim off the corners.

My colors include Pool Party, White and either Pretty in Pink, Fresh Freesia or Peach Pie.

I created a free project sheet for this card with measurements, supplies and step by step directions. Click here to print or download it.

More details:

I used the images that finished the lined oval & rectangle to decorate the inside ‘left’ edge on the cards.
We used Blends markers to color in the small images.
The DSP is the Beach Boardwalk designer paper for the left edge.
The greetings are from the stamp set called ‘The Right Words’ seen here. It’s one of my favorite greeting sets.

I was in the middle of the video tutorial for this card but the video failed right before I started the project. And I made my last packet. So I do not have a video for it. But hopefully the project sheet above helps you out.

Expressions in Kindness kit is back! And the sale ends today!

October 31, 2024

The Expressions in Kindness card kit is gorgeous! Look at these stunning cards…..

Save

This beautiful kit has been out of stock for many weeks. I'm so glad it's back in time for the kit promotion. It was $23 and is now $20.70 but that price ends today! See it here.

The kit is meant to make 8 cards but one set of the card bases is printed on both sides. I couldn't waste it so I trimmed it to add to both White & Blackberry Bliss card bases. I did have to add two greeting labels to get 12 finished cards but that's all I added besides extra envelopes.

Save

Here are the other 2 sets of cards; I didn't change much.

Save

Our kits are all inclusive which means everything is included including a stamp set, Blackberry Bliss ink spot, envelopes, gems, ribbon and adhesives.

Even though I consider myself an experienced stamper I love our kits. They give me a chance to create without a lot of prep or planning. They're great for gifts or last minute crafting.

Last of our Team swaps include a neat technique and a fun fold

October 30, 2024
Today I'm sharing the last three card swaps from my Team in October. Our theme was winter or Christmas.

First is Roxann's card. It's a Christmas village scene!

Save

She used the Yuletide Village stamp set seen here. She also used the Falling Snow background stamp; which she heat embossed with White powder.

She fussy cut all of these homes, church and trees! It's so pretty and real looking!

~~~

Next is a fantastic technique made by Tracey. You might think she used designer paper here…..

Save

It's not! She made her own stamped background using watercolor paper and three colors of ink. Here's how she did it:

She thoroughly wet the watercolor paper before stamping the snowflake images in the following inks: Pool Party (looks like green here), Balmy Blue & Boho Blue. When you stamp on the wet paper the ink travels and blends together but leaves a faint impression of the snowflake images sometimes. Simply gorgeous!

The snowflake die-cuts are from the Frozen Edges dies seen here. The greeting and snowflake images are from the Sparkling Snowflakes stamp set seen here.

Measurements of the layers are as follows:
- Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" score at 4 1/4", Textured white layer 5 3/8" X 4 1/8", greeting strip 5 1/2" X 1"
- Blue background is 4 1/8" X 3 1/4"
- Watercolor paper strips – left to right – 1/2" X 3 1/2", 3/4" X 3 1/2", 1" X 3 1/2" and 1 1/2" X 3 1/2"

Next is a pretty fun fold made by Rita.

Save

She used the Winter Meadow designer paper and the Encircled in Nature dies (seen here) for her trees. The front panel (White) is adhered to a flap that is part of the card base. It's a neat fold!

Her card base measures 11" X 4 1/4", score at 2 1/4" & 5 1/2". Then make a mark at 1" from the top and 1" from the bottom on the 2 1/4" score line. You'll trim off the outer portion and that creates a flap for the White layer which measures 3 1/4" X 2".
