Neat Fun Fold swaps by my Flowerbug’s Team

Our Team gathering and swap was this past weekend and our theme was to use designer paper.  

This first card was made by Marla and features the Countryside Inn DSP.  

June Marla Countryside Inn Save
It looks like an ordinary gatefold card, but it's not!  It latches closed with the heart & leaf punches on the right side! 

Measurements are as follows:

  • Card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 3" and 8 1/2"
  • Designer paper is 2 3/4" X 4" on the left and 2 1/4" X 4" on the right.  *same on the inside

It's hard to tell in the photo but the top right corner of the large, layered die-cut catches under the punched pieces on the upper right of the card base.  So cool and smart!  I love it when a fun fold card stays closed easily.  

She featured the Countryside Inn designer paper seen here.  If you love blues, you need this pretty paper! And it's on sale in June – down from $12.50 to $10.62 now.   

She also added more of the pretty paper inside her card.

Next is a sweet card by Candy – (see what I did there?)  She featured the Zoo Crew designer paper and Zany Zoo bundle. She colored each of those flowers with a Blends marker!

It's a 'book-binding' card fold.  Start out with a 4 1/4" X 11" card base; score at 4 1/4" & 5 1/2". You'll adhere the 'binding' area down so the card opens at the 4 1/4" score line.  

Her coloring is beautiful; I believe she used Blends markers.  

The embossing folder is the Countryside Blossoms and the stitched circles and banner are from the Stylish Shapes dies. 

I'll share more team swaps tomorrow!

  • Look what you can do with the Charming Landscapes embossing folders

    I shared a fun way to use the Charming Landscapes embossing folders in this week's FB Live video.  Look! 

    Charming Landscapes Save

    After I textured White card stock with the folders I trimmed the excess off and adhered it over a piece of Lights Aglow designer paper and then onto my White card base.  So simple with just a little bit of fussy cutting.  See the Charming Landscapes embossing duo here.

    The greeting is from the Brightest Glow stamp set, heat embossed with Gold embossing powder.  A few loops of gold cording is added to the back.  

    Here's another version; a bit more fussy cutting on this one though!

    This one did take more time to trim….  I added light So Saffron Blends marker and Wink of Stella to the little village houses.

    What do you think?  I love the elegance of the Black, White & Gold colors.

    Below is the video where I show these cards and a special fun fold card too.  All made with the beautiful Lights Aglow specialty designer paper seen here.

    This month one of my kits to go features the Santa Express Memories & More cards seen here.  I sincerely enjoy playing with these cards & the many extra elements included in them.  

    Besides the 10 cards & envelopes they'll make with the kit and PDF tutorial I've created some bonus cards they can make as well.  Here's a peek at them:

    There's no stamping on any of these; all greetings and layered pieces are from the kit itself.  

    Notice the cursive words and the stars?  These are wooden elements included in the kit!  I colored them with Blends markers.  They're actually nice and thin; maybe around 1/16" in height.  

    Here's a link to this kit to go. It's while supplies last; so opt in soon!

  • Scary Cute ‘side step’ fun fold card by Sharon!

    Sharon shared this card with us at our last Team Meeting.  It's adorable!!

    Scary Cute card Sharon Save

    Her colors are Rich Razzleberry, Black & Granny Apple Green.  

    She said she cased it from Tammy White.  The card base is all one piece.  It's called a side-step card and here is a link to a tutorial I wrote years ago.  She used the Scary Silhouette dies for the left side and the Bewitching stamp set for the hat & boots on the right.  

    The hat & boots are popped up on the steps with thin strips of window sheets.  There is white glimmer paper behind the die-cuts on the front.  I love the say she achieved the silhouette under the Black layer.  She did this by snipping the green die-cut in half on the sides and moving it down from the top and up from the bottom.
