March 2, 2026

Today is the last day of the February/March specials!

Be sure to use your bonus coupons by today.

And also if you want the new Stampin’ Positioner FREE grab the Starter kit today!

Here’s the card I featured on last week’s video. We made it at my February card clubs locally and it was a big hit!

My colors include Lost Lagoon, Pecan Pie & Basic Beige. There are two different pieces of the designer paper that’s called Nature Walk and can be seen here.

There are lots of pieces and extra elements to this card. It was super fun to put together. That neat striped embossing folder on the extra Lost Lagoon layer is called Lovely Stripes and can be seen here. It’s one of my new favorites.

This card is kept closed by the narrow ‘flap’ attached to the right side of the card. I added a small triangle to the DSP layer to tuck the corner into. Works great To hold that flap down!

The flap is adhered ‘underneath’ the DSP layer inside the card. *note the other embossing folder used on the card above. It’s called Stone & Vine and is also a deeply textured folder seen here.

There are many, many details on this card I want to highlight. Here goes:

The die-cut leaves and ‘wood’ piece under the greeting are from the Nature’s Symphony bundle seen here.
The die-cut leaves are cut out from our two-sided card stock. I love that you can choose the light or the dark side which gives more color choices!
I added Pecan Pie ink to that wood die-cut with a blending brush.
The greeting is from the Three Banner punch bundle seen here.

I created a free project sheet you can print or download. Click to see it.

Below is the video tutorial for this card; I hope you watch it as I give multiple tips and ways to make your crafting process easier.

Dressed to Impress Best Dressed Triple Fold card

April 22, 2020

The retired list will be out this afternoon.

Stop back in to see it or click here to see it all in my store.

Here's the Best Dressed fun fold card I promised you yesterday. (See the Ornate Garden cards here.)

Look at this cute fun fold card! See how the paper matches up across the three panels? So clever! **Watch the video here on Facebook.

This card is standard 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" but you score it at 1 1/2" and 4 1/4" to get the triple fold.

Save

The best part of this fun fold card is how it makes the most of your designer paper! Each card uses one piece measuring 5 1/4" X 6". Cut the Best Dressed paper into three pieces; the first (left) piece at 2 3/4" wide X 5 1/4" tall, the middle piece at 1 1/8" wide and the right (inside) piece at 2 1/8" X 5 1/4".

Those three pieces add up to 6" across! What a great way to use your designer paper! You can make 4 cards from a 12" sheet! The white layer inside the card (for writing or stamping onto) is 5 1/4" X 1 3/4".

Save

I added a pretty die-cut border cut from the Ornate Borders die; love the eyelet detail on it! The set of dies are currently unavailable but should be back in stock in early May.
The greeting layers are cut using the Stitched Nested Labels and the flowers and leaves are stamped and fussy cut. The colors are Old Olive and Purple Posy.

The stamps are all from the Dressed to Impress stamp set seen here.

Save

The die-cuts here are from the Stitched So Sweetly dies from the mini catalog; also currently out of stock and unavailable. They should be back in next week. The colors here are Lovely Lipstick and Mint Macaron.

Ornate Thanks & Ornate Borders with a clever fun fold idea

April 21, 2020

I shared these two pretty cards on my Facebook Live last Tuesday. (Click here to see my page.) I made another version using the Best Dressed designer paper. I'll share those tomorrow.

They are made from a standard 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" piece of card stock but you add a second score to it. It's scored on the long side at 1 1/2" and 4 1/4".

The best part of this fun fold card is how it makes the most of your designer paper! Each card uses one piece measuring 5 1/4" X 6". Cut it into three pieces; the first (left) piece at 2 3/4" wide X 5 1/4" tall, the middle piece at 1 1/8" wide and the right (inside) piece at 2 1/8" X 5 1/4".

Those three pieces add up to 6" across! What a great way to use your designer paper! You can make 4 cards from a 12" sheet!

The white layer inside the card (for writing or stamping onto) is 5 1/4" X 1 3/4". I used the To a Wild Rose stamp set for the greeting. The leaves and greeting die-cut are from the popular Painted Labels dies (now available again!!!)

Here's a close up view of the greeting. It looks like I heat embossed it right?

Save

I didn't but it is sparkly! I used the Wink of Stella pen! It's fun to trace the stamped greeting; it's large enough that it was easy to do.

You can find this pretty Ornate Garden specialty paper and the entire Ornate Garden suite of products here.

Save

This card base is Terracotta Tile; one of our 2019-21 In Colors. I paired it with Mint Macaron card stock.

Save

I added an extra Ornate Border trim on the inside of the card too. You might be able to spot more Wink of Stella on the designer paper and I added it to the die-cuts too. See that pretty Terracotta Tile ribbon? It's part of the Ornate Garden ribbon combo pack with Old Olive. Gorgeous soft 1/4" ribbons!

Save

The label and leafy die-cuts here are from the To a Wild Rose bundle seen here.
