New Nature’s Symphony top fold card with free project sheet & video tutorial

December 29, 2025

I hope you had a very Merry Christmas last week. We sure did but we missed our youngest son & his wife. They were hit with the flu the day they were going to drive up here. It wasn’t the same without them! But we still had our Appetizer Showdown competition and played lots of games including our annual Minute to Win It games. Always lots of laughs! I highly recommend doing these with family or friends. It’s one of our highlights of the time we spend together.

I shared this easy fun fold card on last week’s Live video. It features new product from the upcoming 2026 Spring catalog.

I featured the Nature’s Symphony bundle and the new Nature’s Walk DSP. I cannot share links to these products because they’re not available for customers quite yet. Tomorrow on my week’s Live video I’ll share all of my new products from both the Spring catalog and the newest Online products – both coming out in early January. Join me here.

My colors include Pretty Peacock, Lost Lagoon and Old Olive with White. Besides the Nature’s Symphony bundle I added a die-cut for the greeting from the Textured Notes dies seen here.

This card is an easy fun fold layout. The back is simply 4 1/4″ X 5 1/2″ and the center is a full 3 1/4″ X 11″ scored at 5 1/2″. It gives you a large area to add your patterned paper on the front. I made many of these cards for a long distance swap I joined in.

I created a free project sheet for this card Click here to download or print it. There’s also a video tutorial below as well.

The Nature’s Walk designer paper is filled with textured patterns. I love the colors in it; the blues & greens are just my style.

Here’s the video tutorial for you. I also share another pretty card idea featuring this beautiful bundle.

Fun Treat box made from our Acetate Card Boxes

September 21, 2021

Did you know we carry the perfect size clear box for gifting a set of A2 cards? You can see them here or on page 137 of the annual catalog. They fit about 4 cards inside depending on how many layers there are.

Save

Well Marilyn cut one box in half and created this adorable treat box for her Card Club friends!

Save

It features the Cute Halloween designer paper and Frightfully Cute stamp set.

There's a template for the card stock below. She used the Basic Border dies (seen here) to cut the bottom edge but you wouldn't have to. If you don't use the Basic Borders Dies on the edge, you could cut the 5-1/2" down to 5".

She filled it with lots of treats & embellishments. It also fits an entire full size Kit Kat bar!

Save

She uses a mini velcro dot for closure. The card stock is actually inserted inside the box and mini glue dots are used to keep it in place.

Save

And here's the template for the card stock insert.

Be Dazzling specialty paper is sold out! Fabulous Summer Shadow dies projects with video!

September 17, 2021

I cannot believe the many ways you can use these Summer Shadow dies seen here! I shared two bright, fun cards yesterday here and have more yet today.

Save

I sure love the leaves in Coastal Cabana & Pool Party! The flowers are Melon Mambo & Blushing Bride.

Save

The greeting is from the coordinating stamp set in the Annual Catalog called Shaded Summer seen here. I love the greetings & font in this set! That heat embossed greeting/die-cut is from the Messages die.

Save

Next up I created some colorful cards using the Sale-a-Bration Be Dazzling specialty designer paper. As of today this paper is SOLD OUT unfortunately. They did predict they'd run out of this paper before Sale-a-Bration is over.

Just so you know, these Summer Shadow dies (and the Sheep dies) are also expected to run out!

Save

I used Blends markers to color my flowers. You can see this in the video below. The card base is Granny Apple Green and the vertical strips are Poppy Parade on the left & Magenta Madness on the right.

Save

Which is your favorite?

Save

I'm so sorry that this gorgeous paper is unavailable now. I hope most of you ordered it while you could!

Below is the video where I share lots of cards featuring the Summer Shadow dies and the Shaded Summer stamp set. Click on the photo to watch.
