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

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.

• A NEW catalog bundle – Timeless Arrangements. And a NEW Designer Paper share too!

  April 26, 2023

  If you're near me in Minot, ND I hope you'll plan to come to my New Catalog Launch party on Saturday, April 29th.  It's at 1st Lutheran Church from 10-12:30 pm.

  I have been prepping and working hard on samples, displays, special offers and more. I love to spoil my customers with yummy treats too!

  Would you like to receive every sheet of designer paper in the new Annual Catalog?  I'm doing my usual designer paper share with the new catalog. It includes 12 different packs of NEW DSP.

  It's called Timeless Arrangements and Demonstrators could pre-order it before the catalog launches on May 2nd for customers.  It was one of my top choices; I've made at least 4 cards with it so far and will be sharing them with you in the next week. 

  My colors include Starry Sky, White and Fresh Freesia.  I paired it with a new package of 6 X 6" designer paper called Bright & Beautiful. 

  Here's how I stamped the inside.  I used two of the foliage images on one block and stamped them repeatedly in first and second generation.

  I shared another version in my video yesterday; see it here.  This card features Petal Pink with Starry Sky along with a bit of Calypso Coral. Which do you prefer?

• Dainty Delight swap with a few new colors!

  April 25, 2023

  ---

  Here's my swap for our Flowerbug's 'Fancy Border' theme.  I chose to use the returning color 'Berry Burst' with Black & White.  

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  The embossing folder is called Painted Texture 3D; you can see it here.

  Tip: Need thread or twine to add to your card? I used thread from our White 3/4" Frayed Ribbon under my greeting.  I simply pulled one thread from the ribbon end, smoothed it out with my fingers, and would it into a circle. 

  The flower & leaves die-cuts are from the Dainty Delight bundle; as well as the pretty greeting.  See it here.  The stamp set & dies are carrying over into the new Annual Catalog however they will no longer be a bundle at 10% off.

  New items: 

  1. A few flowers are in one of our newest In Colors – Moody Mauve. 
  2. The greeting die-cut is from the new Timeless Arrangements. 

  See the Basic Border dies here:  I love these dies; they're so versatile.  I'm so glad they are carrying over into the new Annual catalog.

  Here are the last two swap cards made by my Flowerbug's Team for our 'Fancy Borders' swap in April. 

  This first card was made by Sharon. She used the Textured Chic DSP (retired/sold out) and the Around the Bend bundle seen here.

  Love the multiple curvy scalloped borders!! Her colors include Petal Pink, Soft Succulent and Calypso Coral. She also used the Two-Tone Flora bundle seen here.  This is returning in the new catalog but it will no longer be a bundle at 10% off.
