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.

• Apple Harvest Fun Fold card

  September 28, 2022

  ---

  We made this sweet Apple Harvest card at my card clubs in September.  I love the bright colors paired with Black!

  The colors include Parakeet Party, Real Red and Black.  As you can see I gave them a choice of apple images on the front. The left card above has the large apple bunch and the right card below has a pair of apples with blossoms.  And inside the card is a single apple. 

  The Apple Harvest stamp set is in the 2022 Holiday catalog.  The new Apple Blossom dies that coordinate with it are available in September with our Perfect Partners promotion.  See them here. 

  All were colored with Blends markers – Parakeet Party, Crumb Cake & Sweet Sorbet.  I added a bit of color lifter on the large red apples to achieve a look of shine & reflection.
