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.

• One Sheet Purse mini album; Double free Sale-a-Bration choices ends tomorrow!

  March 30, 2020

  ---

  Here's a cute one sheet mini album you can make with one 12 X 12" designer paper sheet.  I made it during a recent Facebook Live.  See the video here. 

  
  
  
  
  
  

  I chose to use the Pleased as Punch Designer Series paper. It coordinates with four of our current punches; the Umbrella, Tulip, Small Blooms and Heart punch pack.  This paper is only available through March!  See it here and get it while you can. 

  
  
  
  
  
  

  The finished size is about 4" X 3". You can add photos anywhere including inside the pockets. 

  
  
  
  
  
  

  I used the Under My Umbrella bundle (seen here) and the Small Blooms punch for the flowers.  I rounded the corners with the Detailed Trio punch. 

  
  
  
  
  
  

  
  
  
  
  
  

  Measurements:

  • Start with an 8 X 12" sheet of paper
  • Score it at 4" on one side horizontally (Be aware of the direction of your paper!)
  • Rotate the paper and score it at 3", 6" and 9".  Cut up to the score line.  (See video; it starts about 19 minutes in.) 
  • The cover/wrap is 4" X 8 1/2"

• Honey Bee Fun Fold-card with Golden Honey paper

  March 27, 2020

  ---

  Here's a unique fun fold card that's super easy too!  We made them at my March card clubs.  

  They had a choice of colors, either Pineapple Punch or Lovely Lipstick to go with the Golden Honey specialty designer paper. Unfortunately this gorgeous paper is no longer available; they ran out of it a few weeks ago.  It was free during our Sale-a-Bration promotion that is still happening!  Be sure to get your favorites while supplies last and before March is over!  

  
  
  
  
  
  

  On the above card we stamped the hive in Pineapple Punch and added a few die-cut bees and a greeting.   Here's the inside view: 

  
  
  
  
  
  

  And below is the Lovely Lipstick version.  Each of the cards uses the Honey Bee bundle seen on page 30 of your January – June mini catalog.  Click here to see it online.  The Detailed Bee dies have been unavailable for a few weeks but I hope they'll be back soon!  

  
  
  
  
  
  

  And below you can see the video I made for this fun fold card.  

  Measurements:
  Black CS 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 1 3/8" and 2 3/4" from each end, 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" for front
  Honey Bee Designer paper – upper piece is 2 3/4" X 5 1/4", lower is 1 1/2" X 5 1/4"
  Pineapple or Lovely Lipstick CS strip is 1/2" X 5 1/2", 2 3/4" X 3 3/4" for die-cut oval
  White scrap 2 3/4" X 3 3/4" for oval die-cut, inside is 4" X 5 1/4", greeting strip is 3/4" X 3" and
  scraps for bees
