Noel Tidings fun fold Christmas card with video & free project sheet

September 14, 2026

Here’s the card I shared on last week’s video; it’s one I made for a long distance card swap I joined.

It features the Neutral Noel suite seen here. I used the Noel Tidings bundle along with the Neutral Noel specialty designer paper seen here. My colors include Shaded Spruce, White and Gold.

Notice the textures on the Shaded Spruce and White layers. These are new embossing folders from the 2026 Holiday catalog; however both are unavailable right now. They’re out of stock but returning later this month.

*Remember that when you want to know when something is back in stock you can opt in to be notified; this is right on the product item page online. See the Rustic Check folder here and the Softly Woven folder here.

This card opens in a unique way; the center panel is attached to the right side instead of the usual left side. It’s fun to switch things up now & then.

I stamped the pine boughs and the greetings using the Noel Tidings stamp set; the dies coordinate with many of the images. See the bundle here.

I shared how to make this card on last week’s video. You can see it here or click on the link below.

I also created a free project sheet with measurements. Click here to download or print it. *Remember that I have a bunch of these free project sheets stored on my blog here.

Below is the video tutorial for this card. You’ll get a few stamping tips from me as usual.

I still have spots left in my Holiday designer paper share. Opt in for it here; it’s the last share I’ll offer this year.

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.)

Save

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.

See the entire Best Dressed suite of products here.

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.
