Nothing’s Better Than fun fold card with video!

We made this CUTE card at my August Card Clubs with the Nothing's Better Than bundle seen here.  

Save

It's a triple flap gate-fold card!  It's super easy to make and fun to open too.  Check out the measurements AND the video below. Be sure to read the front AND the inside below. This stamp set is just plain FUN! 

I chose to use Early Espresso with Coastal Cabana and Crushed Curry. To get a lighter hue for the chocolate and cookies images I stamped off the Early Espresso ink first.  Is it just me or do some of these images remind you of the Jetsons cartoon show?

Measurements:

– Early Espresso 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" from each end

– Whisper White 1 1/2" X 3 3/4" (3 pieces) plus scraps for added die-cut images

– Coastal Cabana & Crushed Curry 1 5/8" X 3 7/8" (3 total pieces)

• Everyday Details Fun Fold card

  January 2, 2024

  ---

  I hope you enjoyed your New Year's weekend. We had a nice 3 day weekend with no plans at all. My husband was in the mood to clean and organize so we did lots of cleaning, boxing up donated items and taking down outside Christmas lights.

  Plus we made some fabulous meals, put together a puzzle and watched some of our favorite shows. I love a relaxing yet productive weekend! 

  ~~~

  This is one of the swap cards I made last month.  I joined 6 swaps and had to make around 18-22 of each. 

  Save

  It features the new Everyday Details bundle and the new Rock & Roll designer paper. Both are new products in our upcoming 2024 Spring catalog – it goes live on Thursday, January 4th!   

  I stamped the nest image on one of the die-cuts in the bundle and the greeting on another.

  Other details:

  • White card base is 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 3" & 7 1/4"
  • Rock & Roll DSP is 2 3/4" X 5 1/4"

• Happy New Year!! Sharing a successful Fundraising Event!

  I thought I'd share the event we held on December 16th. My local friends and I held a big fundraising Holiday Bazaar to benefit a few local non-profit organizations.

  Save

  It was held at our church and as you can see it was jam packed with fabulous handmade crafts & goodies. We offered tons of crafts, gifts, handmade cards, baked & home-canned goods, cookie trays & more.  Plus we had a silent auction, vendors and lunch! 

  It was a great success as we raised over $3200 for our charities! It was a fun-filled day and the time & effort was well worth it to support our local non-profits.
