Pinwheel Tower Fancy Fold card with video & free projects sheet!


Here's another card we made at my July Card Clubs.  I always try to feature one fun fold card and this was a doozy!  

When they saw the many pieces they were a bit worried it would be hard.  But as we made it together they loved it!  Be sure to watch the video here or below; it's so much easier than it looks!  

This card is super fun to play with; it reminds me of a 'never ending' card.  You can turn and turn it and see something new each time. But the finished card lays flat and is 5 1/2" X 4 1/4" so it fits nicely in an envelope.  

Besides the Gorgeously Made stamp set (seen here) I chose the Layering Leaves (seen here) for the pretty greetings and leaf images. 

I chose to feature the Countryside Inn designer series paper seen here with it's many shades of Blue.  I chose to use Night of Navy and White card stock, Navy and Boho Blue inks. 

You can find the measurement, photos, directions and supplies list here on this free project sheet. Download July 23 Pinwheel Tower card

Each of the 4 panels of Navy card stock is adhered to the center 'tower' made from a 4 1/4" square of designer paper. Once you have your card base created it's simple to add the 6 pieces of DSP and your stamped panels. 

I also used the Radiating Stitches dies seen here (online exclusive) and the Stylish Shapes dies for the greeting.  The ribbon is the Night of Navy 3/8" bordered ribbon.

    Today I have a few more beautiful card swaps from my Flowerbug's Team.  

    First is Jacki's card featuring the Forever Fern bundle.  

    She used two new In Colors; Misty Moonlight with Just Jade.  The stamps are distinktive and the die-cuts in the Forever Flourishing dies are incredible!  I love the touch of vellum she added. 

    Marilyn made this pretty card using the Posted For You stamp set.  This one coordinates with the new Rectangular Postage punch. 

    Her colors are Misty Moonlight with Seaside Spray and a touch of Old Olive.  She colored the images in with Blends markers. The greeting is from the Forever Fern stamp set. 

    Next is Karen's card. She used the Flowers for Every Season designer paper and it is the star of the card. 

    The greeting is from the Celebrate Sunflowers set and that neat scalloped die-cut is from the Tasteful Labels dies.

  • Flowers for Every Season & more!


    Here are more of our Flowerbug Team swap cards featuring the new In Colors. 

    First is a card made by Mary with the Flowers for Every Season designer paper in Just Jade.

    Sweet & Simple letting the designer paper be the star of the card. The greeting is from So Sentimental and the die-cut is from Stitched So Sweetly. 

    Next is a card by Paula using the Tasteful Labels dies and the Flowers for Every Season paper also. 

    What a fun layout!  Can you see that wonderful texture on the Vanilla layer?  That's the Tasteful Texture 3D embossing folder.  The circles and greeting are all from the die-cuts from the Tasteful Labels set of dies.  

    Next is a pretty sunflower card made by Jane.  She used the In Color 6 X 6" paper for the solid part of the sunflower.  

    The greeting is from the Celebrate Sunflowers. Order the stamp set with these dies in a bundle at 10% savings.  Love these delicate dies!  

    Tip: Did you know that almost all of our dies are now thinner and cut better?  They reformulated them with the last few catalogs so they cut beautifully.  It's not a struggle to get them out of the dies like it used to be. However I've found that if I do a bunch of the same at a time, I do use a piece of waxed paper every 5 die-cuts and that sure makes a difference!

  • Hippo’s & Dandelions?


    Today I have two more swap cards made by my talented Flowerbug's Team.  I still have more to share yet! 

    The first card is made by a brand new demonstrator; Tracey.  This was her first swap too!  She used the new Hippo Happiness bundle. 

    Her colors are Just Jade, Daffodil Delight and Magenta Madness.  She stamped her own background using some of the images in the set.  That swirly die-cut we all love is from the Painted Labels die-cuts.  Such a sweet card! 

    I LOVE these dies; look at all of the labels. There are 9 of them! 

    Karen made this pretty card below with the new Dandelions 3D embossing folder.  

    She used our Vellum card stock; did you know when you run it through an embossing folder it turns 'white' or opaque?  So cool!  You'll start looking at using vellum and your folders more now, right?  She added adhesive to the back of the flower heads and behind the greeting.  

    Her sentiment if from the Forever Fern stamp set and is punched out with the new Rectangular Postage Punch. 

    More swap cards coming up!
