Pretty Perennials ‘Happy’ card with video

I wanted to use the Pretty Perennials bundle for my April clubs and I found a card like this on Pinterest.  I love the fresh color combination of Daffodil Delight, Smoky Slate and Calypso Coral!

Save

The Perennial dies were used here along with a few others; the recently retired Stitched Shapes and the Stitched So Sweetly dies.  The pretty embossing folder is the Dainty Diamonds and I'm sad to say it did retire last month. 

Here's the Pretty Perennials bundle.  This did not make it in the new Annual catalog and is retiring next month and it will be while supplies last.

I love this set for the flowers but the greetings are the star in my opinion.  There are so many ways to use the 'happy' with the rest of the words.  My favorite is 'Happy Mail'.  Who wouldn't love getting a card with that saying?  It could also be stamped on the outside of your envelope as well.  

Save

For the inside I used an oval die-cut and added a fun greeting from the Happiest of Birthday's set.

I made a quick video on putting this card together.  You can see it below.

  Here's another pretty card I made on last week's Live video:

  Most of this card is made with the Florals in Bloom designer paper.  Both large pieces of DSP and the small flowers & leaves are fussy cut from it.  The large flower is die-cut from this DSP using the Pretty Florals dies. See the bundle here.

  My colors include Petunia Pop with Secret Sea and White.

• Pretty Florals fun fold card with video tutorial & free project sheet!

  May 5, 2025

  ---

  Here's one of the cards I shared on last week's video.  It' features lots of new products from the 2025-26 Annual Catalog. Yay! This catalog & lost of new product goes live tomorrow! 

  Save

  My colors include Misty Moonlight with Timid Tiger and White.  The floral stamp set is called Pretty Florals and will be available on May 6th. The greeting is from the Blooming Phrases set.  

  I believe this fun fold is called a diamond fold.  It starts out with a 11" X 4 1/4" card base with two score lines.  Where the diamond layers are added is the second score line.  Simply trim off the excess on the left side of the diamond layers.  *watch the video here to understand

  Save

  This is one of those cards where the video helps you more than a tutorial does.  Please watch the video below to understand how this fold works. 

  But if you like having the instructions with measurements here's the free project tutorial for you.  Click on the following link to print or download it.  Download Pretty Florals diamond fold

  Save

  Below is the video tutorial for this card and one more too. Both are made with this upcoming bundle from the new 2025-26 Annual Catalog. It goes live on May 6th.
