See both sides of your designer paper with this cool fun fold card; video tutorial too!

The Last Chance list has been out for almost 2 weeks now; things are going fast!  Do you have everything you want from this sale?  Remember it's while supplies last!

Also note that some prices are going up. The cost of business is increasing world wide; as I'm sure you've noticed when shopping.  Here's a chart showing some of the price changes in the upcoming new Annual Catalog.

Now on to the projects! 

I shared these neat cards on last week's Live video. I love it when you can show off both sides of our pretty designer papers! 

Save

This card uses almost half of a 12 X 12" piece of designer paper; but it truly makes the most of your printed paper. 

I chose the Pretty Prints DSP from the Annual catalog.  It includes 4 colors; Calypso Coral, Bermuda Bay, Evening Evergreen and Blackberry Bliss. It's on the retiring list now and discounted to $8.40 instead of $12.  See it here. 

Save

It's quite an easy fold to make.  You make a few score lines and then trim off the top at an angle; then add that trimmed piece to the bottom edge.  Watch the video to see how it's done.  

Measurements: 

• Card base 4 ¼” X 5 ½”
• DSP 5 ¼” X 12” score at 2”, 4”, 8” & 10”. Mark at 2 3/8” and cut off to 4” mark
• White front square 2 1/4", inside 3 3/4" X 5" 
• Front square layer 2 1/2"

Save

 

I chose the Kind & Sincere stamp set for my greetings.  I think the mixed font and wide range of phrases is fabulous.  Unfortunately it is on the retiring list. It's now $15.60 instead of  $26.

• Neat fun fold card 3 ways! With free tutorial & video

  February 9, 2026

  ---

  We made this special card at my January card clubs. They could choose between 3 colors and themes too!

  Save

  I featured the Addressed to You stamp set for all three cards. See the cute ovals & rectangle with the ‘filled in’ images on the right? Those are all part of this unique stamp set! See it here.

  Save

  I used the retiring Textured Notes dies seen here. They’re the stitched edge rectangle dies used twice on this card. They are on the last chance list right now and reduced in price too!

  Save

  This card opens with a type of flip/flap feel. Here’s how we cut off the tabs on the card base. Once you score your card you’ll make a pencil mark from the top and bottom at 1″. Then trim off the corners.

  Save

  My colors include Pool Party, White and either Pretty in Pink, Fresh Freesia or Peach Pie.

  I created a free project sheet for this card with measurements, supplies and step by step directions. Click here to print or download it.

  Save

  More details:

  • I used the images that finished the lined oval & rectangle to decorate the inside ‘left’ edge on the cards.
  • We used Blends markers to color in the small images.
  • The DSP is the Beach Boardwalk designer paper for the left edge.
  • The greetings are from the stamp set called ‘The Right Words’ seen here. It’s one of my favorite greeting sets.

  Save

  I was in the middle of the video tutorial for this card but the video failed right before I started the project. And I made my last packet. So I do not have a video for it. But hopefully the project sheet above helps you out.

• A new fun fold card with the Nature Walk suite; wow!

  February 6, 2026

  ---

  Karen’s swap card blows me away! I haven’t seen a card fold like this one before and I just love her color choices too.

  Save

  Isn’t it beautiful?! Can you tell that the front, main layers are ‘caught’ on the diagonal textured layer on the lower left? That’s what is keeping the flap tucked in.
  This is how it opens:

  Save

  Her colors include Cloud Cover, Secret Sea, Old Olive & Basic White. I’ll share measurements below.
  Did you catch the pretty textured layer? That’s the new Stone & Vine 3D embossing folder. And did you notice the ‘wood look’ die-cut in Olive near the greeting? That and the greeting are included the Nature’s Symphony bundle seen here.

  She used the Nature Walk suite for her card which includes gorgeous nature focused products. See it all here.

  Save

  Here’s how she finished the inside of her card:

  Save

  Measurements as follows:

  -card base 7″ X 5 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″
  -White 7″ X 5″ scored at 3 3/4″. Make a mark on the shorter end at 1″ from the top and the bottom. Trim off the rectangle to the score line for the front flap
  -Secret Sea front is 3″ square, side is 2 1/2″ X 5 1/4″, the diagonal piece is 2 1/2″ X 2 3/4″ cut in half and inside is 4″ X 5 1/4″
  -DSP front is 2 3/4″ square, side is 2 1/4″ X 5″

  Thank you for creating and sharing this amazing card with us Karen!
