See them all! Two different versions of this fun fold card with gift card option


Monday night we made these neat fun fold cards on FB Live. If you're not following me on Facebook you can do so here.  I do 6 Facebook lives a month!  

The top two cards feature the Tidings & Trimmings bundle & the Tidings of Christmas 6 X 6" DSP. Both are in a suite seen in the annual catalog on pages 88-89 or here. 

The bottom two cards feature the new Eden's Garden stamp set & the Ever Eden specialty designer paper.  See them both here. 

Measurements:

  • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4" plus 1" X 4" strip for embossed layer. *To cut the front flap, cut at the 4 1/4" point to the score line. 
  • Cherry Cobbler card stock 4" square, plus 3/4" X 5" strip
  • DSP 1 7/8" squares X 4 (can be 1 3/4" to leave a space between like the card on the lower left)
  • White inside layer 3 1/2" square

Do you see the difference in the two cards below?  Note the space between the designer paper squares on the left card. The DSP squares on the left are 1 3/4" in size.  The DSP on the right card are 1 7/8" in size so they have no space in between. 

*If you love this stamp set & Designer Paper you should get it this month.  I'm giving away a free cards kit with online orders this month plus a PDF tutorial with 22 projects! See details below. 

 

Share your version of this card in my FB group here by November 21st to get in the drawing for a door prize! 

See how the card is cut partway?  The flap on the right is adhered down. But, you can leave it partially open enough to add a gift card in the pocket!

  • More WOW swaps by my Flowerbug’s Team with measurements


    Okay; are you as amazed by this card as I am?!  Candace made this with the Submarine Life bundle.

    The bubble paper looks like it's printed but she made it! She stamped on her Pool Party card stock with Pool Party & White craft ink with the bubble image.  Incredible!

    I'm not positive of the many colors she used here but I know a few include Sweet Sorbet, Blueberry Bushel, Daffodil Delight & Old Olive.  She's a huge fan of the Beatles 'Yellow Submarine' so she had to get this bundle! 

    Measurements: 

    • Blueberry Bushel 8 1/8" X 5 1/4". Across the top, score at the 1 5/8" mark down to 1 5/8". Score at 3 3/8" down to 3 5/8". Score at 5" down to the bottom of the card. From the bottom side, score at the 6 1/2" up to 1 5/8". Now you'll make two cuts across the center two areas from the score lines.  
    • Pool Party large squares 3 1/4", small squares 1 1/2" X 2 for the bottom.  Top pieces are 1 1/2" X 1 3/4"
    • Back white is 3" X 3 3/8" 

    Here's a view of the back side.  

    This is a total 'WOW' card; don't you agree? Candace is an incredible designer and LOVES swapping!

    Mary made this sweet card with the Sunny Days designer paper seen here.  It's free during Sale-a-Bration through February or while supplies last.  

    I've always loved Red with Pool Party; one of my favorite color combos. 

    Measurements:

    • Pool Party 6 1/2" X 5 1/2" score at 4 1/4", second flap is 6" X 4 1/4" score at 3 1/8"
    • DSP 2" X 5 1/4"
    • White inside 3 1/2" X 4" 
    • Poppy Parade circle is 2 1/4"

    I have MANY more to share with you too!  Stay tuned!

  • AMAZING Fun Fold card swaps by my Flowerbug’s Team!!


    We held our monthly Team swap last weekend and the them was fun fold cards.  Wow; did they ever deliver fabulous cards!!!  

    First is a sweet card made by Ginny who chose the cute Bee Mine Suite. 

    Her colors include Daffodil Delight, Lemon Lime Twist, Sweet Sorbet, & Black.  She cased the card from quite a few people seen online including Karen Titus & Robyn's Roost. 

     I absolutely love the tag with the added pocket; it's made with the Tailored Tags dies!  

    Measurements: 

    • Daffodil Delight card base is 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" card but scored at 2", 3 1/8", 5 3/8" & 6 1/2".  
    • Designer paper on the front are 1 3/4" X 5 1/4" for outer areas. middle is 2" X 5 1/4" & the last two beside the middle layer is 7/8" X 5 1/4" 

    Here's a view of the back:

    Next is an 'over the top' card made by Sharon who chose the Hooray for Surprises bundle.  

    She used the Most Adored designer paper from Sale-a-Bration (seen here) and Real Red & White. This specialty designer paper is still available and free with any $50 purchase through February – while supplies last. 

    Other products used are the Country Bouquet stamp set in the Annual catalog and Classic Matte dots

    Measurements:

    • Card base 11" X 5 1/2", 1 3/4", 3 1/2", 5 1/4" & 7".  
    • 2nd layer under heart & curved rectangle die-cuts is 4 1/2" X 1 1/2" scored at 2 1/4". 
    • She adhered two curvy rectangle die-cuts (from the Nested Essential dies) over this. 
    • DSP – 2 pieces at 1 1/2" X 5 1/4"
    • White 3 3/4" X 5 1/4"

    The Hooray for Surprises bundle has multiple dies that allow for  peek-a-boo surprises. You can see in the photo below that the heart die-cut can be 'pulled' away to reveal a hidden message. There are multiple dies in this set that provide a tear-away element. It's so cool!  

    Here's a photo of the Hooray for Surprises bundle; even with out the peek-a-boo elements I love the stamped images and dies! *see the perforations on the large dies? That provides the tear away aspect.

    Next is a sweet card made by Joan; it was her first card swap with us as she joined my Flowerbug's Team in January!  She did an incredible job too!

    She chose to feature the Sweet Songbirds stamp set & coordinating Songbird Builder punch. See the stamp set here and the punch here; they used to be a bundle but are now sold separately. 

    She designed a fun fold I haven't seen before!  It's a Dutch door fold with an added top flap. So amazing for her first swap!  

    Measurements:

    • Pretty Peacock – 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" for back, front layer 3 1/4" X 4", greeting layer 3 1/2" X 1 1/4"
    • Pool Party – lower fold is 8" X 1 3/4" scored at 4", upper fold is 4" X 7" scored at 3 1/2"
    • White front 3 X 3 3/4", front of inside flap is 3" X 2", inside 3 3/4" X 3 1/4", greeting 3 1/4" X 1"
    • scraps of White, Lemon Lime Twist & Pecan Pie for leaves, nest & bird

    Here's the card fully opened: 

    Aren't they all amazing?!!  And I have LOTS more to share with you too!  Stay tuned!

  • Trusty Tools single gatefold card with the Sale-a-Bration Trusty Toolbox designer paper


    Last week I shared the projects featuring the Trusty Tools bundle and the Trusty Toolbox designer paper in my weekly video. I've shared the free project sheets for two of those in the last two blog posts. 

     

    Today I'll focus on the third project on the right – a single gate-fold card with a 'faux' toolbox on the front.  

    I love this greeting!  It's from the Trusty Tools bundle seen here.  The tools in front are all fussy cut from the Trusty Toolbox designer paper (and Holographic specialty paper in the Annual Catalog) although a few of the dies in the bundle coordinate with the paper. 

    I did not create a project sheet for this project but I will provide the measurements:

    Measurements:

    • Gray Granite card base 6 1/2" X 5 1/2" score at 4 1/4" plus die-cut tool box pieces 
    • DSP – front is 2" X 5 1/4", inside is 4" X 5 1/4" plus fussy cut tools
    • Black 3 1/2" square
    • White greeting layer 2 3/4" X 1"; inside is 3 1/4" square

    Here's the inside view: 

    I also shared this adorable treat box on the video as well as another cool fun-fold card; I hope you watch it! 

    Below is the video where I demo how to make it.  Click here or on the photo below to watch this and two more projects featuring this bundle and designer paper.
