• Beautiful Floral card kit to go; or choose the tutorial option. While supplies last

  July 22, 2026

  ---

  The Violet Dreams designer paper is the star of these pretty cards for my August card kit to go. If you love purple this kit is for you!

  Save

  All but one card of the 5 designs are fun fold layouts. This floral themed designer paper includes a sheet of pre-cut ephemera which makes creating a breeze. I added the Fresh Freesia ribbon and rhinestone gems and include them in the kit to go.

  I design my card kits specifically to make them easy to finish; you need a few inks and stamped greetings. You will need to cut your new designer paper using my tutorial as a guide. Everything else is pre-cut for you; perfect for easy crafting!

  Choose from the pre-cut kit to go which includes approximately $20 in product plus the 10 pre-cut cards and PDF tutorial for $33. Click here.

  Or choose the PDF tutorial for $17. Click here for that option.

  The tutorial is emailed to you immediately after purchase. The kit to go is mailed out mid August.

  I have many kits available and some are discounted; check them all out here.

• Check out this neat Botanical Expressions fun fold card

  July 20, 2026

  ---

  I shared this pretty card on last week’s Live video. It features a new die from the Online store called Botanical Expressions:

  Save

  You can see a glimpse of the die in the photo above. It cuts the leaves out but not the edge, so you can make the leaf element as wide as you’d like. See this die here.

  My colors include White with Peaceful Pine. The designer paper is the Moonlit Flora DSP seen here. The greeting tag is from the Scalloped Blooms dies. I’ve been using the greeting tags in this set of dies a lot.

  Save

  This card fold is what I’m calling a Vertical Book-binding Z-fold.

  Save

  The greeting and butterflies are from the Fern & Flora bundle seen here

  Save

  Here’s the free project sheet for this card with measurements & directions. Click here.

  And below is the video showing you how to assemble this card plus my newest tutorials & card kits to go.

• Another sample using DSP strips; the pretty Velvet Meadow DSP

  July 16, 2026

  ---

  I shared a card using a strips technique a few days ago and wanted to share the card that inspired it today.

  Save

  Here are the products I used: Velvet Meadow DSP, Bubble Bath, Berry Burst & Peaceful Pine CS. The greeting is from the Flowering Meadow stamp set and the scalloped tags are from the Scalloped Blooms dies seen here.

  When using up your strips you can adhere them diagonally across your card stock, leaving a small space between each. Once this CS is filled in, trim off the excess on the edges.

  Save

  The Velvet Meadow specialty paper has a fuzzy, flocked feel to the flowers and some leaves. It’s luxurious! Check it out here.
  I fussy cut the flower and leaves to add to the greeting.
