Simply Zinnias dies are the focus of this easy fun fold

I shared this striking card on last week's Live video. I focused on the Flowering Zinnias suite.

My colors include Granny Apple Green, Melon Mambo, Black, Flirty Flamingo & White.  

I textured the Melon Mambo layer with the new Zinnia 3D embossing folder and created the two flowers & leaves from the Simply Zinnias dies.  See all of the Zinnia products here. 

The greeting is from the new Comforting Thoughts stamp set seen here.  I LOVE this set!  It includes so many greetings I'd actually use!

• Pretty Center pop-out fun fold card with free project sheet & video tutorial

  March 17, 2025

  I'm so excited to share this super neat fun fold card with you today!  It's called a Center Pop-out fun fold.  I found this neat fold from my friend Terri Gaines.

  I chose to feature the Thankful Garden bundle seen here and the Lovely Garden Designer paper seen here.

  I love these stencils!  They are so easy to work with. Watch the video below for a special tip on lining them up.

  This card looks like it might be hard to assemble but with the center 'brace' that helps the center panel pop out it's quite simple.  It will really help you understand how to make it if you watch the video tutorial below.

  My colors include Melon Mambo with Blueberry Bushel. Here's how the card looks with the inside brace added before I adhered the center panel:

  I made the yellow/green version on the video to show a different color combo.

  I colored the flowers by using the stencils included in the bundle. So easy and makes you look like a true artist with the high and low lights added with blending brushes.
