  • Snowflake Wishes Fun Fold card; WOW!


    Look at this amazing fun fold card Tracey made for our Flowerbug's Team swap last month.  Incredibly beautiful! 

    This card is over the top gorgeous!  The Navy snowflakes are die-cut with the Snowflake Wishes bundle here and she also used the Snowflake Splendor designer paper here; it's on sale this month!!

    This fancy fold card is for those crafters who don't mind scoring and cutting with multiple measurements!  You can see her template below and one I found online to show scoring areas.  

    Here's the inside view: 

    • The Navy greeting piece is 3/4" X 4 1/8".
    • The center DSP is 4 1/4" X 2", the center Navy is 2 1/8" X 4 3/8"
    • The DSP side pieces are 3/4" X 4 1/4", the Navy side pieces are 7/8" X 4 3/8" 

    Here is her template.  It's called a Center Step card and measures 4 1/4" X 11". 

    Outside score lines are at 1", 2" and 6 1/2". The center score line is at 5 1/2" .

  • Gather Together Tag Punch Fun Fold


    Check out this fun fold card Deloris made for a recent Team swap.  Our theme was fun folds from the 2020 Holiday catalog. 

    She used the Gather Together bundle seen here and the Scalloped Tag Topper punch seen here.  


    Her colors are Cajun Craze, Pretty Peacock, Early Espresso & Sahara Sand.  The tag punch is pushed in to create the design on both edges and then the sides are trimmed with a paper trimmer.  A really lovely design!  

    I'll be sharing more of my Team Fun-fold card swaps next week!
