Stunning Garden Poetry Fun-fold card kit with tutorial option

March 12, 2026

The Garden Poetry designer paper was a firm choice for one of my card kits. It’s absolutely breathtaking with the coordinating prints in leafy and watercolor designs.

I wanted to show off both sides of this beautiful paper so I chose to feature fun folds for these cards.

I love the vibrant colors so much. If you enjoy creating with ‘ready to go’ kits I hope you’ll try one or more of my kits to go.

This kit to go includes multiple products to create cards like these click here. The kit includes all 10 pre-cut cards, 1/2 pkg of the designer paper, a share of the Garden Epoxy gems and the Berry Burst ribbon and costs $31. Plus you’ll receive the PDF tutorial AND the link to the exclusive video tutorial.

The PDF tutorial includes photos, measurements, a supplies list and step by step directions. You’ll need a paper trimmer to cut your new designer paper using the measurements in the tutorial. You’ll also need a few ink colors, greeting images and adhesives to finish your cards. I have a limited supply of these kits available; reserve yours soon!

If you’d like the PDF tutorial click here. It’s $16.

The PDF tutorial is sent to you via email immediately after purchase. Check your spam folder.

I used He's the Man DSP; no stamping on the front. I used the die-cuts included in the special He's the Man designer series paper. I love this paper with the two sheets of fun elements we can use for card making or scrapbooking.

It's a fun fold card with the bottom half opening up to reveal the same angled square piece as the front. These are from the Stylish Shapes dies seen here. This set of dies is all stitched in squares, circles and banner shapes!

Glimmer Paper meets the Slim Card dies for a big WOW!

June 10, 2022
I hope you're not tired of the Slim line cards I've been sharing this week. I've been having a lot of fun making them with the Slim Card dies and the Slim Saying stamp set.

I shared these striking cards on FB Live Tuesday:

Save

I wanted to use the new 2022-24 In Color glimmer paper, I knew it would show off it's ombre' effect nicely with the Slim Card dies. I chose to use the 2 in colors of Parakeet Party with Starry Sky.

The Slim Sayings bundle is retiring this month and available while supplies last. BUT the Slim Card dies are on sale now at 50% off! See them here. It's a better deal to get the Slim Card dies separately from the Slim Sayings stamp set even though they are available in a bundle.

Measurements:
- Card base 8 1/2" X 7 1/4" scored at 3 5/8"
- White layer for the die-cut 3 1/2" X 8 1/2"
I had to cut the colored glimmer paper twice since it's in 6 X 6" size and the die is about 8 1/2" long. I also used the Picture This dies for the greeting label and the Starlit punch for the glimmer stars; also punched from the In Color Glimmer paper.

I saved the outside pieces from the chevron glimmer paper and made this card:

I just couldn't throw it away and decided it could be used for a second card. I adhered the two colored pieces to a piece of White card stock and trimmed off the excess before adding it to a card base of Orchid Oasis.
