Textured Notes & Botanical Textures fun fold card with video tutorial

I shared this fun fold card on last week's video. We also made it at my Team meeting in March. 

Save

The back of the card is 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" but the center is an accordion style fold that shows off your designer paper. 

I used the Dashing Designs embossing folder on the Azure Afternoon layer – it's on the Last Chance list here. 

The stamp set is the Textured Notes and the DSP is the Botanical Textures.  If you follow me you'll realize I cannot get enough of both of these products!  

Here's the view with the card opened:

• Great way to use the Extraordinary Washi Tape with video

  February 23, 2026

  ---

  We made this beautiful card at my February card clubs. It features the Extraordinary Washi Tape from the Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog.

  Save

  Aren’t they pretty? And because the washi tape includes two color combinations (all in one roll) I was able to offer two choices of colors. You can see this pretty Washi tape here.

  Save

  It also has a stamp & die bundle that matches it perfectly. I used only the single die seen here. What I love about this die is it cuts out all of one huge panel of flowers/leaves all at once! It’s a most amazing product, (well named) and incredible that you get 16 gorgeous flowers cut all at once!

  Save

  That neat embossing folder on the large Vanilla is called Beautiful Pattern and can be seen here.

  Save

  My colors include Old Olive and Very Vanilla, plus Calypso Coral with Petal Pink and Berry Burst with Fresh Freesia. We wrapped Old Olive twine around the Vanilla layer twice and tied it into a bow to anchor the flowers & greeting.

  The other bundle I used is the Words of Beauty seen here. So many possibilities for greetings in this one.

  Save

  A few other dies used here are theTextured Notes dies seen here (which are retiring but unavailable right now) and the Label Me Grateful dies which just retired.

  I also used the ‘With You in Mind’ stamp set for the inside: A thin 1/4″ strip of matching CS finished it off nicely.

  Save

  Here’s the free project sheet for this card. Click here to download or print it.

  I hope you watch the video below to get the tips on using these products and finishing the card. Be sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel while you’re there!
