A special Trusty Tools Double-box fun fold card – free project sheet & video tutorial

February 12, 2024

We made this fabulous men's fun-fold card at my January Card Clubs; I also shared it on last week's Live video too.

It features Gray Granite, Crushed Curry, Poppy Parade & White plus a bit of our Holographic specialty paper for the wrench die-cut.

This double box fun fold card can be positioned two ways – horizontal like this or vertical where the left box is the bottom.

A few details:

All 3 die-cuts on the front are from the Trusty Tools bundle & die set.
The neat textured Gray Granite layer is Metal Place 3D embossing folder.
The tool designer paper is the Trusty Toolbox 12" DSP – seen here. It's free during Sale-a-Bration with any $50 purchase. I'm actually surprised they haven't run out of it yet!!

If you order the Trusty Tools bundle you can earn the coordinating Trusty Toolbox designer paper FREE! It's $54.75 for the bundle.

For greetings I also used the Throughout the Year stamp set for additional options. See it here.

I've used this stamp set so often! It seems to have just what I need and I LOVE the fonts!

June 8, 2026

Because we’re moving to Bismarck in July I will have just one card kit to go in June. I will be busy packing and moving so I’m cutting back on blog posts, videos and creating for a few weeks.

This kit to go features the Inked Occasions Paper Pumpkin kit. Look how colorful and beautiful they are?! Of course I changed up the original kit to create these:

I have a small, limited supply of these kits!

You can reserve your kit here; they’re $31 for all 12 cards with envelopes. It includes all die-cuts and layers plus a share of pretty sequins. You’ll receive the PDF tutorial immediately after purchase; check your junk folder.

Last of the Team card swaps featuring new products

June 4, 2026

Today I’m sharing the last two swaps from May; our theme was to use new Summer catalog products.

This first card was made by Ginny. She cased a card made by Chelle Scott.

Save

She used the Fern & Flora bundle seen here. Who doesn’t love ferns!? Stampin’ Up! did an awesome job on these dies.
The colors here are Mossy Meadow, Old Olive and Peaceful Pine.

Save

And look at that gorgeous embossing folder – called Fern & Flora 3D folder is stunning! See it here.

Save

Next is a pretty card made by Paula who featured the Valley in Bloom Designer Paper.

Save

It’s a book binding card fold. Start with a 11″ X 4 1/4″ card base; score at 4 1/4″ & 5 1/2″. Adhere the ‘binding’ area down.
Her colors include Blackberry Bliss with Granny Apple Green. She added some of the new 2026-28 In Color butterflies too.

This designer paper is simply stunning; it’s so soft and yet detailed at the same time. See it here.

Save

Here’s what she did on the inside. The dies are so pretty!

Here’s the Lily of the Valley bundle that includes these beautiful dies.
