Trusty Tools single gatefold card with the Sale-a-Bration Trusty Toolbox designer paper

February 15, 2024

Last week I shared the projects featuring the Trusty Tools bundle and the Trusty Toolbox designer paper in my weekly video. I've shared the free project sheets for two of those in the last two blog posts.

Today I'll focus on the third project on the right – a single gate-fold card with a 'faux' toolbox on the front.

I love this greeting! It's from the Trusty Tools bundle seen here. The tools in front are all fussy cut from the Trusty Toolbox designer paper (and Holographic specialty paper in the Annual Catalog) although a few of the dies in the bundle coordinate with the paper.

Beautiful Lovely Garden fun fold card kit or choose the tutorial option

April 3, 2025
Look at this gorgeous set of cards! I featured the Lovely Garden designer paper from our Online Exclusives. You can see it here.

Save

All of these cards are unique fun fold layouts. You can use the ideas for any designer papers you own.

I have both a pre-cut card kit with SU products or a PDF tutorial option available.

This card kit includes the following items:
- the pre-cut card kit including punched and die-cut elements
- 1/2 pkg Lovely Garden Designer Series Paper (6" X 12")
- a share of the Regal Foiled dots
- a share of Paper Butterflies
- the PDF tutorial with photos, measurements, a supply list and step by step directions.
The kit to go can be seen here and is $31. The PDF tutorial can be seen here and is $16.

Save money on shipping by choosing more than one kit! I have lots of kits and tutorials available. See them all here.

Reserve your kit soon! The PDF tutorial is emailed to you immediately after purchase. The kit is sent out at the end of April barring inventory/supply issues.

You'll need greeting images (I used Layering Leaves but any stamps will work), adhesives, inks and a paper trimmer to cut your new designer paper.

Great sketch to create fast cards with Woven Textures

April 2, 2025

On last week's video I shared two more projects made with the Textured Notes bundle which is included in the entire Botanical Textures suite seen here.

Save

This lovely card features Pecan Pie with Early Espresso. I stamped directly onto the designer paper – a soft linen sheet included in the Woven Textures DSP seen here.

Save

I die-cut the three rectangles with the new Textured Notes dies which is included in the Textured Notes bundle seen here. I cannot stop using this bundle!!

This layout was inspired by this sketch.

Save

I love using sketches for my inspiration! Think of them as a starting point. Noticed I added a greeting layer & linen thread.

Save

Did you catch the texture on the diagonal Early Espresso strip? That's the new Mini Corrugated 3D embossing folder seen here. I tell you this suite is incredible! I love every single thing in it!

Below is the inside view. Like I said yesterday these leaf stamps are wonderful to play with. Easy, beautiful cards.

Here is the free project sheet for you. Click on the following link to print or download the directions: Download Woven Textures suite card

And here is the video below; it also includes how to make the Bendy card that I shared yesterday.
