Two great Fun-fold card swaps today

August 21, 2025

Today I’m sharing two more of my Flowerbug Team swaps and both are fun fold layouts. Our theme was Monochromatic cards and these cards include similar colors.

First is Kim’s card featuring the Peace on Earth bundle that’s coming in the new 2025 Holiday catalog in September; just a few weeks away! The long leaves die-cut is from the Memorable Blooms dies but is now retired.

Her colors include Cloud Cover with Pretty Peacock & White. For the large oval die-cuts she used the Impressions Abloom dies seen here. The Damask Designs embossing folder was used on the Cloud Cover 2-toned card stock panel.

Measurements:

card base 11″ X 4 1/4″ score at 2 3/4″ & 5 1/2″
2-toned CS textured panel 2 1/2″ X 4″
Peacock inside 5 1/4″ X 4″

Here’s how her card opens: These doves in this upcoming bundle are so pretty. Perfect for sympathy, wedding or other events.

Next is a cute card made by Candy featuring the Jar of Joy stamp set seen here. It coordinates with the Sweet Jar punch seen here.

Her colors include Pretty Peacock, Lost Lagoon, Pool Party & White. Embossing folders are So Swirly & Damask Designs. Dies are Nested Essentials and Textured Notes.

It’s a neat fun fold card that opens up from each side:

She’s calling it a ‘Buckle Fold card’. Here are her measurements:

Peacock card base 6 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ score at 2 1/4″, latch strip is 5 1/4″ X 2″ score at 2 3/4″
Pool Party 2″ X 5 1/4″
Lost Lagoon die-cut 2 3/8″ X 3″
White inside 4″ X 5 1/4″, Textured Notes greeting die-cut

Tomorrow I’ll share the last of our Monochromatic swaps!

Hat’s Off; a neat bundle with so many possibilities. Video tutorial too!

June 28, 2021
The Hat's Off bundle was a bit of a sleeper to me when I first saw it. But seeing what other's created with it made me buy it.

Once I played with it, I absolutely loved it! See this bundle here.

I created this card for my June card clubs.

Save

I chose these colors; Gray Granite, Real Red, Crushed Curry and Misty Moonlight. I stamped the background stars with Versamark ink. I love the tone on tone this ink pad provides.

The stars are from the Stitched Stars dies and the texture is from the Checks & Dots embossing folder duo seen here.

Scroll down to watch the video.

Annual HUGE Stamping Sale is Saturday!!

June 25, 2021

Each year my customers and I host a HUGE crafting sale. We sell our excess product to make room for more; or to make money to buy more!

This year we have over 30 people participating and this is what is looks like! Remember most but not all is Stampin' Up! but it is all paper crafting items.

This first picture is just a quarter of our 25 tables. There's lots more inside and out.

It's in Minot, ND this Saturday, June 26th from 9-3 pm at 429 Cedon Drive. People who shop at our sale are so happy with the deals they've gotten. They never want to miss one.

It's absolutely amazing and the selection and prices are crazy! It's actually hard for me to see some of the Stampin' Up! products sell at these ridiculous prices. But then again, what good does it do sitting on a shelf?!

Here are some photos of our set up this year:

If you live near me in Minot, ND I hope you can come. If you don't, well I sincerely apologize for teasing you!

I hope you understand, but I cannot shop for anyone long distance. There just isn't time as we are open for just a few hours & tear down immediately after the sale while everyone is there to help. It takes a lot of people for this sale to run smoothly.

*If you want to come next year we traditionally hold it the last week of June.

I am planning a BOGO the end of July and hope to offer my retired products online to everyone.
