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!

TWO Cactus Cutes fun fold cards with video & measurements!

May 1, 2022

Here are two more Cactus Cuties cards from last Tuesday's FB Live. Follow me here on Facebook to see each video and more!

This first card features three of the new In Colors from the brand new Annual Catalog. They're Sweet Sorbet (red), Parakeet Party (green) and Tahitian Tide (turquoise). Aren't they vibrant and eye catching!

Check out my In Color bundle here; it's available just through May 7th. Get free product when you opt in for it like the In Color matte dots seen here. The Tahitian Tide DSP on this card is part of my In Color bundle too!

I call this card a Dutch Door card fold. It's pretty easy to do and makes great use of your card stock too. Watch how with my quick tip in the video here.

Save

This next card is one we made at my April card clubs here in Minot. It's called a Split Panel card. The designer paper is from the recently retired Pattern Party host DSP. We have a new host DSP called Design a Daydream that is just as great in the annual catalog. I love these free paper options for hosts!!

Save

My colors include Granny Apply Green, Bermuda Bay and Mango Melody. A little bit of Coastal Cabana too. We used the Cactus Builder punch for the pot, cactus and flowers. You can see the measurements below.

This style of fun fold card is super easy; I hope you'll try one!

New In Colors paired with the Kite Delight stamp set

April 29, 2022

I shared this colorful kite card on a recent FB live video here. I wanted to use the Kite Delight stamp set and the newest In Colors coming out on May 3rd.

The kite and sun are fussy cut and the kite is colored in with new In Color Blends markers.

Save

I've been sharing the new In Colors with my Club gals this month and everyone LOVES them! They are so bright, happy & will be perfect additions to our color line.

If you're interested in getting these new In Colors you can opt in for my In Color bundle now through May 7th. See the options here. There's also an add on option for our In Color Blends markers – buy 4 get 1 free and a Designer paper share too!

I heat embossed the clouds with White embossing powder. But the image is an outline image and I wanted my clouds to be 'white'. So I used the Chalk Marker to color it in. Unfortunately it was on the retired list and is unavailable now. But two other ideas are to use a White watercolor pencil or a blender pen and White craft ink.

The Kite Delight stamp set is retiring at the end of May. I also created two other cards with it during the video. See all three cards below:

Change is Beautiful Paper Pumpkin alternatives; plus discounted past kits while supplies last!

April 28, 2022
April's Paper Pumpkin kit is filled with butterflies, scenes & fun fold cards. Each month I enjoy creating alternative designs with the contents in the kits to share with my subscribers each month.

I couldn't wait to play with this kit! Here's a pretty card I made just an hour after receiving my box:

Save

I cut the front of a card base to fit on the front of a Crushed Curry card base and used other elements in the kit (butterfly, flower, banner & gems) to create this scene. I love changing up the cards; the kits are great as is but the challenge of creating something new is fun!

This next card uses the other half of the original card base. The flower layer and the polka dot layer behind it are from the original card. I did trim them just a bit to fit on a White layer.

Save

Other Details:
- I stamped the butterfly in the kit onto the Granny Apple Green layer with Versamark ink for a soft background.
- The caterpillar is from the kit.
- The butterflies are stamped on White card stock using Black Memento ink and colored in with Blends markers.
- The greeting is stamped on an Oval die-cut.
