The left card is a shaker card; they're very special and interactive. And not hard at all! Using Window sheets and our Foam Adhesive strips sure make it easy! I used the following products: (click on each one)

The card on the right is stitched with our metallic thread; basically like string art. If you like to cross stitch you will like this fun technique. I timed it and it took me about 8 minutes to finish one heart.

The Heart Doilies make it super simple. I used these products on this card:

The greeting on the Valentine's card is from the Heart to Heart stamp set. I chose to order this one because it's not just for Valentine's Day but it does includes the greeting. That makes it very versatile to me.

Here's another pretty card I made on last week's Live video:

Most of this card is made with the Florals in Bloom designer paper. Both large pieces of DSP and the small flowers & leaves are fussy cut from it. The large flower is die-cut from this DSP using the Pretty Florals dies. See the bundle here.

My colors include Petunia Pop with Secret Sea and White.

Pretty Florals fun fold card with video tutorial & free project sheet!

May 5, 2025

Here's one of the cards I shared on last week's video. It' features lots of new products from the 2025-26 Annual Catalog. Yay! This catalog & lost of new product goes live tomorrow!

Save

My colors include Misty Moonlight with Timid Tiger and White. The floral stamp set is called Pretty Florals and will be available on May 6th. The greeting is from the Blooming Phrases set.

I believe this fun fold is called a diamond fold. It starts out with a 11" X 4 1/4" card base with two score lines. Where the diamond layers are added is the second score line. Simply trim off the excess on the left side of the diamond layers. *watch the video here to understand

Save

This is one of those cards where the video helps you more than a tutorial does. Please watch the video below to understand how this fold works.

But if you like having the instructions with measurements here's the free project tutorial for you. Click on the following link to print or download it. Download Pretty Florals diamond fold

Below is the video tutorial for this card and one more too. Both are made with this upcoming bundle from the new 2025-26 Annual Catalog. It goes live on May 6th.
