Unique Charming Day fun fold card with video tutorial

August 25, 2025

I shared this cool fancy fold card on last week’s Live video. It looks like an ordinary card at first glance…

I colored the main floral image with a Wink of Stella and ink from my ink pads. Watch the video to see how it’s done.

I featured the Floral Charm DSP that’s discounted right now during the In Color promotion. See it here. It’s almost $2 off. My favorite thing about it is the color coordination. Each pattern has a soft, matching back side.

I also used the Charming Day bundle that coordinates with the DSP. See that here.

Here’s how the card opens. I’m calling it a double diagonal center fold card. The center stays in place but the outer triangles lift up and to the outside as shown below.

I have a complete project sheet for you with measurements, directions, supplies and photos. The video tutorial will help you understand how to assemble this card; see it below. Click on the following link to print or download this project sheet: Download Double Diagonal Center fold cards

Below is the video tutorial for this card and another super neat fun fold card; both featuring this beautiful paper and Charming Day bundle.

Fun & Simple card layout for designer paper with video tutorial

February 19, 2025

Here's one more card shared on last week's Live video. It is a very simple layout with a bit of fun to it.

Save

It's simply two layers of designer series paper with a slanted greeting across it. The slant adds a bit of playfulness to the vertical layers.

I used the Mixed Media Florals suite seen here. It's in our Online Exclusives line which is available to everyone. The Online title confuses some people but all it really means is that it's not in any published catalog and can be found in our online store.

I tried another version above; one with flowers and the other with a patterned design. Which do you prefer?

The center panel is 2" X 5 1/2" and the outer is 2 1/2" X 5 1/2". The Black strip across is 1" wide.

The main panel is actually black & white without color. I used our Blends markers to add color to it. I love the ability to add whatever color I want to feature. In this case Petal Pink with pops of Lemon Lolly, Black and Old Olive.

Below is the video tutorial for this card and two other layouts using this pretty designer paper.

Neat Z-fold card with free project sheet & video tutorial

February 17, 2025

Today I'm sharing a neat Z-fold card that's a little different than usual. I chose to feature the new Mixed Media Floral designer paper from our Online Exclusives line. You can see it here.

Save

My colors include Mossy Meadow, White & Calypso Coral. The left card above has a 4" square of DSP as the main panel. On the right card I fussy cut the flowers from the DSP and added them over a printed blue panel that resembles sky.

The greeting is from the SAB Heart Shaped bundle; the die-cut is from the Mixed Label dies and the Coral piece is punched using the Labeled with Love punch.

You can see how it opens in the photo below: The card base is 5 1/2" X 4 1/4" and there's a full 11" X 4 1/4" scored layer above it.
