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.

Bamboo Beauty & the Ink Swipe Technique

June 21, 2021
I created this striking card for a swap I participated in with some of my Demonstrator leader friends. I wanted to highlight the beautiful Bamboo Beauty stamp set.

Save

I decided to create a bold background effect by swiping ink pads directly across my Basic White CS. Each one turned out totally different!

Save

I chose to use these colors from top to bottom – Pale Papaya, Mango Melody, Flirty Flamingo & Calypso Coral. Depending on how well inked your pads are you can get a variety of hues. After I swiped the darker colors I used the Pale Papaya over it all to blend and soften the colors together.

Save

My measurements for this card are as follows:
- So Saffron card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4"
- White (before swiping) 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
- Black 3 5/8" X 4 7/8"
I hope you try this technique; it's so fun! I shared this technique using glossy paper in a video a few years ago. Here's a link to it.

Here's a closer view one card. I love how the solid images stamp with multiple hues of color without any effort! It may look like my ink pad wasn't inked enough but this is on purpose. These Distinctive stamps are wonderful and provide a lot of dimension effortlessly!
