Velvet Meadow gatefold card with video & free project sheet

August 3, 2026

This is another card we made at my July card clubs. It features the Velvet Meadow specialty DSP seen here.

It’s a simple gatefold card. I matched most of the DSP so it created a full panel on the front. This DSP has fussy or flocked areas on it. It does feel velvety!

I also used the new Exciting Times punch bundle for the center. You can see it here.

Here’s what the inside looks like. I added a strip of the DSP along with the white for stamping and signing. Then added a skinny divider of Bubble Bath for a little accent color.

My colors include Berry Burst, Bubble Bath and Peaceful Pine.

I created a free project sheet for this card; click here to download or print it. Remember it’s a great idea to save these on your computer for easy access.

The video tutorial for this card and one more neat fun fold is below. Thanks for popping in today!

Another Nature’s Harvest sample – Sneak Peak!

July 23, 2021

I created this card for an online swap I participated in. I love to join card swaps! I can create one card and make multiples of it. Then I get a nice variety back that I didn't have to think of! Plus I receive cards that may not be my style but are my customers style. Isn't it wonderful that we are all different?!

I decided to focus on the 'blues' in the Harvest Meadow designer series paper. I am usually very happy with a monochromatic card. They can be very easy on the eye.

Save

I cut out two of the 'tall flower/botanical' die-cut in White CS and adhered it to the largest tags in the Tailor Made Tags dies seen here. I added a bow in White Baker's Twine. The greeting is one of the dies in the Nature's dies along with the tall flowers.

The Nature's Harvest bundle can be found in the upcoming 2021 Holiday July/December Mini Catalog. If you're on my customer list you should be receiving this catalog AND your Sale-a-Bration catalog any day now. This catalog goes live on August 3rd along with Sale-a-Bration too!

In this photo you may be able to spy the texture on the tag. It's called Timeworn Type 3D embossing folder. It's subtle design will be a favorite of many!
