Witty-Cisms Fun-Fold card


The Witty-Cisms stamp set is a great all occasions set with fun images and cute greetings to match.  See it here. I created this cute card for a recent online card swap.

It's a fun fold card with a double opening.  The Real Red flap is scored and the scored edge is adhered under the inside White layer.  The Granny Apple Green main card is standard size but 1" is cut off the right edge to reveal the White inside.  The new Coastal Weave embossing folder was used on the front.  This embossing folder is the one I'm giving to all online orders over $65 in January.  

Sometimes with this type of fold I add the designer paper to the inside right edge so it shows from the front. This time I added it to the very front along with a stitched scalloped edge piece die-cut with the Stitched Be Mine dies seen here.  

Here are the measurements:

  • Granny Apple Green main card 7 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4".  
  • White inside 4" X 5 1/4"
  • Real Red 4" X 2 1/2"
  • Black 2 1/4" X 3 1/4"
  • 1" X 5 1/2" Granny Apple Green gingham DSP; *from the Brights 6 X 6" DSP pack seen here. 

And more details: 

  • I added a butterfly die-cut from the upcoming Nature's Thoughts dies.  They'll be available in February in the Coordination Product Release.
  • I stamped the main image three times; once on the White punch and again on Real Red for the strawberry and again on scraps of Green. These are cut out and popped up on the main image.
  • White label is the new Label Me Lovely punch seen here.  I love this new punch!  A 1 3/4" circle punch fits inside it for layering. And oval shapes do as well! 

You can find these items in my online store here.

  • Yay!! Spotlight on Nature is now available and it’s discounted through June 30th!


    I was worried this popular bundle wouldn't be back in time for you to grab it while it's on sale in June.  But it's now available!  

    This bundle was out of stock for weeks and so many people wanted it while it's discounted in June.  It is regularly $52 and it's now $46.25. See it here.  

    The dies are amazing and so versatile. I love that they're graduated in size and have three different edge designs!

  • Paper Pumpkin update & bonus project for The Best There Is kit


    Even though I am a seasoned stamper I still enjoy receiving and playing with my Paper Pumpkin kits each month. Sometimes I make the projects as directed and other times I like to change them up. 

    Here's one of my 'change it up' projects from May's The Best There Is' kit. 

    I used the add on dies for the 'thanks' – heat embossing it in White on Early Espresso card stock. I added on a few pieces of the Country Woods designer paper to this fun fold card.  This card was one of the Bonus Projects included in my free tutorial my subscribers received in early June.  

    Below is a peak at the bonus projects I send them each month. They receive at least 9 extra project ideas for the kits they received. 

    Click here to subscribe to receive a kit each month; read below for more details. 

    July's kit should be a pretty one; here's a sneak peak.

    We always get a peak at what's in the next month's kit.  This helps subscribers decide if they want it or if they want to skip that kit.  You always have a choice!  

    They've released a special add on for the next 3 kits as well! These add-ons are available to current PP subscribers. They also get to choose from any other refill kits or available add on items!  

    Here are the benefits & tips for subscribing to Paper Pumpkin kits: 

    A MONTHLY CRAFTING SUBSCRIPTION

    If you’re looking for a fun and simple creative outlet paper crafting might be your best option! It’s fun, creative, and handmade projects bring joy to you and to others. And nothing makes paper crafting as fun, easy, and creative as Paper Pumpkin!

    EVERYTHING YOU NEED IN A CRAFT BOX

    One issue crafters often run into is feeling overwhelmed by their project. Lack of inspiration, proper supplies and crafty know-how might discourage you from even starting a project and unlocking your creative potential!

    This never happens with a craft subscription box from Paper Pumpkin. That’s because everything you need for your project is included in your monthly art box. All you have to do is open it up and get started. You’ll be able to make cards, treat bags, gift boxes and so much more with your monthly art box subscription.

    BUILD YOUR STAMP COLLECTION

    Among the items in each Paper Pumpkin monthly craft kit is a reusable rubber stamp set. So after you’re done creating your monthly craft, you’ll have a valuable stamp to add to your collection. You even get a free clear stamping block with your first craft box. Plus, you get a different color ink pad every month as well.

    PRINT & VIDEO INSTRUCTION MAKE CRAFTING EASY

    Even the craftiest among us worry that we’ll have trouble understanding how to do a project, or that we’ll make a mistake. You never have to worry about that with Paper Pumpkin! That’s because not only does each monthly arts and crafts box come with clear, easy-to-understand printed instructions, but we also upload a video to YouTube so you can watch a professional guide you through the craft.

    KIDS CAN HELP WITH MONTHLY CRAFT KITS

    Although Paper Pumpkin makes craft boxes for adults, they can be fun for the whole family! Use your monthly craft box subscription to introduce your kids to a fun and creative outlet. It’s truly a gift to instill a love of crafting and creativity in kids. You’ll be thrilled to see how their skills grow over time. One day your kids might have their own monthly craft subscription box!
