WOW fun fold swap cards with the Beary Cute bundle!

Look at these three fabulous swaps that all feature the Beary Cute bundle.  All so different which shows how versatile this bundle can be.  

First is an amazing fun fold card made by Candace.

She stamped her neat background using stamps from Artistically Inked. I know it doesn't look like a fun fold; but look what you see once you open it up!

She chose to feature the Merry, Bold & Bright designer paper here, focusing on the blues and green patterns.  She broke up the busy tree paper with a striped piece under the greeting and bow. Neat!

    Okay; are you as amazed by this card as I am?!  Candace made this with the Submarine Life bundle.

    Feb Candace Sublime Save

    The bubble paper looks like it's printed but she made it! She stamped on her Pool Party card stock with Pool Party & White craft ink with the bubble image.  Incredible!

    I'm not positive of the many colors she used here but I know a few include Sweet Sorbet, Blueberry Bushel, Daffodil Delight & Old Olive.  She's a huge fan of the Beatles 'Yellow Submarine' so she had to get this bundle!

From the bottom side, score at the 6 1/2" up to 1 5/8". Now you'll make two cuts across the center two areas from the score lines.

    She used the Most Adored designer paper from Sale-a-Bration (seen here) and Real Red & White. This specialty designer paper is still available and free with any $50 purchase through February – while supplies last.

    The Hooray for Surprises bundle has multiple dies that allow for  peek-a-boo surprises. You can see in the photo below that the heart die-cut can be 'pulled' away to reveal a hidden message. There are multiple dies in this set that provide a tear-away element. It's so cool!
