Framed Violets Gate Fold Pop Up Card Tutorial

Posted on by

I didn’t get to share my tutorial with you on Friday like I normally do, so I thought I’d take a few minutes and share it today.

The fun fold is called a Gate Fold Pop Up and is great for showing off our wonderful Violets Dream Designer Series Paper since it is so beauitful.

Check out the inside of this card

The pop up section layers in on it self to hid the inside sentiment

And when opens stands also displaying all full inside of the card.

This card is so much fun to create and works wonderfully with our Two Tone Papers that are currently on sale in August. While you can use our regular card stock to create this card, the Two Tone is a bit lighter and makes it a bit easier to work with. Plus you’ve got the benefit of two shades of your color to make the gate contrast with the cards other elements. A win., win!

Why not check out this beautiful Violet Dreams Suite (Online Exclusive 168200) and fun Two Tone Card stock today?

Who doesn’t love a Shaker Card?

Posted on by

Today’s card is a fun shaker card and teams up two bundles from our Mini, the Safari Smiles Bundle (167574) and Balloon Festoon Bundle (167606).

Aren’t they just too cute together?

This card uses Smoky Slate as a base to stamp this little elephant and these blends to add depth to the image. The large balloon die was used to create the shaker and two smaller balloons have been cut from our 2026-2028 In Color Pearlized Specialty Paper (167766). The NEW White Gel Pens (166642) add a bit of highlight to the images. And of course simple stamping and some sponging was used for the background.

This card has lots of texture plus that fun shaker element making it perfect for someone one special!

What do you think? Why not check out these two fun bundles in my Online Store?

Soft & Sweet Monochromatic Scalloped Blooms

Posted on by

Today’s card is done in Crisp Cantaloupe and fun soft color that reminds me of a summer color pallet.

It also uses our fun patterns from the 2026-2028 In Color Painted Patterns Designer Series Paper (167755) and shows off these bold patterns well.

The versatile stamp set Scalloped Blooms Bundle (167467) uses a lovely font and has all occasions sentiments, while the dies are great basic shapes, making it a wonderful staple for your crafting needs.

What do you think? Do you love monochromatic cards like this? I love the ease of creating a monochromatic card and the impact the color makes.

They are also great when you’re building your color collection. And the In Colors are a great place to start since not only can you get the ink pads bundled to save they also have papers like this pack that have all 5 colors too!

Extraordinary Life

Posted on by

Today’s card is a clean and simple layout that sends a lovely message and it uses a Designer Series Paper that is part of our Sale this month, the Beautiful Ordinary Life Designer Series Paper (167553).

I love the patterns in this paper pack there is such a variety to choose from, making it a wonderful choice since each paper gives you a different feel for your project.

The sentiment from the Extraordinary Life stamp set (167713) is stamped in Golden Glow for a bolder sentiment it pulls out the Daffodil Delight strip from this paper.

And the cute little embellishments, Dreamy Flowers (167916) gives it some fun texture and interest too. I love the way we can mix and match our products!

Thoughtful Octopus

Posted on by

Today’s card uses the fun little Thoughtful Octopus Stamp set (Online Exclusive 167955)

This fun little set contains cute little two step images and all occasions sentiments.

Today’s card is also done using our very popular In Color Hydrangea Hue and highlights the fun patterns that are part of the 2026-2028 In Color Painted Patterns Designer Series Paper (167755) which has fun bold patterns. The Stylish Shapes Dies (159183) that were used to cut out this fellow are perfect for this project and repeat the circle images from the Designer Series Paper. A great basic die set I reach for all the time!

A bit of our Hydrangea Hue 3/8″ Bordered Ribbon (167549) adds some texture and the fun little Iridescent Pearls Basic Jewels (158987) add some shine.

I have a soft spot in my heart for these little guys after getting a chance to learn about them and interact with them during a trip a few years ago.

Sunset Coast Torn Edge Technique Card Tutorial

Posted on by

I’ve got another fun card using the Sunset Coast Dies (167780) for you today this time using a quick and simple technique.

The torn edge – I love this technique since it always gives you a little different look based on how you tear the card stock. Now, when I was new to stamping this really bothered me as I wanted all my cards to look the same, but once you embrace the inconstancy you’ll find yourself tearing away!

Want to see the card? Here you go

I really like the way it turned out since the torn edge feels very natural to me.

Want to see how I created this card? I’ve got a little video tutorial for you. And of course, a PDF too!

Sunset Coast Torn Edge Technique Card PDF

Enjoy!

And great news starting Tuesday, August 4th we’ve got a sale starting along with our NEW August Product of the month too!

Posted on by

Today’s card uses a simple fun fold to create a fun little card.

Done in cheerful Crisp Cantaloupe, Lemon Lime Twist and Granny Apple this card swings open on the top and bottom allowing the inside sentiment to peek out. The sweet little butterflies from the All Aflutter Bundle (167570) have been stamped onto the 2026-2028 In Color Pearlized Specialty Paper (167766) for a bit of shine and the Dewdrop Embellishments (167748) add a bit more shine.

The Spotlight on Nature Dies (163580) not only serve as a focal point but also allow you to write a message on the inside too.

Sound like a fun fold to try? The base for this card is 5 1/2″ x 7 3/4″ and has been scored at 1 3/4″ and 6″ along the long side. The inside panel is your standard 5 1/4″ x 4″ one.
