Flowers and More Fun Fold – Country Bouquet.
Flowers and More Fun Fold Does not look too much like a fun fold front this side does it?? Well the Flowers and More Fun Fold is VERY deceiving. The colors used here are Fresh Freesia and Night of Navy. I was very pleasantly surprised by this color combo. However, I love this Night of Navy Bordered ribbon. Sooo pretty!! Let me also add that it is super easy to tie. You can also see that I used the Medium Daisy punch. Two of the Fresh Freesia and one of the Night of Navy. Adding in a few Rusting Metallic dots for the center of the punched out daisy. Now…

The gate fold was created for the Culver Library ladies. The regular fold was for YouTube. Have you seen that video?? If not check it out here. Here are the close ups. The heart spots were a suggestion in my live. I loved the suggestion too! I also love the Black and White concept for all different holidays. Who doesn’t love a pop of Real Red, right??

Coffee and Cards did you Coffee and Cards did you catch last weeks?? I pulled out the retired and now in the Clearance rack Ever Eden Specialty Paper. I even added in another clearance rack item, the Acorn Trinkets. Did I mention this is on YouTube too?? Ohhh and both are still available a whole week later… But there is more… You guessed it … A super Fancy Fun Fold. Now, it is not hard to do make, however, you need to be patient. Because when you cut the cardstock on a diagonal it does not fit in your trimmer. I take a deep breath and cut a section and…

Fun Fold coloring birthday, simple but fancy
Fun Fold coloring birthday I have a simple Fun Fold coloring birthday card idea for today. Using the Perfectly Penciled DSP, Pale Papaya cardstock and Basic Black.

Slimline Flip Flap fold, using the Kindest Gnomes.
Slimline Flip Flap fold Ohhh if you have not made a Slimline card or a Flip Flap you are missing out. Check out this Slimline Flip Flap fold. It is the perfect mix of the two. The Storybook Gnomes were the perfect match for this slimline. I was super excited to see if I would get the gnomes to climb the “rope” Using the Twine Essential pack to mix and “braid” the twine for out rope. Here is my favorite part. You could pick any of the four gnomes to have climbing the rope. My favorite one is the one peeking from under his hat. Using the DSP (patterned paper)…

See just the simple stamping. All that was added here was the birds and sentiment. Isn’t it beautiful?? Wondering when I made this one?? Well this was part of the February Ding Dong Ditch.

Sale-a-Bration Bird fun fold, Birthday card
Sale-a-Bration Bird fun fold I am loving this Sale-a-Bration Bird fun fold. This card idea was from the Culver Library Class. Those lovely ladies LOVE fun folds. I especially like doing easy fun folds! This one uses NOTHING extra. But ohh, doesn’t it look fancy!! This Stamp set Friendly Hello is FREE with a $100 purchase (there is DSP too!). I would say this could be a simple stamping card, but there are just too many die cuts on it. Starting off with the Stitched So Sweetly dies. That is where the scalloped rectangles come from. That little leave die is from the Forever Flourishing dies. Think greenery on that…

Second Christmas Mystery Card idea with Trees.
Second Christmas Mystery Card Here is our Second Christmas Mystery Card Night card idea. Now I know that you are familiar with the Perfectly Plaid stamp set and Pine Tree punch. However, the Wintery 3D embossing folder is new in the annual catalog. I wonder if you have kinda bypassed it?? I know, I know, it is not winter yet, which is what make the Christmas in July events so much fun!! Some are wishing for cooler weather (like me) and some are planning Christmas cards already. Either way both are a welcome ideas here. Merry Christmas and the Just Jade “label” that is is on was made using the…

However do not miss out on the whole Tidings of Christmas suite. You will see parts of that suite later this week. This whole week will be celebrations Christmas in July. Even in my lives this week.

Last June Alternatives and peek Here we are with the Last June Alternatives and peek at what we can look forward to for August. Starting with this fun fold. I am excited to say that I only added the 4 1/4 x 11 cardbase to this card. All the parts and pieces are from the kit. Ohh and the Craft White and Soft Succulent ink. Remember the Coffee Cup alternative?? The left over section is what I used on the front. I knew that it needed a pop of color so I used only two of the three sections that came in the kit. Using the stamps that came with…

I have tried Flirty Flamingo with Real Red for this card. However, I have also used Calypso Coral and Cherry Cobbler. One more combo that I need to try is Real Red and Cherry Cobbler. Which to me is the obvious color combo. Although it really would not have a ton of contrast. Wanting to show you a little how the fold works. Yes, there really is a lot of cardstock and DSP…

Envelope Fun Fold yes an easy one from class.
Envelope Fun Fold yes an easy one Here is an Envelope Fun Fold yes, an easy one from Fun Fold Class. I do really like this one. Another that uses a regular cardbase. I wanted to try and mix a little of the soon to be retiring items with a few new. I will share more about that. The fold really is perfect and very well could be a gift card holder. I would put the gift card holder on the bottom flap. It really is easy, just add a piece of scrap to the left or right side. DONE!! Dontcha love that flower. The technique is called Two Step.…

Pop Out Fun Fold with a new In Color
Pop Out Fun Fold I want to share the third Pop Out Fun Fold card. This one completely reminds me of summer. Funny how that works because the stamp set is called Shaded Summer. hahaha. I am going to say that this card is not easy. However, very much worth trying to figure out. You can always head over to my Facebook Live and catch the replay. No worries because I have several photos that will help you create this card too. I bet you are wondering what that little “stamp” sized punch is from. Grab your rectangular postage stamp punch. All you need is a little scrap and punch…

Smile Accordion Fun Fold From the front the Smile Accordion Fun Fold looks pretty standard, right?? Wait until you open it!! Using all of my favorites for this one… Stitched So Sweetly dies, Daisy Lane stamp set and the Medium Daisy punch. However, do not pass by that Linen Thread. Are you ready for the fun part?? Here is where the fun in fun fold comes in. Let me just say that really all you need is another long cut cardbase. It sure was fun to create and really after the scores are done. It too was pretty easy. Here is another fun add. It is a gift card holder.…

First of the Fun Fold Cards, this is an easy one!
First of the Fun Fold Cards Here is the First of the Fun Fold Cards. I want to say that this one is one of the EASY ones too! My favorite part is that you use a regular cardbase to start. If you have done any fun (fancy) folds you know that most take a TON of paper. You might need to start with 12 x 12 paper. UGGHH, right?? Not this one. What does that mean?? Well you still get two cards from one piece of 8 1/2 x 11 piece of cardstock. Which is a win when you do not have a lot of colors or cardstock in…

Fun Fold Treat Box, because candy is necessary!!
Fun Fold Treat Box Okay, I just start off with saying chocolate is needed for the Fun Fold Treat Box. As you can see there is LOTS of it in this little box. I also want to add this box is from scrap of one of the fun folds that we made. Yes, no scraps for this one!! WooHOO. Even the decorating is from the scrap bin. I do love when you can create such cute ideas without cutting a BIG full piece of cardstock. However, if you need to make several then this would yield two boxes from one piece. I used a few different items here… The leaves…

Last of Mystery Card Night from May.
Last of Mystery Card Night Here is the Last of Mystery Card Night from May. She sure is a cutie, right?? Remember the theme was farm animals. Yes, I do think that a rabbit is a farm animal. I justify this because they get shown at the 4H fair. This stamp comes from the soon retiring Springtime Joy stamp set. The butterflies are a bonus from this stamp set. Would you not agree?? Out colors here are Daffodil Delight and Granny Apple Green. Using the same colors the rabbits flowers and leaves. How?? Well, do not forget that there are TWO different watercolor pencils packs. Assortment one has the Daffodil…
