Exploring fun fold card

February 28, 2023February 28, 2023 vargasmj21

This is a super cool card with a pop up surprise when you open the card. I love that we can use some our precious DSP scraps…specially if you are like me and save every tiny bit of them…

I am using the Hues of Happiness Suite, which you can find in the Annual Catalog. I think the minute I saw this suite, I fell in love with it, and have enjoyed working with it. I made 2 other cards using Sale-A-Bration papers and the Mini catalog.

Let’s create a carrousel card

February 20, 2023February 20, 2023 vargasmj21

Carrousel cards are fun and easy to make. It offers countless possibilities to play with our designer series paper and stamps. Let’s learn how to make it.

I made several of these beauties, but the one on the video tutorial uses the Texture Chic Paper and the Texture Chic Memories Pack (which you can get for free this month if you use my host code) You can find both of them in the Annual catalog. I know we always get super excited with the Mini Catalogs, but the Annual catalog has wonderful stamps set and ideas.
