Exploring fun fold card

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.

Concertina Fold Card

The Concertina fold is by no means as new fold, but it is definitely one of those folds that I think are memorable. I was a little intimidated at first, but I have to say, it is not difficult to make. Let’s learn together how to make this fun fold. Are you ready?

I am using for this card the Fitting Florets DSP and the Framed Florets bundle. If you have not gotten this product yet, hurry up because the last day to order it is 1/4/23. You really don’t want to miss it.

A different way to make waterfall cards

Isn’t it wonderful when you find an easier way to make a card? This version of the waterfall card, really worked for me. I feel that the card is much steadier and there will be no issues with it, long term.

I used one of my absolute favorite Suites from the Mini Catalog: the Santa Express Suite. I have made several cards with this suite, some of them are very simple, all you need is to add pieces from the Memory Card Pack. I totally recommend it.

Super cute Christmas Pop Up Card

Creating pop up cards has become a fun learning process/ challenge for me. Just like any other card, it has its own learning curve… and I think I am finally understanding well how to make these cards. I made a video tutorial to share with you what I have learned so far and create with you a super cute Christmas card.

I have realized that I get far too excited when I envision a card and when I actually have to make, several stamp sets or dies are needed to make it. The good news is that it shows that we can mix and match our stamps to create new outcomes. There are 3 different stamp sets/ dies being used in this card: Jingle, Jingle, Jingle, Cup of tea, and Regal Reindeer. I am also using the Sweetest Christmas Designer Series paper.
