This card started with us wanting just a little something different ; not a wild, twisty fold that needs a cheat sheet, but also not a standard front-fold card we’ve made a hundred times. Enter the Diagonal Joy Fun Fold , which immediately had us smiling before we even finished assembling it. There’s something about that angled front panel that look amazing right out of the gate. We paired this fold with the Sweet Bugs Bundle and the Cute as a Bug Designer Series Paper. The s

This card started in a very familiar way: we wanted something calm. Not bold, not loud, not a “look at me from across the room” card. Just something gentle and thoughtful—the kind of card you make when you’re thinking about someone specific while you’re crafting. The Sweet Bugs Bundle was already out (because apparently it lives on our table now), and the Cute as a Bug Designer Series Paper had one of those subtle patterns that makes you slow down instead of rush. We didn’t p

This card is what happens when we say, “Okay, just one quick card,” and then immediately choose a fold that pops up like it made our plans for the evening 😂 The Sweet Bugs Bundle was already on the table because we were working on this card , the Cute as a Bug Designer Series Paper was too adorable to ignore, and next thing we knew… we had ants marching across the front like they were headed to a tiny parade (get it? lol). We also love that this card stands up on its own. It

This card happened during one of those crafting sessions where we were technically  cleaning up… but somehow ended up making another card instead. You know the kind. Paper scraps still on the table, inks already open, and just enough time to “try one more thing.” The Cute as a Bug Designer Series Paper was sitting right there, and that little caterpillar kept catching our eye every time we reached for something else. Once the Sweet Bugs Bundle we knew we needed it because, ye

This card is proof that a clean layout can still be a show-off. We put the Lovely Blossoms Designer Series Paper on the table, and those bold Secret Sea leaves immediately stole the spotlight—so we decided to frame it like the main character it is. The goal was simple: create a polished thank-you card that looks intentional, not overloaded. A few crisp layers, a little texture, a soft ribbon detail, and a sentiment you can use for basically anyone (clients, friends, teachers

This cheerful card design celebrates everything we love about handmade paper crafting—colorful florals, layered textures, and a sweet sentiment that says it all. Created with the Pop-Up Petals Bundle, this layout combines easy stamping with bold color choices for a look that feels happy, polished, and heartfelt. We chose a mix of Old Olive, Blackberry Bliss, and pops of Timid Tiger for a combination that feels warm and lively. The floral background paper from the Floral Charm

There’s something timeless about a handmade thank-you card, especially one that feels as fresh and polished as this design. We used the Pop-Up Petals Bundle from Stampin’ Up! to create this clean and modern layout that still carries all the warmth of a handmade touch. Soft embossed texture, paired with patterned paper and layered squares, gives this card subtle depth without overcomplicating the design. The mix of floral patterns and solid prints from the Floral Charm Designe

This project brings together everything we love about handmade cards: beautiful paper, soft florals, and a touch of texture that feels effortless. The Pop-Up Petals Bundle takes center stage, paired with the Floral Charm Designer Series Paper to create an elegant design perfect for celebrating friendship. The layout is a simple fun fold that opens to reveal a warm message, “Grateful for your friendship.” With deep tones of Blackberry Bliss and delicate floral patterns, this c
