I’m so excited to share this pretty column fun fold card with you today! This design is such a fun way to step up your cardmaking, and it’s the perfect project for using those beautiful bits and pieces from the March 2026 Paper Pumpkin kit, Fluttering Garden . Those sweet hummingbirds and soft florals just make my heart happy! For this card, I kept everything light and fresh with a card base from the kit (two pieces 3 3/4" x 4"), one of the envelopes (three pieces 1 1/4" x 4"

I have a beautiful fun fold to share with you today—this is a pop-up cross card , and I just love the elegant look it creates! This card is made with Highland Heather cardstock  and the gorgeous Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper . Those soft purples paired with the natural backgrounds in the paper feel so peaceful and perfect for a spring or Easter card. The real wow with this design comes when you pull it out of the envelope. The panels fold out into a cross shape, gi

I have another fun alternate to share with you today using the February Paper Pumpkin kit – Celebrate Spring ! 💛 I always love stretching my kits a little further, and this one was especially fun to play with because it has all kinds of fun little spring images and die cuts. For this project, I created what I call a modified gate-fold card . It has that gate-fold feel, but the front panels don’t quite meet in the middle—which gives it a really unique look when it’s displayed

I’ve been doing a lot of reflecting lately as I plan a very special event—my 25th Anniversary with Stampin’ Up!® —and I just can’t let this milestone pass without celebrating it with all of you. 💛 This celebration isn’t just about me…it’s about the incredible paper crafting community we’ve built together  over the years. The friendships, the creativity, the laughter (and yes, the occasional stamping mishap!)—that’s what makes this so meaningful. So I’m hosting a Spring Fling

Today I have a fun fold card to share that is truly out of this world!  This project features the brand new Moon & Back  stamp set, which was just released today as part of the March 2026 Online Exclusives.

You can see them all by clicking this pic below: One of the products - the adorable Moon & Back stamp set - just begged to go into my cart on my first pre-order, and this card is why.

Hey friends! I couldn’t wait to share this alternate card I made with January’s Special Delivery  Paper Pumpkin kit. This kit has such a pretty vintage postage, love-letter feel, and it’s been so much fun to play with. With just a few small layout changes—and a little extra cardstock—you can give the kit a completely different look. Don't worry...this card is still quick and easy to make, but it feels polished and a little extra special. The Special Delivery  kit really has m

Wow. This series of project tutorials took twice as long as intended, but with life a little (or a lot) different this Fall, I did what I could in the time I had. But you know what? I - as I always do - enjoyed the journey and every single project this year made me smile. The 12th installment of The 12 Projects of Christmas 2025 leads us to the manger and the baby Jesus, with Designer Series Paper rings that telescope our view right to what's important. That's why I ended wit

I couldn't be more excited about this project because I love love love creating 3D projects with paper! For Project #11 in The 12 Projects of Christmas, I focus on making four charming Christmas tags paired with a custom tag box. The highlight of this project is the tag box, crafted from Crumb Cake and Basic White cardstock, designed to hold the tags neatly and make a perfect gift set or to store tags you'll use yourself. Creating the Christmas Tags The four Christmas tags I

Occasionally I get a wild hair to do something a little nuts when I'm crafting, but more often than not, it turns out great, so it's worth taking the risk. This is one of those times where I was starting to think it was a bad idea, but then when it was done, I had convinced myself it was the right move. That move was the iris folding technique. What is iris folding? ⭐ How it works A template  is placed behind an opening cut into cardstock (for example, a heart, star, circle,

It's not often I use two different Paper Pumpkin kits for two separate 12 Projects of Christmas projects. In fact, this is the first time this has ever happened! With my recent time away from my studio, I've taken a bit of a break from the 12 Projects, but I'm back with Project #9, made with November's Wrapped in Cheer Paper Pumpkin kit. As always, if you are not a Paper Pumpkin subscriber, this simple fun fold card would look amazing with other products, as well. Not only is

With so much on tap at the Rich house, It's been a bit since I've been able to prepare the next project for you. But it's worth the wait! This one uses a simple color blending technique for our background and a ribbon trick that could be a game-changer for people don't feel they can properly tie knots or bows. So after a long-awaited break, here we are: Project #8! Oh, my goodness...so pretty! It features the Jolly Holly Bundle - a stamp set and a coordinating Hybrid Embossin
