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

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. I just love when new products arrive — don’t you? 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. This card starts with a Thick Basic Whi

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

Every once in awhile I run across a fun fold card and know immediately that I need to make it. This is one of them. And then when I opened my October 2025 Paper Pumpkin kit, I knew immediately it was the kit's contents I wanted to use to make this amazing card. I knew the large ornament from the kit needed to be the focal image. The Diamond Pillar Pop-up card I originally saw was from Lisa Curcio, but because I was using the Paper Pumpkin Kit's card bases for my decorative la

Have you been waiting like I have for a 12 Projects of Christmas fun fold card? This is it, and it's a fun one! I designed this card around Rachel Tessman's Standing Tiered Accordion Fold card, and the North Pole Delivery Specialty Designer Series Paper is absolutely perfect for it. It's a specialty paper because it includes two sheets of die cuts that coordinate with the rest of the paper. And this one is soooo cute! North Pole Specialty Designer Series Paper pack The two sh
