I made a Double Fold card with the motorcycle on it earlier this year. I looked at the Merriest Trees and decided I wanted to make another one- a little different.
Here’s the inside:
And here’s a short video of the card being opened:
Here’s my video making it- and you get to see the 4 cards I have in the Merriest Trees PDF Tutorial!
Here’s all the measurements for this card- you can also see the PDF for the Double Fold Card under my “instructions” on the right side or on the bottom from a phone.
Card Base: 5-1/2″ x 11″ Scored at 4″ and 8-1/4″
Snow DSP: 3-3/4″ x 5-1/4″
Balmy Blue Shimmer: 5-3/8″ x 3-7/8″ Die cut with the Deckled Rectangles dies to make a frame.
Shaded Spruce Shimmer below trees: 5-1/2″ x 3/8″
Snow DSP inside the card below the trees: 1/4″ x 5-1/4″

How about a double fold card using the Ready to Ride suite/ Legendary Ride bundle?
I saw a card on a demo Facebook Page that was a double fold that was so pretty. She used Rays of Light and the Mountain Air stamps and dies. I decided I wanted to make one but wanted to make it a little different.
This is what it looks like when opened:
I was selling cards at a Vendor Fair last week and a few people asked me if I had more man cards. I did not. So, on my list of things to do was to make men cards!
I was looking through my stuff deciding what to use. I saw the motorcycle and I was like- “that would be a really cool card!”
The size of this card is 5-1/2″ x 11″. Scored at 4″ and 8-1/4″.
The DSP is 3-3/4″ x 5-3/8″ on the top where the sentiment is.
On the bottom, below the motorcycle, the DSP is 1″ x 5-1/2″.
Inside there are two pieces of DSP- on the top and bottom. Both are 1-5/16″x 5-1/2″.
Here’s my full video:
I have a short one on Pinterest, Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok!
I saw the Pop & Twist (or Pop & Fold) technique years ago, and saw it again recently. I love it!
After making a vertical card, I decided I wanted to make a horizontal one. I had to figure out the dimensions and thought I’d make a video of how to do it!
I show how to do both in this video.
This card shown is just one of the four I show in the video. I’ll share the others soon!
I first stamped the Rays of Light on Basic White with So Saffron ink. I stamped the tree branch (from the Perched In a Tree stamp set and Aspen Tree Dies) with Early Espresso. I used one of my water painters to bleed the ink a little.
The leaves is one of the dies from Aspen Tree dies. I used the In Color Glimmer paper.
For the inside, I used the kite die from the Playing in the Rain dies. The letters are from the A la Mode dies.
To see my PDFs of instructions (it’s two pages- one for vertical, one for horizontal), here you go (click on it to see both pages). They will also be under my instructions:
When I saw the Share a Milkshake stamp set in the mini, I loved it, but I especially loved the sentiment “You’re the Cherry on Top”. I’ve had the Sweetest Cherries bundle for a while and I always thought it should have the sentiment!
I wanted the cherries to have some shine or sparkle, so I looked through all my stuff and the Gilded Leafing won!
Since the cherries are shiny gold, I decided to put the Distressed Gold paper behind my Split Card Textures die cut.
Here’s another card I made during the video. Just some color change and I added leaves from the punch with Distressed Gold.
Here’s the quick video of me making the pink card:
This card is simple and uses an old school technique. Use a die as a stencil!
I saw a card months ago and it reminding me of that technique. I wanted to try it again! The first card I did was the Sweet Christmas card you can see here:
I then started doing it on tons of cards. I love the technique and it’s so easy! Here’s my video (you’ll see lots of cards in this, including ones I’ve never shown):
For this card, I used Sweet Sorbet and Calypso Coral with Blending Brushes for the hearts. I also covered the small hearts with the Wink of Stella.
The sentiment is from the Kindest Gnomes stamp set.
For the Gnome, I colored him with Calypso, Sorbet, Balmy Blue and Medium Light Blends.
I scored a few lines around the edges with the Scored Tool.

First, here’s the video of the changes (and you’ll get to see my puppy!):
And here’s the original video:
But, I made some big changes. Here we go! (I am including original pictures and links)
My desk where I make videos. I used to have it covered with a table cloth, but that was kinda annoying. So I found some things to make the desk more usable. The first picture is how it used to look, the next two is how it looks now:
Here’s the biggest change- my Ikea Kallax. After using it for a few weeks, I decided I really wanted a bigger one. Ikea is great with returns-if it is assembled, you have 180 days to return. You just bring in the big heavy thing and they give you your money back! I got the new one and added doors to the bottom.
I added TONS of stuff from Stamp-N-Storage. I love their products, it has made my room so much more organized.
Here’s the pictures and links from the first post:
How I store my stamps. I like to see all of them. Sometimes you need a certain size stamp and I can look through all of them and find one that works! Here’s what I use:
How I store my markers. On the right side, I have 4 cases that hold my Write Markers, Aqua Painters, Watercolor Pencils. If you buy the full set of Write Markers:
