🌻 This card looks much harder than it is!

I pulled out the beautiful Radiant Sunflowers Bundle and Sunflower Fields Designer Series Paper to make a Triple Point fun fold—and I had forgotten just how easy this fold is.

I have all the measurements and step-by-step instructions on the blog today, along with a FREE printable PDF tutorial. And there’s lots more fun-fold inspiration waiting for you in today’s blog hop!

Come take a look and give this one a try! 🌻

Apparently, I have reached the stage of grandparenthood where I know exactly which child I'm picking up from kindergarten...I just can't remember his name. 😂
Poor Noah. I keep telling the school I'm there for his DAD, Adam!

Thankfully, I had a little more success in the craft room. My August Paper Pumpkin kit showed up before I'd even touched July's, so that was my sign to get busy!
I made two completely different cards—a pretty floral wreath and a monochromatic easel card with LOTS of texture.

I'm sharing both cards, measurements, and step-by-step instructions on the blog today. And if you've never made a wreath card, I've got a simple trick that makes it so much easier!

Take a peek and tell me—which card is your favorite, #1 or #2?

Have you ever gone shopping in your own craft room? 😂

That's exactly what happened when I rediscovered the Heirloom Arrangements Kit during my recent stash cleanout. I had only used it once, but those beautiful butterflies deserved another chance!

I turned the kit into this easy Pinwheel Tower fun fold, and I love how it turned out. It looks impressive, but I promise—it's much easier than it looks!

Even better, the Heirloom Arrangements Kit is currently in the Last Chance section for only $16. Yes, I may have put another one in my cart. 😂

When I saw that this month’s Blog Hop theme was “Animal House,” I knew I wanted to play with the adorable animals in the Christmas Crew stamp set. But why should these little guys have all the fun at Christmas? I decided to make a Christmas card first, then see if I could stretch those same adorable images into something completely different. And that’s how a Christmas bear ended up on a birthday card!

Guess what? My new preorder arrived Wednesday, and I couldn’t resist playing with the beautiful Sunflower Fields Suite! 🌻

I had a completely different card planned for today’s Creative Creases challenge, but these new goodies won. 😂

This easy fun fold is perfect for showing off beautiful Designer Series Paper—and it’s simple enough to make when you’re short on time or just getting started with fun folds.

I love when a card looks more complicated than it really is!

Come see the card, the fun fold, and why I think you’ll want to give this one a try. ❤️

I gave myself a little challenge...

Normally, distressing means just the edges of my Designer Series Paper or cardstock. But this time, I wondered if I could create a card where the distressed look was the focal point on the card. 😊

The beautiful Bloom Boutique Designer Series Paper with the Everyday Arches Dies was the perfect time to try it out,and everything started coming together. Then I added the sweetest butterflies and discovered a little trick for lining up the coordinating punch that made the project even easier!

If you'd like to read more about my card, learn my butterfly punch tip, and download the FREE printable PDF tutorial, I'd love to have you stop by my blog!

💗 Would you try distressing your focal point like this? I'd love to know in the comments!

Have you ever gone looking for one thing in your craft room and discovered something you'd completely forgotten?

That's exactly what happened to me this weekend! While organizing my supplies, I rediscovered a kit that reminded me why I fell in love with those beautiful garden gates in the first place. 🌸

I ended up creating three cards and even found a fun new way to stretch the kit by using the card bases differently.

I'd love for you to take a stroll through my little garden and let me know which card is your favorite! 💚

Welcome to the July Paper Poppy Insta Hop!
We’re a group of current Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrators who want to inspire you using our favorite products.
This month, we’re focusing on our favorites in the May-August Catalog. Our team has created projects that can spark ideas for your own papercrafting! You’ll find color combinations, new ways to use designer paper, and other great ideas. The hop lineup is below to see every wonderful project!

My favorite summertime getaway doesn't require packing a suitcase.
It starts with cardstock, ink, and the Sunset Coast collection. I keep reaching for Sunset Coast, Relaxing Waterside, and the coordinating designer papers. They remind me of lazy afternoons by the water and make every card feel like a little vacation.
A PDF tutorial is available on my blog post! https://wp.me/p4bS0N-cTu
