All Occasion card with sweet bugs and fern scenery

For my project today I wanted to use the Sweet Bugs bundle and combine it with Fern & Flora.  They just looked like they would pair so nicely together for a sweet scenery card.  You will also find an early sneak peek of a bundle from the July 2026 Online Exclusives release available to customers beginning July 1st.  There is a bit of die cutting for this card, but I think it is so worth it in the end.  To see how I've put my card together, you can watch the video tutorial over on my YouTube channel by clicking this link.

Cute as a Bug Pop-out Panel card

 I found another neat fun fold today.  I saw a card made by Jacque Williams and was inspired to give this fold a go using the Cute as a Bug designer series paper by Stampin' Up!  This card goes together rather quickly, especially if you use DSP as your background pieces rather than coloring the vines.  To see how I put this card together, be sure to watch the video tutorial over on my YouTube channel by clicking this link.
