Pop Out Diamond Fun Fold with Sweet Bugs

I saw this really cool fun fold Susan Campfield had made and I was inspired to make one of my own.  I love this fold.  It looks really difficult but is extremely easy to make.  I made several cards using different focal images so be sure to check out my Facebook page for photos of those.  Please follow along while I make it in the video tutorial over on my YouTube channel.  You can find it by clicking this link.

This is the reverse side of the card where you can write your message.

This is a look at the card from the top so you can see the diamond shape.

Cozy and Warm Embraced With Love

My featured bundle this week is Christmas Labels.  It is a stamp and die bundle I love, most of all for all the labels and the stamps designed to fit perfectly inside those labels.  I’m starting with a fall card.  I fell in love with the little bear and rabbit reading when I first saw the Embraced with Love stamp.  There are a couple of sentiments in the Christmas Labels bundle that pair perfectly with this particular image.  To see how I’ve put my card together, be sure to watch the replay over on my YouTube channel.
