You're gold pop-out diamond fun fold card

 I've made another pop-out diamond fun fold card for you today.  I love this fold, it looks like it should be so hard but comes together so easily!  It adds an additional wow factor to your handmade card.  I wanted to showcase the Good Luck stamp set as Stampin' Up! rarely gives us a stamp set for St. Patrick's Day.  I suggest you get it as soon as possible before it sales out.  Once Valentine's Day is over, it will start to sell quickly.  To see how I've put my card together, be sure to pop on over to my YouTube channel for the video tutorial.  You can find it easily by clicking this link.

Scalloped Wishes Dies 167452 (can be purchased in a bundle* with coordinating stamps)
    Sneak Peek item (will be available beginning March 3, 2026)
Garden Green cardstock (2) pieces each 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"
    score each piece at 3/4" each end on the long side and @ 2 3/4" in the center
Soft Sea Foam cardstock 2" x 4", emboss with embossing folder
    cut into (4) 1/2" x 4" strips
Soft Sea Foam two-tone cardstock 1 3/4" x 8" stamp & emboss with gold powder
    then cut into two pieces each 1 3/4" x 4" (cut in half on the 8" side)

Thick Basic White cardstock for focal die cut approx. 3 1/2" x 2 3/4" (slightly larger for the die)
Gold Gems (mine are from the 12 Days of Crafting kit in the last chance category)
Ink Pads: Garden Green, Memento Tuxedo Black & VersaMark
Blending Brush 160518
Stampin' Positioner Tool (free in a starter kit through March 2, then available for purchase by the public at a later date to be determined.) 167768
Embossing Additions tool kit 1559971 (optional but helpful)
Take Your Pick Tool 144107 (I use mine for every crafting project I love it so much)

I hope you have enjoyed this card.  It was the make-n-take project for our monthly crop day yesterday and the ladies all loved it.  I hope you give it a try!  My original inspiration for the fun fold came from Susan Campfield.  

Until next time; be happy, good health to you and happy stamping!

Lucky Clover St Patrick’s Day card

 This week I am featuring the Lucky Clover stamp set.  Today’s project is a very simple card put together with scrap strips of paper.  I did use the Lucky Clover punch to punch out the large clovers, but you can just as easily fussy cut them as the punch is already sold out.  I apologize for the lack of inventory.  I have two other projects for you this week and neither of those use the punch.  This is a great little stamp set and pretty inexpensive.  To watch the video replay of how I put this together, head on over to my YouTube channel HERE:



Measurements and Supplies:
Lucky Clover stamp set (Lucky Clover punch optional, fussy cut if you don't have it)
Basic White Thick cardstock 5 1/2 x 8 1/2", scored in center at 4 1/4" for card base
Five (5) 1/2" x 3 1/2" strips in each of Soft Sea Foam and Shaded Spruce cardstock
Basic White cardstock 3 1/2 x 4 3/4" to adhere strips to
Basic White cardstock scrap for stamping and punching shamrocks and 1/2" x 3" piece for sentiment strip
Shaded Spruce and Soft Sea Foam ink pads
For inside:
Basic White cardstock 2 3/4 x 4 1/4" 
Shaded Spruce cardstock 3 x 4 1/2"
