Back on January 23rd, I was one of the video presenters at an event called Demos Galore which was held virtually like it had been the time before in September. For my video presentation I created and shared several cards and projects featuring the In Bloom Bundle and the coordinating Sale-a-Bration designer paper. I’ve shared two of those projects in recent blog posts. But today I thought I’d share show another one of the fun folds and then show ALL the projects that were in that presentation.
So I just showed live on YouTube about an hour ago step-by-step directions for creating a Kite Fold Card using the Paper Blooms Designer Paper (available through February 28, 2021) and the coordinating In Bloom Bundle (the In Bloom Stamp Set and the Pierced Blooms Dies). And now I’m sharing that video here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video by clicking here (or you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog post), scroll through the close-up photos that follow, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video. Below are measurements, close-up photos, and a product list for the kite card I demonstrated. (Please subscribe to my YouTube channel so you can get updates when I share and go live).

Watched your Kite Card Video- great presentation. Before I saw how you cut the pieces for the kite, which I liked how you saved on DSP, I thought you were going to use the Stitched Triangle Dies. I should have known that you were going to use math
I watch and follow you often.
Thanks Jayne.🪁
Hehehe….I suppose you could use the triangle dies, but I don’t own them. So I’m not sure what size kite you would get from them.
AMAZING cards and professional video! No one can compare 😀 Can’t wait to make these cards for St. Patty’s Day – Big fan in Silicon Valley
Thank you so much KT! Your comment made me blush. The St. Patty’s Day kite cards sound amazing!
What an adorable card – big smiles. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Kathy! 😘
Absolutely love the kite cards. For me it is like a hallmark movie. All the side comments are helpful.
Oh, when you are watching the video on YouTube? Yes…it’s fun to read through them. I agree.
Thanks Bonnie. ❤️
Love the kite card and directions. Thanks so much for the video and measurements.
Yay! Glad you enjoyed what I shared Kevin. Thx!
Thanks again for a wonderful card and your thorough instructions and product list. You mentioned the kite could be secured closed with a Velcro dot or a magnet. Thanks to your listing I found and ordered the Velcro dots. Where could of find the little magnets? I remember them from another video but don’t know where to find them. Thanks for your help.
Thanks Andrea. Here is that link…https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08MW6KX5G/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
