Happy World Card Making Day! Yes, today is the day you have the world’s permission to make time for this fun paper-crafting hobby (in case you needed an excuse to get away to your craft room).
One of my most popular YouTube videos that I shared on September 16th featured how to get five different cards from one accordion folded piece of designer paper. I have that video on my September 16th blog post. I created two different cards with one of the folds. And then four days later on September 20th I shared the completed cards for the remaining four folds. Be sure to click on those links to see all the cards I created. Maybe those cards will inspire you today to pull out that designer paper that has been sitting on your shelves?
I’m sharing five more of the z-fold style cards from that fold but with different products. By the way, these cards all have a slightly smaller sheet of designer paper. I trimmed off 1/4″ from the left end to expose more of both sides of the designer paper on the front section. You can see the difference between the top card (that I shared on the 20th) and the bottom one.
So I’ll start with that one.
You may be wondering were I got that pretty blue designer paper? I added Balmy Blue ink with a sponge brayer and just sponged more ink on the left and less on the right to get that ombré look.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Measurements…
Peony Garden Designer Paper
5-1/4″ x 12″ scored parallel to the short side at 2″, 5″, and 8″ (then trim off 1/4″ from the left edge)
OR…5-1/4″ x 11-3/4″ scored parallel to the short side at 1-3/4″, 4-3/4″, and 7-3/4″
Basic Gray Cardstock
4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″
3-1/2″ x 4-3/4″ for die-cutting two rectangles
Whisper White Cardstock
2-3/4″ x 4-1/8″
1-7/16″ x 3-7/16″
Silver Metallic-Edge Ribbon
6-1/2″
Directions…
Die-cut the 3″ x 4-3/8″ Stitched Rectangle from the 3-1/2″ x 4-3/4″ Basic Gray piece. Then die-cut the 1-11/16″ x 3-11/16″ Stitched Rectangle from the center if this.
Stamp the images on the smallest Whisper White piece as shown. (The lighter gray is achieved by stamping off on scrap paper first.)
Brayer the designer paper – darker color on the left and hardly any color on the right to get the ombré look.
Fold designer paper. Attach ribbon and tuck it before adhering the left section down. (Watch the video for other tips on this fold.)
These other four cards are made the same way but show off the beautiful Gilded Autumn Designer Paper which is now on MAJOR backorder. It won’t be available until the end of November. (Sorry if you are one of those who ordered it and are waiting.) But if you DO have it (or can wait), these are some cards that you could recreate.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.

MY ONLINE PAPER CRAFTERS CLUB IS LOOKING FOR NEW MEMBERS We are looking for more to join our online Paper Crafters club. The commitment is to order at least $25 worth of Stampin’ Up! product in each of 6 consecutive months. In one of those months, you would reap the hosting rewards (free merchandise based on the club orders). And then you’d also be able to get in on monthly product perks that would be sent to you along with your monthly club cards.
I recently received this beautiful card from my friend Cheryl Lee. She made it with several products from the Forever Greenery Suite and the “thank you” image from the Magnolia Blooms Stamp Set (a retired stamp set).
I loved the look and the layout so much that I recreated it and made a couple navy and white versions by substituting in a few products from the Boho Indigo Medley. This is the first one. And below the directions is the second one. I’d love to know which one appeals to you more. I made the one with the gray circle first. But after making the second one with the white circle, I think that one is my favorite.
Here are the details if you wish to make one (or both) of these.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Measurements…
Night of Navy Cardstock
5-1/2″ x 7-1/2″ scored parallel to short end at 4-1/4″
Scraps for die-cutting a couple branch pieces
Misty Moonlight Cardstock
Scrap for die-cutting a branch piece
Boho Indigo Designer Paper
1-1/4″ x 5-1/2″
Whisper White Cardstock
2-3/4″ x 5-1/4″
Outer cardstock layer (Smoky Slate or Whisper White Cardstock)
3″ x 5-1/2″
Circular piece (Smoky Slate or Whisper White Cardstock)
Scrap for die-cutting 2-3/8″ diameter Stitched Shapes circle
Forever Trim (Gold Metallic Trim)
6″
Directions…
Emboss the outer cardstock layer with the Greenery Embossing Folder. Then die-cut the branch pieces with the dies in the Boho Indigo Medley and the stitched circular sentiment piece.
Stamp the sentiment on the circular piece. Then adhere the Gold Hoop with Fine Tip Glue. Set aside to dry.
Stamp the inside image on the 2-3/4″ x 5-1/4″ Whisper White piece. (I first stamped on scrap paper and then onto the cardstock. This way I got a lighter shade of blue.)
Attach the rectangular layers to the Night of Navy card base.
After the Fine Tip Glue is dry, flip the sentiment circle over and add a bit of Seal Adhesive behind that upper left area. Add a leaf piece from the Forever Gold Laser Cut Paper and the two blue die-cut branch pieces. Then place quite a few Dimensionals across the back of the left portion of that circle securing those embellishments and attaching this focal point to the front of the card.
Use Glue Dots to add the horizonal navy branch and the gold bow.
Embellish with Gold Glitter Enamel Dots or the flowers from the medley.
Thanks for visiting! Tomorrow I’ll be sharing lots of other cards I’ve been give recently.

Several of my Online Paper Crafter’s Club members earned a product bonus based on their August club order amounts – a generous sampling of the new Brushed Metallic Cardstock! After cutting the sheets to 6 x 11 inches, I ended up with several one inch strips of this beautiful metallic paper. So those pieces were the beginning inspiration for my club cards which I am sharing with you today. My apologies to my club members, though…I’m still preparing these gifts and finishing up the cards for all 30 of you. Things are taking me a bit more time now that I’m dealing with a broken toe. Yes…darn it, I broke my toe bone. My son has a broken finger. I have a broken toe. We are hoping that my other son and my husband are not next.
I just showed live on YouTube about an hour ago how I made use of these Brushed Metallic scraps, images from the Rustic Retreat Stamp Set, the Evergreen Embossing Folder, and some fun ink to put together some handsome thinking of you cards. 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 shared my Sending Sunshine RAK (Random Acts of Kindness) cards about a month ago on my blog and on YouTube.
And then I got a request from David, one of my YouTube viewers to make another version of this card…a nighttime scene. So here it is! I actually showed it off the following week in my next Online Paper Crafting Class (around the 9-1/2 minute mark).
Here are some details if you wish to recreate it.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Punch a 1/2″ Circle from a sticky note. Place it on the Shimmery White Cardstock positioned above the water reflection. This will become the moon. Place a sticky note over the stamped water to keep that area from getting inked, too.
Then sponge on color for the sky…Highland Heather closest to the moon. Misty Moonlight furthest. And Gorgeous Grape in-between.
Remove the sticky notes. Sponge the lower corners with Misty Moonlight. Stamp the leaves with Tuxedo Black ink.
Add to the Black Glimmer Paper folded card base. And add the Highland Heather piece on the inside with a stamped sentiment if you wish.
These RAK cards are small and can be easily carried around in your purse, car, or wallet. Pull them out when you want to write a quick thank you or thinking of you note to someone who makes your day a little brighter OR to someone whose day YOU want to brighten. It’s so fun to spread Random Acts of Kindness.

MY ONLINE PAPER CRAFTERS CLUB IS LOOKING FOR NEW MEMBERS We are looking for more to join our online Paper Crafters club. The commitment is to order at least $25 worth of Stampin’ Up! product in each of 6 consecutive months. In one of those months, you would reap the hosting rewards (free merchandise based on the club orders). And then you’d also be able to get in on monthly product perks that would be sent to you along with your monthly club cards.
Friend and fellow demonstrator, Marciene Ingram gave me a birthday card that I fell in love with. She said she got the idea for the fold from Pinterest. And after a bit of investigating, I discovered that it was a card from Jackie Bolhuis that she CASEd. I was so excited with the way it was made that I made several versions of this fun-fold since using lots of other product.
I just showed live on YouTube about an hour ago how to make some beautiful versions of this “flap fold” card with products from the Snowflake Splendor Suite in the Aug-Dec 2020 Mini Catalog: Snowflake Wishes Stamp Set, So Many Snowflakes Dies, Snowflake Splendor Designer Paper, Winter Snow Embossing Folder, Blue Adhesive-Backed Gems, and Snowflake Splendor Ribbon. 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), 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.
