Two Pocket Card Folder & Pattern
03/19/2021
My ALL-TIME favorite way to package handmade cards as a gift, is this quick and easy TWO-POCKET CARD FOLDER! Here is my pattern that uses one full sheet of card stock. The Folder holds four standard cards or four note cards.
Download Two-Pocket Folder for cards
Embellish the front of the Folder as much or as little as you like. The main thing, REPEAT the colors and images used on the cards inside for a professional look.
Here are the four standard cards and envelopes in this Folder. The same crisp, snappy True Love Designer Paper #154281 was used on this entire project. I used the Medium Daisy Punch #149517 and used the small daisy-like print on each card. The accent is Silver Foil Paper #132178 and the little heart from the Dog Builder Punch #148543. The cards are fast and simple. Pick your favorite designer series paper and try this!

True Love Designer Series Paper by #Stampinup
03/05/2021
Design once, then repeat! This True Love Designer Series Paper #154281 is all black and white. It creates SNAPPY cards!
This is a simple layout. The designer papers create the interest.
I only changed the top layer of designer paper.
Make sure to decorate your enevelope for a finished look. It's easy.
Apply adhesive around the edge of the envelope flap. Lay a straight edge of designer paper on the flat and butted up to the flap crease. Then...
Flip envelope to the backside. Cut off excess designer paper. NO PATTERN NEEDED!

Hydrangea Hill Suite and Envelope VIDEO
02/22/2021
GARDENING TIP: you can change the color of your garden Hydrangeas from pink to BLUE by adding SOIL ACIDIFER, found in your garden center near the fertilizers! It's MAGIC!!
The Hydrangea Hill Suite #155985 is ELEGANT and let's you create any color blossoms you desire on card stock! These are "Z" fold cards cut 4-1/4 X 11" then scrored at 2-3/4 and 5-1/2". VERY EASY! I used the interesting Hydrangea Hill Mercury Glass Designer Acetate sheets #154574. The left one is Highland Heather color. The right one is flipped over to the silver side of the Mercury Glass Acetate.
I inked the flower image in Highland Heather and then "rolled" the edge of the image in Seaside Spray ink for a lovely realistic color combo. That is called the "ROCK & ROLL" technique.
I rarely make just one card at a time, so this one is varied from the other.
Cards this exquisite demand fancy envelopes! The top envelope has the flap covered in the Hydrangea Hill Designer Series Paper #154570. The lower card I created from the same Designer Papers using the border print and here is how:

Hearts & Kisses Stamp Set by Stampin' Up!
01/18/2021
Here is a FUN, unique stamp set, Hearts & Kisses #154345! It also comes as a PUNCH bundle #156201, saving 10%! I paired it with the Flowers for Every Season 6X6" Designer Series Paper #152486.
This sentiment is for a GIRL-to-GIRL Valentine card! The other sentiments in this set can be used all year around!
So then I tried the same fast layout with a bright stripe from the same paper packet! This is totally different look!
The Heart Charms #154282 are sooo easy to use by simply tying them into a twine knot or bow! These cards were fast and fun!
Which is your favorite?? Poppy Parade with the stripe? Magenta Madness with the floral??
