#82 Weekly Wednesday ~ Super Easy Fun Fold Card

Designer Series Paper, Fun Fold Cards, Happy Birthday, Thank You /

Hello my stamping friends. I hope you are staying warm. The temperature is pretty cold in St. Louis and we have a ton of snow on the ground. I am guessing anywhere between 9 and 10 inches. Yes, it is the perfect weather for creating fun fold cards and I have a super easy one for you today.

This is such a fun and totally easy card but it sure does pack that wow factor. It really does not take much DSP at all, but the end result is fabulous. Be sure to download your free project sheet with all the correct measurements. If you watch the video then you will know I was on the struggle bus with my measurements, but I promise, the project sheet is correct.

Let’s take a closer look:

Card # 1 Happy Birthday
Card # 2 with a slight variation

Weekly Wed. #81 Fun Fold Accordion Card

Designer Series Paper, Fun Fold Cards, Weekly Wednesday Videos /

Happy Wednesday. If you live in the Midwest, I do hope you are staying warm. It is really supposed to get cold this weekend. I may have to move my crafting space into my living room in front of the fire! LOL. Or maybe I will just sit in my lazy boy and enjoy a glass of Chardonnay. But for now, I am excited to share with you a fun fold accordion card that I created using a 5 1/4 x 12 piece of designer series paper.

This card will look great with whatever patterned paper you have on hand, but if you want to purchase the True Blue Florals paper pack, it is the product of the month from December, so supplies are limited. Just place a $75 order through my online store and you can choose the True Blue Floral paper pack or the January 2026 product of the month, Fabulous Sayings. Both are featured in our card today.

TRUE BLUE FLORALS-DECEMBER 2025 PRODUCT OF THE MONTH
FABULOUS SAYINGS-JANUARY 2026 PRODUCT OF THE MONTH

#80 Weekly Wednesday ~ Quilt Patchwork Cards

2 Comments / Christmas 2025, Designer Series Paper, Happy Birthday, Stamping Techniques /

I was not sure what to call these cards, but it sure was fun creating them. This super simple template will be just the thing to use up your leftover scraps of designer series paper. And if you don’t have scraps, well I am not sure how that would happen, but in case you don’t just cut a strip of dsp that measures 1-1/4 x 12 and cut according to the template in the video.

Here is a closer look at the cards!

I hope you have as much fun creating these cards as I did. Once I created the template I was having so much fun with my different scraps. You could also try making your own DSP pattern paper and maybe even emboss some solid cardstock squares for an added dimension. I can see that the possibilities are endless. I think I might have to give that a try a my next stamp camp. Happy Stamping!
