PUZZLE SLIDER FUN FOLD CARD + VIDEO!

Jenny Hayward

Have you seen the Puzzle Slider Fun Fold Cards? I saw them recently and just had to create one myself. The one I saw was created by Sue Stampfield.

I couldn’t find one in Metric measurements so I worked in inches. I adjusted those measurements and then worked out the Metric for my lovely crafters who prefer centimetres.

I put together a video for you. I used the Florals in Blooms Paper but you can use whatever you have. It’s a cool card. Even if you don’t like to do puzzles I think you will like to create one of these.

Here is the Video for you. The card is shown further below.

This is the card I had created earlier.

Don’t forget the inside.

Follow along with the video.

The Written Tutorial will be sent out for my Newsletter Subscribers next week. Are you a subscriber? I send out a project Tutorial each week. You can head to the Side Bar on my blog and click on the tab.

Happy Creating a Puzzle Slider Card,

Jenny

FOLD FLAT CARD FOR THIS WEEK’S VIDEO ~

Jenny Hayward

It’s a Fold Flat Card for this week’s video. It’s an easy one to create. I have used the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Butterflies but you can decorate it as you like.

This is the card.

It can fold flat to post out. It will be a little bulky so check your postage.

You could even add a little chocolate or simlar in to the box part at the front when you give it directly to someone.

Don’t forget the inside.

You can watch along with the video below. If this doesn’t show in the post head to my Youtube channel.

See how you can decorate it if you don’t have the Beautiful Butterflies.

CREATE A WINDOW FLAP FOLD CARD + A VIDEO!

Jenny Hayward

This week’s video is a Window Flap Fold Card. It gives a little surprise when you start opening the card.

This is the card when it is closed up.

I used the Florals in Bloom Designer Series Paper. It has such lovely colours and prints in the pack. The flowers are from the Pretty Florals Bundle. These are new in the 2025 Annual Catalogue just out this week.

When you open the card…

The sentiment is from the Loveliest Tree Stamp Set. For the window you can use any shape but I think circles do work best.

This is the inside.

I’m going to show you how easy it is to make one yourself. So follow along in the video.

You can follow along with the video HERE or on Youtube. I share the measurements in Metric and Imperial.

If you would like the written Tutorial I send this out in my Newsletter the following week after this is published.

Some time ago I shared a video of 5 Ways with the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Butterflies Bundle. It has been extremely popular. BUT I realised I hadn’t actually shown you the card created in the video.

So here it is. I made the Balmy Blue version in the video but had the Fresh Freesia one made. Which colour do you like?

This is the inside.

You can see the measurements to create this version in the video.

MINI BEAUTIFUL BUTTERFLIES CARD!

Jenny Hayward

I have been sharing a lot with the Beautiful Butterflies Bundle. It is a gorgeous one. You might have caught the 5 Ways with the Beautiful Butterflies Video I posted just recently. You can find this in a previous post on my blog or now on Youtube. But I will also have the link below if you missed it.

This is one of the cards I created. It is a Mini Beautiful Butterflies folded card in Fresh Freesia.

MAKE IT YOURSELF:

To create this place your die on the fold line of your card base with the little score marks on the die lining up on the fold. Diecut it out. You will have a fold card. If you want some pretty paper on the butterfly adhere your paper to the front of the card first. I used the Beautiful Bokeh paper for this one.

I added a detailed diecut body in white on the front of the card.

If you missed the tip on how to cut the black body then be sure to check on my page or on the video -> HERE.

If you have the Beautiful Butterflies I hope you get to make one similar. Have a play with it. It’s lots of fun.

This is the Beautiful Butterflies Bundle. You can see it more in my store -> HERE.

TRY THE FAUX WATERCOLOUR TECHNIQUE WITH THE VIDEO~

Jenny Hayward

I came across the Faux Watercolour Technique recently. I was intrigued and had to try it. I thought you might like it too so I put together a video. You can follow along and give it a try.

As you watch you might see it is a bit like the Smooshing Technique. But there are some differences.

Here is the video.

Here is the card I created.

The Thankful Garden Bundle includes Stamps, Dies and Masks and is an Online Exclusives.

If you have missed it you can see it online -> HERE.

I have also used the Soft Waves 3D Embossing Folder which adds a nice, curvy texture. Also, using the Arched Dies for the sentiment adds a different element.

Hope you like it and get to try the technique yourself.

Happy Crafting,

Jenny

WEEK 12 – 12 WEEKS OF CHRISTMAS WITH A SPECIAL TREAT BAG!

Jenny Hayward

We have arrived to our last week for our 12 Weeks of Christmas Series. Our Week 12 project is a quick and easy Treat Bag.

For this one I have used the Green and Gold Specialty Designer Series Paper.

Here’s a close-up of the tag.

A tag was diecut from White card but also from the Graceful Greenery Vellum. I used the Greetings of the Season stamps and dies. Add a stamped leaf from the Golden Greenery stamps and dies and then also diecut leaves. One from Shaded Spruce and the other from Soft Sea Foam card.

It’s nice to dress up some chocolates in a cute bag. All you need is a clear plastic or Cello bag and some pretty paper. I share some tips in how to create them in the video below.

I hope you have enjoyed the projects through our 12 Weeks of Christmas Series and that they have inspired you. Some would work for any occasion so file them away for upcoming ideas.

Happy Christmas Crafting,

Jenny

Week 10 of our 12 Weeks of Christmas Series. This week’s card uses a fun technique to add extra detail. It’s the Partial Inked, Embossed Technique.

This is the card.

I have used the Distressed Tile Embossing Folder. The technique is inking part of the Embossing Folder and embossing the card. You can follow along in the video below.

The paper strip is from the A little Bit Festive Specialty Designer Series Paper. The Holly is from the Reindeer Fun Dies and the sentiment from the Reindeer Fun Stamp Set.

OFF-SET GATEFOLD CARD FOR WEEK 5 – 12 WEEKS OF CHRISTMAS!

Jenny Hayward

Week 5 of our 12 Weeks of Christmas series. This week it is an Off-Set Gatefold card. It’s just a little different to the regular Gatefold Cards.

For this card I have used the Nests of Winter Designer Series Paper. It’s so easy to cut one of the sweet birds from the paper to add to the front of your card. One of the Dies from the Winterly Tree Tops Dies is meant to diecut one of the birds but you can fussy-cut them out too.

Create this how you like to and it can be great for any occasion. Once you have the scoring worked out it’s very easy to create. You can follow along in the video.

The pretty diecut circle was cut with the Spotlight on Nature Dies. I do love this die set with the pretty edges. There are 3 different die edges in the set. See them more -> HERE.

The written tutorial will be sent out in next week’s newsletter. If you would like to receive them the link details are in the right hand side column.

This is the card created and you can see the inside.

Have fun creating one. And share it with me if you like to. I love to see other versions.

Happy Crafting,

Jenny
