This was originally made by Sam Calcott but Carys Creative Table did a smaller version which are the directions I followed here. Both on YouTube if you decide to make one. I pulled out and old Cuttlebug embossing folder and used an MFT die to make the wavy line. The seagulls are from Stampin Up. Fun card to make! This is my second one, the first I used the same stamps as she did and posted it a little bit ago.

5 x 7 Expanding Z-Fold Card
Saw this on Iced Images YouTube, it is modified from Simply Simple Stamping she said. I made the hummingbird card from that and then when I saw this version I thought it would be perfect for my in-laws anniversary card. I don’t have to mail it so it can be bigger and thicker! Used the Framed Violets and paper from Stampin Up. Printed the sentiments.

Side Pillar Pop Up Card
This is the card I made for the August swap for creative cards with Trish. I love the berry burst color with the Moonlit Flora DSP.

Double Z Fold Card
This is a pretty standard Z Fold, I used some DSP from last year that I had leftover. Pretty set of papers and I found that Just Jade card stock worked really well with it. I have some that I never used, retired In Color. I try to use all of my supplies! The hummingbirds are from The Stamps of Life. I have kept this set for years, they are just right.

Offset Gallery Card
This was Creative Gems Friday night (Saturday morning for her in Australia) card this week. I have been looking for a style of card that would be able to highlight this beautiful moth in the Moonlit Flora, designer series paper pack. I also use soft sea foam card stock to bring out the moth even more. Such a quick and easy card to make and it’s so stunning!

Bendy Fun Fold Card
Another fun card from Creative Gems. I made this for my sweet card making friend in TX - I tried to keep it as thin as I could because the post office is charging huge rates for thicker cards. Its a challenge with these fun folds! No pieces on dimensionals or jewels this time.

Triple Tiered Wiper Card
So I saw this being made by Sam Calcott, she has made them in 3 different sizes so far but none A2. I saw someone post their card and they followed the directions from Carys Creative Table. Hers is I believe is A6 but thats close enough for me. This is what I made. Someone requested a birthday card for a 15 year old girl with some sad issues and was hoping cards would cheer her up. I used the Wild Bunch stamp set and Stampin Up DSP. It is a fun card! You pull the bottom piece to the right and the animals pop out to the left.
