Three Fun Fold Cards made with the Nesting Arches Metal Cutting Die

Hi and welcome to my blog. Today I'm sharing my latest design team project for Paper Rose Studio. I was asked to make a Fancy Fold Card using any Nesting Dies of my choice. It wasn't easy to decide which Nesting Dies to use as I have a few sets and so many ideas were floating around in my head!

Once I'd settled on featuring the Nesting Arches Metal Cutting Dies (so trendy right now), I decided on three fancy fold card ideas and to incorporate the Mosaic Sunflower Die into each design. The 6x6 papers from the Sketchy Collection provided a lovely botanical background for each card.

1. Honeycomb Pop-Out Card

The Honeycomb Pop-Out Card has an aperture cut into the pop-out section and the Mosaic Sunflower die-cut is glued to an acetate arch which is attached to the front stabiliser piece.



2. Box Card

The box card is constructed from four large arch die-cuts and joined together with hinges. Three of the sides are scored and folded to form the outer, decorative flaps.


3. Easel Card

The easel card base is cut from the Stitched Rectangle Dies and the easel part is constructed with the largest and second largest Nesting Arches Dies.


All cards feature the Mosaic Sunflowers, foliage and dragonflies with tiny butterflies added to the box card (see featured products below).

Hi and welcome to the November 2025 Funky Folds Blog Hop . Tonight I'm sharing an Extended Z-Fold Card with a Planter Box. This is my Spring version of this fancy fold featuring the gorgeous Arabella's Garden 6x6 papers.  The Funky Folds group consists of like minded paper crafters who love to make projects with fun folds.

Think 'easel', 'pop-up', 'gatefold', 'z-fold', 'shaped' or 3D cards etc. The list is endless ... and it also includes journals, albums etc. All Blog Hops have an 'anything goes' theme using any type of 'funky' fold!

Christmas Tree Farm 'Honeycomb' Pop-Out Cards

Welcome to my blog; I'm super excited to share my latest Design Team project for Paper Rose Studio.  I've made a couple of Honeycomb Pop-Out Cards  (original design by Susan Campfield) and have adapted the measurements for a 6x6 card base. They feature the gorgeous papers and embossed die-cuts from the Christmas Tree Farm Collection . Card Number 1 - Window Decorations The window scene wasn't central on the paper so I adjusted the order of the panels to suit this type of card fold then added a Christmas Tree Embossed Die-Cut to the stabiliser piece. The sentiment is from the pack of 'First Christmas' die-cuts and I added the poinsettia, bells and holly for some extra embellishment. There's plenty of room on the back of the card to write a greeting and the side panels have been embellished with some festive paper and an embossed die-cut. Card Number 2 - On the Farm For the second card I decided to add a 'stabiliser' piece to the top as well as the bottom...

Hi and welcome to my blog. This month we celebrated a special birthday in the Eastley family. My brother-in-law turned 80 and I made a card with papers from the Lakeside Memories Collection . This type of card fold is called a Honeycomb Pop-Out Card  which I found on Susan Campfield's channel (link below).  I made this Lakeside Memories Card to the US greeting card size (A2) - 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" as demonstrated in the video.  Spoiler alert ... next month I'll be sharing some larger Honeycomb Pop-Out Cards that I have modified to showcase 6x6 papers.
