Hi and welcome to my blog. Today I'm sharing the fourth card (out of 4) that I made for a  Fun Folds Class  way back in July.  The card fold is called a  Pop-Out Panel Card  and is just the right size to showcase those cut apart scenes in the 6x6 paper collections from Paper Rose Studio. The pop-out section features a cute butterfly and mini scene embossed die-cuts from the Poppy Garden Collection  which are mounted onto a red label die-cut made with the Nesting Label 2 Metal Cutting Die . I've added some extra paper panels to the middle sections of the card as well as to the sides of the pop-out mechanism.

Hi and welcome to my blog. Today I'm sharing the third card (out of 4) that I made for a Fun Folds Class  way back in July.  The card fold is called a  Pop-Up Gatefold  and this size is great for showing off those 6x6 papers you have in your stash. I have written instructions for this project which is part of a Tutorial Bundle. Just use the contact form on my blog to request a copy. Back I chose some beautiful scenic papers from the Poppy Garden Collection for the background and the pop-up section is full of beautiful poppy embossed die-cuts behind the picket fence. You can find a video tutorial for this type of card fold here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vZvR0nGCxB8&list=PLNMGY_H7Glc8EpaH2qJKRR7i3u9s8xPO4&index=1 It's the same fold that I used for my Stamptember Project -  https://bronwyneastleydesigns.blogspot.com/2025/09/thankful-florals-stamptember-collab.html Featured Products Shop for Products at Paper Rose Studio -  https://paperrose.co...

Hi and welcome to the October 2025 Funky Folds Blog Hop. Tonight I'm sharing a Gatefold Double Box Card featuring products from the Poppy Garden Collection from Paper Rose Studio . The Funky Folds group consists of like minded paper crafters who love to make projects with fun folds. Funky actually means "modern and stylish in an unconventional or striking way"... so we are featuring cards that are not your usual rectangle/square portrait or landscape style. 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!   If you love to make cards, journals, albums etc. with creative folds and would like to  participate  in our monthly  Funky Folds Blog Hop , you are welcome to join up through our community group on  Facebook  -  facebook.com/groups/funkyfoldsbloghop...

Hi and welcome to my blog. I'm back with my first Design Team Project for the month of August; a mini version of a Tags & Envelopes Folio. I chose to feature the gorgeous papers and embossed die-cuts from the Poppy Garden Collection from Paper Rose Studio , along with the very versatile  Stitched Tags Metal Cutting Dies .  I learned how to make the larger folio in a class taken by my lovely friend Lynne at LJ’s Crafty Corner , so I adapted the  design to use with 6x6 papers. Smaller envelopes were used in this project - a notecard and a standard card size (C6). The folio design consists of a small tag for the front cover, a larger tag for the back cover and the two different sized envelopes for the middle pages, joined together with an inside hinge and sewn together with a pamphlet stitch using wax thread. Let's take a look at all the pages - Isn't this collection gorgeous!! Poppies, birds, butterflies, scenic landscapes, vintage background papers ... a truly beautifu...
