NO DIES Easter POP UP DIAMOND Fancy Fold Card #polkadoodles

Happy Tuesday!
I hope you have a fantastic day!
Today, I have a super cool fancy fold card for you.
In my tutorial, I show you step by step how to make Pop Up Diamond Card with no cutting dies. 

I decorated it with the most colourful and cheerful design papers from 'Spring in Easter' set 2 and set 3. I love all the designs and patterns in this digital paper collection. If you haven't seen it yet, check them out, you won't be disappointed. To embellish the card, I used the cutest Easter digi stamp ever called 'Chicks in a Basket' and I coloured in the image using my alcohol markers. To finish off the card, I used the sentiment from 'Spring into Easter messages', this collection has all the Easter sentiments you need for all your projects. 

What is your favourite colour combo for Easter cards?

Happy crafting!

NO DIES Inter Lock Double Concertina Card / Creative Stamping 120 / Frida Kahlo

Happy Thursday!
I hope you have a fantastic day!

Today, I have super fun fancy fold card called Inter Lock Double Concertina Card using a free gift from Creative Stamping Magazine issue 120. I absolutely love the 'Frida Kahlo' stamp set and I decided to challenge myself and try something new. Firstly, I wanted to create something artistic, Frida was a surrealist and my favourite art style is Impressionism so I tried to mix them together in this project. I used acrylic paints to create the backgrounds and some gold heat embossing to add extra sparkle.

What's your favourite fancy fold card style?

Happy crafting!

How to Make GATEFOLD EXPLOSION CARD Super Easy #ffcchallenge2023 #polkadoodles

Happy Monday!
I hope you have a fantastic day!

It's Monika with a super cool birthday card. I like to experiment with fancy folds and I decided to use the best collection ever! 'The Darling Buds' to create this card. 
My friend's birthday is at the very beginning of Spring so I used 'The Daffodil' digi stamp and I coloured it in with my alcohol markers. I simply could not resist and I used the design papers from the 'Lavender Tea' collection (also one of my favourites!). If you like fancy folds and gatefold cards, this project is for you. What's your favourite Spring colour combo?

This card is also a part of #ffcchallenge2023 hosted by PaperMona and every single card there is a different fancy fold style. 

Happy crafting!
