PERFECT POMEGRANATE

July 26, 2022

When I saw this stamp set I thought, why in the world would I want to make a card with pomegranates on it? I mean I like to eat them but who would I send a card with pomegranates on it and what is that saying? So I passed it over and thought that is one I don't want. However, this set is FREE with a $300 order during July & August Sale-a-bration.

I placed an order for over $300 and guess what came in my order! Perfect Pomegranate. So I decided I would start playing with it and now I am in love with it. Has that ever happened to you?

Today I am going to show you a new fun fold card using the Perfect Pomegranate Free stamp set and of course my favorite greetings "Go To Greetings"

Framed Violets Fun Fold

By Debbie Chronister • June 17, 2026

This elegant fun fold card showcases the beautiful Framed Violets Bundle paired with the gorgeous 2026–2028 In Color Painted Patterns Designer Series Paper . The soft striped pattern provides the perfect backdrop for the delicate violet image, which was colored using Peaceful Pine and accented with a touch of shimmer from the Barley Blush Shimmer Brush for a subtle, luminous finish. The layered focal panel adds dimension and interest, while the sweet 2026–2028 In Color Butterflies bring a whimsical touch as they flutter around the floral image. A soft Barley Blush Ribbon bow completes the design, adding texture and elegance. This fun fold card is a wonderful way to showcase these beautiful new In Colors while creating a card that is sure to delight the recipient.

SAFARI SMILES DOUBLE Z FOLD

By Debbie Chronister • June 3, 2026

This adorable Double Z Fold card features the charming Safari Smiles Bundle and is full of fun details and dimension. To create the ground scene, I incorporated the tree image from the Twisted In Time Bundle, adding the perfect touch of whimsy to the design. The soft cloudy sky was created using a homemade cloud template made from a retired Cloud Punch and lightly blended with Cloud Cover ink using a Blending Brush. The sweet elephants were colored with the Light Smokey Slate Stampin' Blend, giving them a soft and realistic appearance. Cloud Cover cardstock was the perfect choice for the card base, tying all the elements together beautifully. Be sure to download the FREE Project Sheet below for complete measurements, supplies, and step-by-step instructions to create this fun fold card yourself!

Balloon Festoon Double Z Fold Card

By Debbie Chronister • May 27, 2026

I created this fun and interactive Z Double fold card using the beautiful Balloon Festoon Bundle paired with soft Pool Party cardstock and the lovely Beautiful Ordinary Life Designer Series Paper for a fresh and cheerful look. The Z fold design adds movement and dimension, making the card extra special when displayed. I loved combining the festive balloon images with the soft patterns from the designer paper to create a playful celebration theme with lots of layered detail. The Pool Party color palette gave the project a light, airy feel while allowing the balloons, patterned paper, and embellishments to really stand out. This card was such a fun way to showcase both the unique fold and the versatility of the bundle and designer series paper together. The entire PDF Instructions for 18 alternate cards using the Pretty Party kit is available for purchase in my store along with other Tutorials & Kits.

Pretty Party meets Balloon Festoon

By Debbie Chronister • May 27, 2026

I had so much fun creating this cheerful card using the newly released Stampin' Up! Pretty Party Kit from May along with the beautiful Balloon Festoon Bundle . The soft colors and playful patterns from the kit paired perfectly with the festive balloon images and dies, making this card feel bright and full of celebration. I layered the elements to add dimension and finished it off with a few special embellishments for extra sparkle and texture. This combination made it easy to create a fun, happy card that would be perfect for birthdays, celebrations, or simply sending a little joy to someone special. This kit is beautiful as it is but if you like a challenge and to do different things with the kits, you can purchase the tutorial for all 18 alternate cards on in my store.

Z Fold Pop Up Card

By Debbie Chronister • May 13, 2026

This elegant pop up Z fold card combines the timeless beauty of Basic White with soft layers of Crisp Cantaloupe for a fresh and inviting design. Many of our favorite card layouts begin with some form of a Z fold, and this fun interactive style is always a showstopper. I used the beautiful Fragrant Layers Bundle from Stampin' Up! along with the gorgeous Bloom Boutique Designer Series Paper to create soft floral layers and elegant detail throughout the card. The flowers were accented with the sparkling 2026–2028 In Color Dots for the centers, while the adorable 2026–2028 In Color Butterflies add the perfect finishing touch. A delicate bow tied with Crisp Cantaloupe Bordered Ribbon completes this charming project with just the right amount of texture and sweetness.
