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.

Valley In Bloom DSP

By Debbie Chronister • May 6, 2026

I created this card using one of the more challenging patterns from the Valley In Bloom Designer Series Paper, and I love how it pushed me to think a little more creatively with my design. The detailed background really makes a statement, so I paired it with a simple, elegant greeting from the Scalloped Blooms stamp set to keep the focus balanced. To add a bit of texture and shine, I included Dew Drops embellishments, which catch the light beautifully. The finishing touch is a Mossy Meadow and gold bow, bringing in a rich, coordinated look that ties everything together perfectly while adding just the right amount of sophistication.

By Debbie Chronister • April 22, 2026

This beautiful fun fold card was created using the Waterside Retreat April 2026 Paper Pumpkin kit from Stampin’ Up!, featuring the soft, calming tones of Gray Granite for an elegant and serene look. The unique fold adds an extra touch of interest, allowing the peaceful waterside imagery to shine from every angle while creating a delightful surprise when opened. The layered elements and coordinating designs from the kit make it easy to craft a card that feels both sophisticated and heartfelt, perfect for a variety of occasions. Be sure to check out the Free Project Sheet for step-by-step instructions so you can recreate this lovely design with ease!
