Happy Sunday, y’all! Hope you’re having a good weekend! We got some rain yesterday – cuz of course. Since Wayne has my truck in…pieces is harsh. Not-quite-all-together? Like… if I need to go anywhere I have to take the BIG truck. Which isn’t my fave. And once it started raining – he sorta had to shut it all down for a bit. Hopefully it’ll be done by this evening!
So – for today’s card – I have a super cool (and really pretty easy, trust me!) fun fold that I shamelessly stole from my clever teammie Tara Carpenter! I changed mine up a little – it’s perfect for Christmas if you like – but…it’d also be great to just let someone know you’re thinking about them! It features a gorgeous die cut snowflake from the new Snowy Delights bundle – and pretty Peaceful Garden paper (both from the new Sep-Dec 2025 Mini). Take a look-see:
I know! Winter on a card!
I started with a 5 1/2″ x 10″ piece of Secret Sea cardstock – the card base – that I scored at 1 3/4″, 3 3/8″, 6 5/8″ and 8 1/4″. Then I folded it – pretty much like a gate card: Valley – Mountain – Mountain – Valley.
Using Liquid Glue, I adhered five pieces of Peaceful Garden DSP on five Basic White mats – and then adhered three of them to the three inside panels of the card base. The two end panels stay open for a minute. 🙂
I went ahead and made the back – stamping a Snowy Delights sentiment in Secret Sea on a Basic White panel. I stamped the sweet little snowflake image from the set in stamped-off-once Secret Sea – and added a clear Faceted Snowflake. Then I adhered it to the back of the card base with Liquid Glue.
To make the bay window strips, I cut two 1″ x 10″ pieces of Secret Sea and scored them both at 1 3/4″, 3 3/8″, 6 5/8″ and 8 1/4″. Then I folded them – it’s still a gate fold – but…opposite.
I matted pieces of Peaceful Garden DSP to Basic White cardstock mats and adhered them to the middle three sections of each of the two bay window strips.
Using Liquid Glue – I adhered the two strips to the card base – one at the top – and one at the bottom. I adhered the end panels of the strips to the end panels of the card base – aligning the sides and top (or bottom) of the cardstock.
Using Liquid Glue – I adhered the remaining matted pieces of Peaceful Garden DSP to the first and last panel of the card base.
For the pretty floating snowflake – I used Tear & Tape Adhesive to adhere a 3/4″ x 5 3/8″ strip of Window Sheet to the BACK of the two middle sections of the bay window strips.
Using the dies in the Snowy Delights die set, I cut out a large solid snowflake from Window Sheet and two detailed snowflakes from Peaceful Garden Glimmer paper – the larger in blue and the smaller in silver.
I used Liquid Glue to adhere the two Glimmer Paper snowflakes together and then to the solid Window Sheet die cut snowflake.
I tied a bow from two lengths of new white Baker’s Twine (from the Black & White & Gold Baker’s Twine) – and adhered it with a Glue Dot.
I stamped a Snowy Delights sentiment in Secret Sea on a piece of Peaceful Garden DSP and cut it out with the oval die from the Snowy Delights die set. Then I adhered it over the bow with double-stacked Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I added a clear Faceted Snowflake to the sentiment.
I adhered the snowflake to the Window Sheet strip with Stampin’ Dimensionals – centering it on the card base – and the card was done!
My Basic White Medium Envelope got the Snowy Delights snowflakes in stamped-off-once Secret Sea on the front…
…and more of the Peaceful Garden DSP on the envelope flap.
Et Voila! Yeah – it’s a seriously cool fun fold, y’all! I very much hope you’ll give one a try! I love the new Snowy Delights bundle – it’s got the stamp set – the dies – and it’s ALSO got five fun masks to make snowflakes of all kinds! The Peaceful Garden DSP – and coordinating Peaceful Garden Glimmer Paper are just gorgeous – so many pretty blue – and beige – and Crumb Cake – designs to use for your wintery projects!
I hope you like!

Sometimes I forget that…she’s a blonde.
All the way to her eyelashes.
And then I’m brushing her face and…I see them! And I remember that she’s blonde ALL the way thru!
Y’all blondes don’t be offended – I’m blonde enough to be allowed to say that! ;

Cady may be a goof, but she’s a pretty goof! ❤️
Yep – she’s a pretty goofus, that’s for sure! Thanks so much, Pat! 🙂
But, she’s so pretty, maybe she just wants attention? Not that she doesn’t get it. Thank you so much for sharing the directions for this beautiful card.
She DOES like her primping and loving time each day!! And yes – she’s awfully pretty! Thanks – glad you liked the card! 🙂
Beautiful card!
