Hello! I hope you are well.
Way back in November 2022 I was lucky enough to attend Stampin’ Up!’s OnStage event in Vienna with lots of other lovely independent demonstrators from around the world. I came back with SO many amazing swaps that are still inspiring me today. One of them was a fun fold card with a bookmark in a little pocket, created by Laur’ En Scrap. Today I’ve made my version to share with you…
I used the gorgeous new Bubble Bath card along with the Bright & Beautiful 6″ X 6″ designer series paper and the Beautiful Balloons stamp set and coordinating dies.
I recorded a video to show you the inspirational swap I received and my pink version and then creating another one with Lemon Lolly card and paper, combined with Lost Lagoon ink too. I’d love you to check it out by clicking on the image below…
Or you can CLICK HERE to pop over and watch it on YouTube. You can then comment and give me a thumbs up there too, if you’d like!
Here are some more photos of my pink version and the yellow one I made in the video…
In the video I showed you a couple of other Circle Sayings combinations that you could use for this style of card too…
