FUNN Museum of Cards Zoyfold Card

| ullycatdesigns

This card was made for Craft Roulette #264 whose parameters included a card for an influencer, dreamy colors, crafts/crafters, and off center.

Watch the process video to see how I made this card.



Cardbase: Cut an 8.5×11-inch piece of heavy white cardstock into two pieces that at 4.25×11-inches. Score and fold in half at 5.5-inches both pieces. On one piece score and fold at 2.75-inches. Glue the two cards together with the large rectangle panels overlapping as shown in the video.
Cards: Because this card is going to Mary Gunn, I used images from her Craft Roulette Community Showcase gallery, picking cards that are iconic to the show. I tried to recreate some of the fun folds and bookmark cards.


Guide Sheet to Cards: This sheet is folded and tucked in a pocket on the back of the card.

Here For You – A Card of Comfort

| ullycatdesigns

This card was made using stamps, stencils and dies from the February 2025 Scrapbook and Cards With Love event. I made it before the event based off a design by DannaJoy.

Cardbase:  Cut a 4.25×11-inch rectangle from white cardstock. Fold to make a top-fold A2 (4.25×5.5-inch) card base. Cut a 4.25×5.5-inch rectangle of white cardstock and emboss it using the brick stencil.

(Use the embossing sandwich for a die as recommended for your die cutting machine.) Then glue the brick panel to the front of card.

Letters:  Cut four of the Letter A die from four different colors. Ink blend the edges and stamp on postage stamps and cancellation marks. Stamp on sentiments to three envelopes. Cut one of the string bow piece and place two envelopes behind it making string look like it is wrapped around the bundle. Arrange and then glue onto front of card. rub some water-based blue ink on a palette and wet with water. Pick up diluted ink on a small brush tip and splatter across card.

Sentiments:  Stamp on the inside “big hugs” in black and “made with love” on the card. “Smiles” with a heart is stamped in blue on the back envelope flap.
