I promised a picture tutorial for making a Dahlia Fold flower and today’s the day! Making these flowers is very addictive and so much fun. I will say that at first, I got a little frustrated folding the tiny pieces but with practice it has turned from frustrating to fun. Practicing with larger circles is the key to getting the technique down.
You can also watch a step by step video for making these flowers by clicking here!
Tomorrow my email subscribers will be receiving a PDF version of the directions for making the flower and the directions for today’s card. If you haven’t signed up yet be sure to do it today so you won’t miss out. You can find the sign up form on the sidebar of my blog where it says “Keep in Touch.” (more…)

It’s Friday! I hope you have plans for the weekend that involve play and/or relaxation!
Today’s card uses two designs from the Floral Romance Designer Series Paper and an embossed piece of Pear Pizzazz cardstock. I have to admit that combining two different pieces of Designer Series Paper is out of my comfort zone but I’m pretty happy with how these two printed designs look together. (more…)
Today is a two card day! This week I’ve been showcasing Stampin’ Up! Floral Romance Designer Series Paper. When I created both of today’s cards last weekend, I had no idea that the Wonderful Floral Framelits Dies, used to create the leaves, would be sold out before I could share them. If you were unable to purchase the dies, another option for creating leaves is our Sprig Punch or the Frosted Bouquet Framelits Dies. (more…)
Unfortunately several Big Shot Framelits Dies have sold out or are nearing sold out status.
The following dies have SOLD OUT:

Happy Tuesday!
I mentioned yesterday that once I start making Dahlia Fold cards, I can’t stop so I have one more to share with you. Today’s card is actually the same paper I used yesterday but I folded it the opposite way for a completely different look (you can see yesterday’s card here). (more…)
Once I start making Dahlia Fold flowers, I can’t stop! This one was created using Happiness Bloom Designer Series Paper. When choosing a paper to use, I look for two compatible designs because you’ll see both sides of the paper.
I used a 1-3/4″ Circle Punch to punch out 8 circles. You can watch my video here (it’s also at the end of this post) to see how to fold each circle. I use retired paper in the video but you’ll see that it’s pretty easy to fold the paper and create one gorgeous flower! After folding each piece, I glued them to a 2″ circle (I used a 2″ Circle Punch). (more…)
