Polkadoodles Crafts | By The Sea | Easel Card

Published on by Vicky Wright2 Comments

G’Day Crafty Friends,

I’m a little excited to share my very first card as a Guest Designer for Polkadoodles Crafts.

This week’s challenge is an Easel Card with a By the Sea Theme.

This is Digi Choosday over at the blog – don’t you just love that name – which runs each Tuesday, so there’s always something new to spark your creativity.  I’d absolutely love for you to join in.

For my project, I created an easel card, which is such a fun interactive design.  It stands beautifully for display and gives you that extra wow factor when giving or posting to someone special.  I took my inspiration from the papers as they reminded me of the mermaid’s tail.  Check out the lovely soft colours of purples & blues!

Best of Luck | A Fun Fold Card | Words of Wisdom Collection

Published on by Vicky WrightLeave a comment

G’Day Crafty Friends,

There’s something quietly powerful about sending someone a handmade card.  And when that card is filled with soft textures, delicate embossed flowers and thoughtful folds, it becomes more than paper – it becomes a keepsake.

Today’s inspiration is a fun fold card created with the lovely Words of Wisdom Collection by Paper Rose Studio, designed to surprise and delight from the very first touch.

The Beauty of Embossing

The coordinating Embossed Die Cuts – Floral & Inspiration packs brings the card to life in a way ink alone cannot.  Run your fingers across the surface and you’ll feel it.

For this project I used –

To make it even easier for you to recreate this card, I’ve put together a step-by-step PDF tutorial with measurements and instructions.  Perfect if you like having something to print or save for later on!

Final Thought

A handmade card is more than a project – it’s a gesture of connection.  In a world that moves quickly, it invites someone to slow down, open and feel appreciated.

So fold the paper, emboss the flowers and send your wishes out into the world.
Because sometimes, a small card can carry a very big message.

Until next time – stay inspired & keep creating!

G’Day Crafty Friends,

Today I’m sharing a brand new Paper Rose Studio Design Team project featuring 2 beautiful easy fun Front Pocket fold cards using the Words of Wisdom Collection.  If you love soft florals and meaningful sentiments, these are for you!

As I wanted to keep things light, elegant and encouraging. The Collection has the most gorgeous floral patterns paired with uplifting sentiments, making it perfect for cards that brighten someone’s day.

This design may look hard but is so simple to create. It’s perfect for beginners or when you want something a little different without complicated steps.

There is a pocket in the front of the card that you are able to slot in a Gift Card or as I’ve done, a small card.  I also decided to turn the base card into a proper full base card.

For this project I used –

You can easily switch up the papers and sentiments to suit birthdays, thank you cards or any occasion for that matter!

PDF Tutorial

To make it even easier for you to recreate this card, I’ve put together a step-by-step PDF tutorial with measurements and instructions.  Perfect if you like having something to print or save for later on!

Until next time – stay inspired & keep creating!

G’Day Crafty Friends,

Today I’m excited to share my latest Design Team project for Paper Rose Studio featuring a beautiful card created with the Words of Wisdom Collection.  This project combines soft florals, encouraging sentiments and a simple fun fold design that’s both eye-catching and easy to recreate.  There is even a PDF Tutorial below for you to download.

The Fun Fold Design

One of my favourite things about this card is the easy fun pop-out fold.  It adds a little “wow” factor without being complicated.  When the card opens, the layered panels reveal more of the floral design and sentiment, creating a lovely interactive element.

Fun fold cards are great because –

  • They look impressive
  • They use basic cardmaking supplies
  • They’re beginner-friendly

Why I Love This Fold
