A Fidget Spinner for Crafters: The Never-Ending Card

Monday I shared a Never-Ending (Infinity) Card, and let me tell you… this is one of those projects I had seen before but was always a little intimidated to try. Turns out? It’s way easier than it looks—especially thanks to a fantastic tutorial I found by Karey Titus.

A Valentine's Day themed card featuring red and pink colors, with designs including hearts, polka dots, and the text 'Happy' and 'Valentine's Day'.

A handmade Valentine's Day card featuring a pop-up design with the text 'Happy Valentine's Day' and decorative elements including hearts in shades of pink and red.

For my cards, I featured the Endless Love Stamps & Dies #167062 along with the Made with Love DSP #167054, and I wanted to share a few helpful tips I picked up while making them.

Tips for Making a Never-Ending Card

• Cardstock colors:
You can use two different colors of cardstock or stick with the same color. If you’re worried about keeping track of direction and orientation, I highly recommend using the same color—it makes things much less confusing.

• Practice the folds first:
Before decorating, assemble your base pieces and practice turning the card. This really helps you understand how the card moves and makes it easier to decide what should go on each panel. Keep in mind that if it’s not folding and laying out the way you want try flipping the card as it can change the direction of the fold and cuts.

• Sizing is flexible:
I made two different sizes—a 6″ × 6″ card and then used the leftover 5″ × 5″ pieces to create a smaller version. You can truly make this card in any size, as long as you start with a square.

• Scoring measurements:
You’ll score at ¼ of the measurement from each side.

For a 6″ × 6″ card, score at 1-1/2″ and 4-1/2″
For a 5″ × 5″ card, score at 1-1/4″ and 3-1/4″

This creates an inside panel that’s half the size of the full card (3″ for the 6″ × 6″ and 2-1/2″ for the 5″ × 5″ .)

A layout design with measurement lines and notes on white paper, detailing scoring and cutting instructions for a crafting project.

• Cutting & assembly:
You’ll need two sheets, both scored and then cut in half in opposite directions.
The trickiest part is placing the adhesive correctly so the card can turn smoothly.

I used Tear & Tape #154031 because it’s strong and easy to work with. Place it on the outside corners (top and bottom) of one sheet. Then take the second sheet, turn it 90 degrees, and attach it to those corners.

If you’re more of a visual learner, be sure to watch the video to see how it’s done—it makes the assembly so much easier to follow.

Decorating the Card

Now for the fun part—decorating!
Most of my panels were cut ¼” smaller than the base pieces. Be mindful of the direction each panel will turn. I laid everything out as I went so I could decide where each piece made the most sense.

I had so much fun making these that I decided to try a few more designs, including the smaller version I mentioned in my video. I stuck with the heart theme and added in:

Love Story Stamp Set #167065
Darling Dinos Stamp Set #164730 (Last Chance)
Sweet Jar Stamp Set #165501 (Last Chance)

These cards are so fun, easy, and interactive—and honestly, they’re a little like a fidget spinner for crafters. You just can’t help but keep flipping them! I hope I’ve inspired you to give a never-ending card a try! I’d love to see what you create—be sure to tag me or give me a shout-out when you share your project or drop it in the comments.

Cut, Shake & Share: Valentine Treat Ideas with Heart Gusseted Treat Bags

Last week on my live, I shared several fun ideas using the Heart Gusseted Treat Bags (#167073). I posted about the project I created during the live, but then realized I never shared the other projects—so today I’m fixing that!

A variety of decorated gift bags with heart designs, featuring messages like 'Hugs & Kisses' and 'I Adore You'. The bags are embellished with red and pink colors, and some contain chocolates and other small gifts.

These four additional projects all feature cutting a window into the treat bags using the Endless Love Dies (#167061), then using the die-cut heart from the bag on a coordinating project. It’s such a fun way to stretch your supplies and get multiple projects from one idea.

Helpful Tips Before You Cut

A handmade greeting card featuring three red heart cutouts with a transparent background, displaying colorful sequins inside, and the text 'Hugs & Kisses' on a pink ribbon.

Be sure to watch the video where I share tips on how to avoid cutting through the sides of the bag. For this technique, you’ll want to use the Mini Cutting Plates (#151004) and place one inside the bag, so you’re only cutting through a single layer.

If you’d like your bag to stand up like mine, score the bottom of the bag at 1/2″, then fold that section to the inside to create a flat base.

Project One – Large Heart Window Shaker

For my first project, I used the large heart die to cut a window in the bag. I then cut a smaller heart from Real Red cardstock and embossed it with the Hearts of Love 3D Embossing Folder (#167071).

To create the shaker:

I used a 3″ x 3″ Flip Flap (#166514)
Filled it with the Loose Valentines Assortment (#167074)
Attached it to the back of the embossed red heart
Then adhered everything to the inside of the bag behind the window

A handcrafted gift box featuring red and white hearts with an arrow design, embellished with an 'XO' motif and colorful ribbons, presented on a textured background.

A decorative Valentine's Day card featuring layered hearts, one red with a black outline, and the text 'XO' on a white heart background with small red hearts.

I finished the bag with additional die cuts and Real Red Baker’s Twine (#164051).

For the coordinating project, I used the heart cut from the treat bag along with extra die cuts and twine then attached them to an Iridescent Treat Bag (#166204)—quick, easy, and adorable.

Project Two – Filigree Hearts & Shimmery Window

For the second project, I cut the smaller hearts and layered them with the filigree heart dies.

A decorated packaging with red hearts and the text 'Hugs & Kisses' holding colorful candies, next to a chocolate bar wrapped in pink paper with a tag that says 'I Adore You'.

A decorative white bag with red hearts and the phrase 'Hugs & Kisses' printed on a pink ribbon.

To create a shimmery window:

I cut open an Iridescent Treat Bag (#166204)
Adhered it to the inside of the gusseted treat bag

For the greeting, I used the Three Banner Punch (#167050) for a quick and easy sentiment. The final touch was Bubble Bath 1/8″ Faux Linen Ribbon (#167075)—the perfect delicate accent.

Coordinating Candy Bar Treat

To coordinate, I layered one of the hearts cut from the treat bag onto additional die cuts. I embossed Bubble Bath cardstock, wrapped it around a candy bar, and added:

A strip of Real Red cardstock stamped with XO in black
A big, beautiful bow made from the Bubble Bath Faux Linen Ribbon

Quick, easy, and super cute!

A wrapped chocolate bar decorated with a pink and red heart-shaped tag that says 'I ADORE YOU', resting on a textured surface.

A wrapped chocolate bar with a pink embossed cover featuring small hearts, a red band displaying the word 'XOXO' in black, and a decorative ribbon.

Any of these projects would make a perfect Valentine treat for someone special, and they’re a great way to get even more value from your Heart Gusseted Treat Bags.

From Treat Bag to Box: My Favorite Heart Gusseted Treat Bag Project

Monday night on my live, I shared multiple projects using the Heart Gusseted Treat Bags (#167073), and I had so much fun playing with these bags and seeing just how many ideas I could come up with. 💕

My live video featured my favorite project.. This little box is relatively simple to make, and I love how versatile it is—plus, one bag makes TWO boxes, which is always a win!

A handmade greeting card featuring a heart design with 'Hugs & Kisses' text on a colorful background, alongside a blank card with a heart pattern and similar text.

A decorative card featuring a lace-like red heart design with multiple smaller hearts, embellished with a pink and white striped heart that says 'Hugs & Kisses'.

Box Instructions

Start with one Heart Gusseted Treat Bag:

Cut off the top folded portion of the bag.
- Measure 9-1/4″ up from the bottom and cut.
Trim the bottom so the bag measures 9″ total.
Cut the bag in half at 4-1/2″.
Score the bottom at 3/4″.
- Be sure to flip the piece so you get a good score on both sides.
Cut the corners on the bottom of each piece up to the 3/4″ score line.
- You should now have two red sections and two white sections.

A handmade greeting card featuring layered hearts, a decorative doily, and a mix of red and pink colors, with a white background adorned with small hearts.

Two green-topped bottles of adhesive glue stored in a decorative holder with a pink and red design, featuring hearts.

Box Base (for Support)

Cut a piece of chipboard to 4″ x 1-1/4″
- I used chipboard from my Paper Pumpkin kits.
Cover with Real Red cardstock, also 4″ x 1-1/4″.
Adhere to the bottom of the inside of the box for extra stability.

Decorating Details

A close-up view of a decorative Valentine's Day card featuring layered hearts in shades of pink and red, with a ribbon that reads 'Hugs & Kisses'. The background includes a lace-like doily pattern.

Decorate your box as desired! For my sample, I used:

Lovely Doilies #167104
Endless Love Stamp Set #167055
Endless Love Dies #167061
Bubble Bath Ribbon #167075
Real Red Baker’s Twine #164051

Colors: Real Red, White, & Bubble Bath

✨ Perfect Fit: This box fits our Note Cards (#159232) perfectly, making it ideal for a sweet Valentine note or gift enclosure.

The simple card design tucked inside the box was inspired by Heidi Collins, keeping the look clean, classic, and easy to recreate.

Two handmade greeting cards featuring red striped hearts and the phrase 'Hugs & Kisses'. One card has the text 'I adore you' repeated in the background.

A greeting card design featuring a large striped heart, the words 'I adore you' repeated in the background, and 'Hugs & Kisses' written prominently at the bottom.

✨ Bonus: This project is the perfect fit for this week’s Global Design Project challenge – Hearts #GDP531! 💖

Be sure to check out my video to see just how easy this project is to create, along with the other fun ideas I shared. I’ll be posting more details on the remaining projects later this week, so be sure to tune back in! 💕

Quick and Easy Treat Holders

Can you believe the month is already over? That means tomorrow May 1st is the last day to order retiring products. This is my last post featuring retiring products. I’ve also received my pre-order items so I thought I would share a variety of quick and easy treat holders that feature retiring product, new product and online exclusives.

I created these cute gift holders around Valentine’s for my open house. I also wanted to create a project that I could send to people that weren’t able to attend in person. Since it’s hard to send them stamps I decided to go with a project that was made with dies and punches. You’ll notice that both are similar; however, the punched one I punched the images directly from the designer series paper.

160390 – Country Floral Lane Suite Collection (R) (M)
160383 – Country BouQuet Bundle (R) (M)
160377 – Country Bouquet Stamp Set (C) (M)
160382 – Country Bouquet Punch (C) (M)
160386 – Real Red & Burlap Ribbon Combo Pack (C) (M)
160387 – Pastel Adhesive- Backed Sequins (C) (M)
160388 – Country Gingham 6×6 DSP (R) (M)
160375 – Country Floral Lane 12×12 DSP (R) (M)
158885 – Best Label Punch (C)

152698 – Love you More Than Dies (R)
Colors – Sweet Sorbet (C), Mint Macaron (R), Balmy Blue (C), Garden Green (C), Blushing Bride (R), Real Red (C), Basic White (C)

(R) Retiring, (C) Carrying Over, (M) Found in the Mini Catalog

Here’s a quick picture of the measurements so you can make your own treat holder.

First I need to give a quick shout out to Craft with Jayne as she shared the triangle treat holder and I just had to give it a try. These two projects feature the retiring country gingham DSP that I love along with the Flowers of Friendship stamp set and dies.

155358 – Flowers of Friendship Stamp Set (R)
155373 – Flowers & Leaves Punch (R)
160388 – Country Gingham 6×6 DSP (R) (M)
159183 – Stylish Shapes Dies (C)
152525 – Lovely You Stamp Set (R)
154289 – Opal Rounds (R)
155475 – Baker’s Twine Essentials Pack (C)
159200 – Sweet Sorbet 1/8″ Metallic Woven Ribbon (C)
158133 – Soft Succulent 1/2″ Satin Shimmer Ribbon (R)
154893 – Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends Combo Pack (C)
155521 – Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Combo Pack (C)
Colors – Petal Pink (C), Soft Succulent (R), Sweet Sorbet (C), Basic White (C), Basic Black (C)

(R) Retiring, (C) Carrying Over

Here are the measurements to create these easy gift holders. Remember that you are scoring not cutting to make this project. The measurement listed here are for the smaller treat box. If you watch my video below you can see the difference is size between the larger Rhino box and smaller Monkey box.

Now for a little bit of fun. I wanted to make a quick video so I could show you how easy these are to make, but I wanted to make it using new product so I had a little bit of fun with my pre-order. I will admit I did use one retiring product on these projects and that is the DSP for the Rhino project since I thought it worked so well with image. The Rhino’s are part of the online exclusive Rhino Ready Stamp Set and the large leaves are as well. The rest you will find in the new catalog and will be available to purchase on May 2, 2023.

Check out my video to see how fast and easy these projects are to make.

Love Cats Stamp Set

Today I thought I would jump over to a stamp set from the mini catalog that is retiring. Just a reminder that while some of the items in the mini catalog will be carrying over many are retiring with the main catalog so be sure to get your favorites be for they are gone. My daughter is super sad to see this stamp set go as she is a huge cat fan. I need to give the creativity of these cards to her. She wanted to stamp with me one day so I had her pick things out and help to figure out how to stamp them. I guided her a bit as she is only 11 but overall they were mostly her creations. I think she did a great job.

160410 – Love Cats Stamp Set (R) (M)
159190 – Heart Pearls (R)
156485 – Black & White 1/4″ Gingham Ribbon (C)
155714 – Polished Pink 3/8″ Open Weave Ribbon (R)
152709 – Rectangular Postage Stamp Punch (R)
149643 – Brick & Mortar 3D Embossing Folder (R)
Colors – Polished Pink (R), Basic Black (C), Basic White (C)

(R) Retiring, (C) Carrying Over. (M) Found in the Mini Catalog

I bought the set specifically so she could use it for her valentine’s. We played around with a couple of ideas, ended up doing the project on the right which was attaching the image to one of our 3×3 envelopes. Before attaching it we punched a small hole in the bottom that we could put a sucker stick through. One of the things I loved about this project is that we used the stamparatus to make it easy for her to stamp the same image over and over again. I’m really sad that this tool is leaving as I haven’t had much of a chance to share it, but it sure can come in handy.
