During the last weeks of November, I ran to my mail box each day to collect the GORGEOUS cards you’ve sent for my 2022 Holiday One-for-One Card Swap. Today I have the pleasure of sharing another batch of these cards with you. Yay! In a series of several posts over the next couple of weeks, I will share each of these beautiful cards with everyone. There’s so much wonderful inspiration to share!
If you missed the first swap card posts, you can see them here:
- DAY ONE: 2022 Holiday One-for-One Card Swap
- DAY TWO: 2022 Holiday One-for-One Card Swap
- DAY THREE: 2022 Holiday One-for-One Card Swap – Barbara Moody
I love these swaps because they showcase beautiful projects from card makers at ALL SKILL LEVELS – some are brand new to the craft, and others have been creating for years. Please look them over, admire their beauty and then let the creators know how beautiful their cards are (I already know you’ll be kind with your comments, but I am going to request it, anyway).
If you participated in the swap and don’t see the card you received here, please wait to comment about that card when it shows up on my blog – that way, the creator of that card will be sure to see your comments.
Today’s projects all feature fancy folds, so I’m including two pictures of each of the projects to give you an idea of how they open up. Such fun! The collection of cards I’m sharing today might not all have current Stampin’ Up! products, but every card gives great ideas for color combinations, layouts, techniques – every project is sure to inspire you. Without any further ado, here are some of these cards:
What do you think? Aren’t those awesome?! Please leave a comment below to let these artists know how much you love their heartfelt creations. If you like these projects and want to see all of the other cards in this Holiday One-for-One Cards Swap, I’ll be posting more in the coming days. ♥

They are wonderful…can we have their site to see how they made them?
Thank you
Good Morning,
I love the fancy-fold layout of Brenda & Joyce. I see you are both from MN. Are you friends? I have friends in Brooklyn Park, MN. I have never seen this fancy fold but hope to try it in the new year. Thanks for sharing.
Have a blessed day.
Hi Nancy! Thank you for the nice comments. Glad you liked the fold. YES! Joyce and I are friends and Stampin’ Up! teammates. We both live in central MN but do have a teammate in the Brooklyn Park area of MN. Isn’t if a wonderful small world? Thanks again.
These folks out-did themselves. I really enjoyed looking at their cards and I too would love to be able to download how they created them. After 30 years of cardmaking it’s always surprising that new designs show up! Thank you,
Great Fun Fold ideas! Some real beauties in this selection . I must admit that Kevin`s Gnome card is the one that wins the CUTE AWARD !!
A great bunch of jazzy cards! I received Paulette Berkbigler’s card and it is gorgeous IRL. So beautiful, Paulette! Such a fun swap, thanks Brian!
Thanks so much for your kind remarks, Barbara! It’s always fun to try new ideas & even better to share them 😊. Thanks, Brian, for all the time & hard work that makes it possible for us to see everyone’s beautiful cards 💕
I just love fun folds! Thanks to everyone for sharing their wonderful ideas through Brian’s swap. I am the lucky recipient of Joyce’s card. It is beautiful. The red, white, and blue snowflake combination is a real winner! Thanks Joyce!
Thank you Brenda for the nice comment and what a small world that you would get my card.
Yay!Funfolds! Clever designs and beautiful work. Such a wonderful collection. Thanks, everyone, for the inspiration!
Beautiful cards! I love fun folds, too! I received Sally’s card and it just sparkles in real life. Thank you, Sally! Thanks to Brian for hosting this fun swap!
I received a fancy fold Linda (from Wisconsin) and I love it. Even before I received it I wanted to copy the fold ideas in the future! Thank you Linda! Thanks to all who participated too! So much fun!
Today’s Fun-Fold variety is outstanding. So many wonderful ideas. It would be difficult to choose a favorite. Enjoy your day!
Wow, this group of cards is amazing! Such good ideas and great execution. Thanks to everyone because each card has given me something CASEable for a rainy Sunday!
Good morning, Brian!
These are all wonderful fancy fold cards! Just awesome!
As a former Minnesotan (St Paul, Bloomington,Owatonna, Woodbury, and lastly Eden Prairie), I love seeing MN by your names!
Thank you all!
Great cards!! I love fun folds!!! Can’t wait to see the rest of the cards!!!
Enjoyed the cards. What is the name of the fun fold card that Brender S and Joyce H made? Thanks for sharing.
Oh my. I don’t know if the fold has a name!?!? I had stored a swap sample away from years ago and used it as an example. You should give it a name, Randee! I cannot even give credit to the person who I received the original swap from as the post-it note name had been lost in years of handling and thinking, “I should CASE that swap!”
Super pretty cards!
Oh how fun that my teammates Joyce and Brenda did the same fold and design but in different colors! I love them both!
These cards are all so great! I’ve been with the grandkids in Florida at Disney, and just got home last night about midnight. The first envelope I opened, when checking my mail, was my swap card, and I was thrilled! Kevin Boyer, I was so lucky to get your fun card, and I love the fold! Thank you, and thanks again, Brian for organizing the swap!
