Accordion Style Fun-Fold card with video


Here's another easy fun fold card that shows off all sides of your designer series paper.  And uses up thin strips too! 

I made them during my weekly 'Stamp With Me' Facebook Live last week.  

I chose to use the Brights 6 X 6" designer paper pack and the Many Mates stamp set.  

Aren't they fun?  The back is flat and does not open.  You could include a full card base on it instead of a flat piece if you'd like.  I will write or sign the inside on the larger White part.

You might notice there are dots around some of the punched pieces.  I used my Blends markers to add that fun detail.  I also colored in some of the words on the greetings too.  This stamp set is fun! 

When you adhere the greeting on the front add adhesive to just the very top flap. 

Measurements:
Card base: 5 1/2" X 4 1/4"
next layer 5 1/4" X 4", textured
White accordion fold 4 1/4" X 9" scored at 1", 2", 4" and 6"
Designer paper – 3 pieces 4" tall. 3/4", 1 1/4" and 2 3/4"
 
Supplies:
Stamps – Many Mates
Ink – Gorgeous Grape, Pacific Point, Bermuda Bay, Flirty Flamingo, Black Memento
Card stock – Brights DSP, Gorgeous Grape, Bermuda Bay, Flirty Flamingo, Daffodil Delight, Pacific Point, Black

  • The Branching Out bundle is retiring! Check out this fun fold card with video tutorial!


    We made this card earlier this fall and I realize I haven’t shared it with you yet. I also made a video too – scroll down….

    The colors include Pecan Pie with Crumb Cake, Early Espresso & Shaded Spruce. I used various wood-like designer series papers for the side panel. See how it has a double fold?

    Also notice the ‘white’ snow on the pine boughs plus snow in the background. You can achieve that without heat embossing. We used White Craft ink and stamped over the pine. Easy & a fun accent!

    The stamp set is retiring but the dies are not. The bundle is on the last chance list now. Click here to see it.
    It’s been one of my favorite products in our Holiday catalog this year. It’s timeless and can be used for fall, winter or Christmas!

    Besides the video tutorial here’s a free project sheet for you too. Click here to download or print it.

    I’m glad the dies are not retiring but I have to say the stamp set is among my top 5 favorites!

    Below is the video tutorial which gives you tips on stamping the branches with the pines and pine cones.

  • Easy Holiday cards made from tags! Free project sheet & video tutorial.


    I look forward to receiving my Paper Pumpkin boxes each month. November’s Wrapped in Cheer kit featured holiday tags and I couldn’t waste an opportunity to make cards from them. I need a lot more Christmas cards than I do tags!

    I didn’t change the tag from the original except for the linen thread bow at the top. But I did add it to a Basic Beige textured layer and then onto a Cherry Cobbler card base.
    Now that is an easy card!

    To create the colored leaves inside the card I used the empty piece of paper from the kit where the leaves had been removed. I’m always looking for easy ways to add to the inside of my cards.

    There were two different tags in this kit. Aren’t they pretty?

    I used the embossing folder called Traditional Wreath 3D folder; it can be seen here. It’s discounted and available while supplies last.
    *The greeting is from the stamps in the kit.

    Below is the video tutorial for this card and more information on Paper Pumpkin.

  • Wrapped in Cheer tags for Christmas


    I shared the November Paper Pumpkin kit on last week’s live video. I just love receiving my crafty box in the mail each month! Easy crafting without a plan or step it up and use your creativity to change the projects.

    There were two different tags in this kit and each one includes multiple pieces. Aren’t they pretty? The embossing folder is called Traditional Wreath 3D folder and can be seen here. It’s discounted and available while supplies last.
    *The greeting is from the stamps in the kit.

    I used the tags to make Christmas cards which you can see below. All I did was add a textured layer and a card base. *I’ll share more details tomorrow.

    Remember that each month my subscribers and Team receive my bonus projects PDF. Lots of unique ideas to create with the contents of each box. Subscribe to Paper Pumpkin here.

    Below is the video where I share this kit, last months and how to make the cards too.
