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.  

Save

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.

• Double Flap fold with Branching Out with video & free project sheet

  September 15, 2025

  I shared this card on last week’s Live:

  Save

  It features the new Branching Out bundle from the 2025 Holiday catalog from Stampin’ Up! See the bundle here.

  Save

  My colors include Early Espresso with Old Olive, Pecan Pie & White.

  It opens with two flaps; one on the right opens first. Then the left does too. As you can see I textured the Olive layer with the Birch Wood 3D embossing folder. The notched frame dies are included in the Branching Out bundle.

  The designer paper on the left is the Need for Tweed seen here.

• Autumn Garland Kit

  I love this autumn garland kit!  I made it for my open house display and am in love! 

  Save

  I’ll show my own photos soon but wanted to share the video for it here.  It took me about 1 hour and 15 minutes to make and it’s huge & gorgeous!  I had many extra leaves left. The copper leaves and acorns add beautiful accents.  

  It comes with everything you need but hot glue.

  You can see it online here.

  I loved playing with the new Joyful Days Memory & More cards. Such pretty pine themed cards!

  I hope you enjoyed seeing some of my new Holiday displays.  I love holding these open houses because I get to see customers & friends I don’t see regularly.  And I get to cook for them too, which I totally enjoy!
