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
Punches – Tailored Tag, Label Me Lovely, 2" circle, Lovely You Pick a Punch, Banner Triple
Other – Blends markers, rhinestone jewels, Dimensionals 

Below is the video for you.  Enjoy!

  • Life is Beautiful Fancy Fold card with Plaid Tidings


    Check out this pretty fancy fold card in rich but unusual fall colors!

    The colors are Pumpkin Pie with Blackberry Bliss taken from the pretty Plaid Tidings designer paper seen here.  Stampin' Up! is amazing at color combination with the papers.  This versatile paper is on sale through October! 

    I created this on a recent Facebook Live. I'll share the dimensions for you here:

    Measurements:

    • Blackberry Bliss – 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" for back and 4" X 11" scored at 2" and 3 3/4" from each end
    • Pumpkin Pie 3 3/4" square
    • Very Vanilla – 2 pieces at 3 1/2" square plus a scrap for the die-cut
    • Plaid Tidings DSP – 2 pieces at 4" X 3/4" 

    Details:

    • I stamped the tree in Early Espresso and the leaves in Pumpkin Pie & Blackberry bliss, stamping off once or twice first. 
    • I added a few 'Sequins for Everything' among the leaves. 
    • The greeting label is cut with the Ornate Frames dies and sponged with Pumpkin Pie ink. 

    I hope you like it!  I'll be sharing lots more cards with my Life is Beautiful stamp set this week!  Do you have yours yet?  If not go here to order!

  • Have a Hoot Bundle; for Christmas!


    At first I thought this bundle was just for Halloween.  But when looking at the images provided it works wonderfully for Christmas too!  

    I made these cards on Facebook Live last week. I've been working with the beautiful Snowflake Splendor designer paper all week; it's simply gorgeous and in so many of my favorite colors!

    Here's the first one.  Did you know the Peek-a-Hoot dies cut out all 3 window at once?!  There's no measuring or figuring out placement at all.  You can see the video below.  

    I stamped directly onto the Snowflake Splendor designer paper here.  I love the pretty purple/blue background!  The two owls are die-cut using the same die set.  I added a bit of color to them with Blends markers and finished with a bit of Balmy Blue glimmer accents and Adhesive Backed Snowflake Sequins. 

    This next card uses two of the tags left when die-cutting the windows on the card above.  I did cut out one extra.  I stamped and colored directly on them. 

    Other details:

    • A glimmer die-cut star covers up the 'spider' on the center panel.  
    • The Highland Heather panel (4" X 5 1/4") is embossed with the Winter Snow embossing folder.
    • the 3/4" X 5 1/4" strip of Snowflake Splendor DSP is under the three stamped tags. 
    • The greeting tag is punched with the Everyday Label punch; start with a 1/2" white strip. Stamp and punch.
