An easy double flap fun fold layout with Pretty Prints DSP. A video, measurements and a gift card option!

I love fun fold cards that stay closed AND are easy for the recipient to figure out.  This double flap fancy fold card is just that!

We made them on Monday night's Stamp with Me Live.  You can watch the video here.

These cards feature the Pretty Prints designer paper seen here.  It's NEW in the 2022-23 Stampin' Up! Annual catalog.  There are multiple prints all in these 4 colors – Blackberry Bliss, Calypso Coral, Bermuda Bay and Evening Evergreen.

I used two stamp sets here; both new in the new Annual catalog.  Good Feelings seen here and Botanical Layers seen here.

One of my favorite things about this fun fold layout is that you can choose to fold or trim it off at the 1 1/2" mark.  Folding it inside creates a pocket for a gift card.  Trimming it off shortens it.  Your choice!  Or make a few of each like I did.

The die-cut butterflies from Brilliant Wings dies add a pretty touch to these botanical cards. The lower butterfly is added just beyond the outside corner flap to anchor it closed.  So easy and keeps the card laying flat.

• Peaceful Cabin card; easier than I thought!!

  August 2, 2021

  ---

  Tomorrow is an exciting day!  The Holiday AND the 2nd  Sale-a-Bration catalogs go live tomorrow.  Tuesday August 3rd you can now order from them. 

  *If you do not have a demonstrator or either of these catalogs contact me and I'll send you them.  

  I wanted to have a sample of this pretty bundle at my Holiday Catalog Launch party last week so I had a play with it.  I was so surprised on how easy it is to create with! 

  Save

  I stamped everything in Smoky Slate for a soft look. The card front is mostly two pieces.  The trees were stamped on the upper part of a 5 1/4" X 3 1/2" piece of White card stock.  The cabin and greeting were stamped on the same size piece.   

  Then I used the cabin edge die to cut the silhouette of it.  I adhered the tree layer to the Basic Gray card stock first.  Then added the cabin layer with dimensionals.  I added a few silver foil trees to the side; these are also dies in this set.

  Remember you can order this bundle tomorrow Tuesday, August 3rd here.

• Split Front card technique; it’s easy with my template & video!

  July 30, 2021

  I also used another sneak peak product from the upcoming Holiday catalog; the Timber 3D embossing folder.  Of course I stamped the greeting before I embossed it. 

  Save

  I hope you watch the video below to get the tips on cutting these pieces and finishing the cards. 

  Here is the template.  Start out with a 4" X 5 1/4" piece of card stock AND of Designer Paper.  

  Save

  I suggest you cut this out of scrap card stock.  Make marks where indicated and cut on the diagonal.  Once you have the template I first place the bottom left piece (2 1/2") over my cut DSP & CS pieces and cut.  Then I use the upper right piece (3 3/4") on the remaining piece of papers and cut.  That leaves me with the center piece ready to go. 

  Here's the video for you:
