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.

• Two projects with the brand new Color & Contour bundle!!

  April 22, 2021

  ---

  I created these cards when I was working on some card swaps I participated in.  I like to create a bunch of cards and then decide which one's to use and mail out.  

  I chose the Color & Contour bundle because it's full of wonderful dies perfect for the pretty floral image in the stamp set. And I'm glad it's a 2-step stamp set. 

  For this first card I chose the Pale Papaya In Color and accented it with Black. 

  Can you spy all of the new products I used?  There are 5 if you count everything.  

  Save

  1. The Scalloped Contour dies – the pretty Black scalloped border and the main scalloped rectangle; all in the same bundle. 
  2. Color & Contour stamp set (included in the bundle at 10% off).  I stamped the background with a daisy stamp in the set 
  3. Pale Papaya ink and card stock
  4. Pale Papaya & White ribbon
  5. Genial Gems (the package includes Pale Papaya & Mint Macaron)

  ~~~~

  Next is a card I did end up using for an online swap. The colors here are Fresh Freesia and Soft Succulent. 

  Save

  Look at the new Gingham paper!  It's included in the Pansy Petals 12" designer series paper pack.  Look at the gorgeous ribbon!  It's so soft & pretty and available in all of our new In Colors. 

  I also used another new dies set called Tailor Made Tags for the greeting.  It has 4 sizes of tags in two styles along with reinforcements for the holes.  I cannot wait for you all to have the new Annual Catalog in your hands!!  

  If you want to get your hands on the new Annual Catalog products early you can add any of these items to your Starter Kit seen here.  Our Starter Kit is always 20% off; you get $125 in product for just $99 and free shipping as well!

• Three neat cards with the Dragonfly Garden bundle including a Faux shaker & Fun-Fold card

  April 21, 2021

  ---

  I have a few special cards to share today.  They look difficult or 'fancy' but aren't.  At the end of this post is the video where I share how to make them.  Scroll down to see it or click here.

  This first card is a fun fold that opens in a unique way.  

  Save

  It's made of two folded pieces of card stock and a few circle dies.  The punched dragonflies are directly from the Dandy Garden DSP.  I didn't stamp them since they match the Dragonflies punch perfectly!

  I posted the measurements in the photo for you.  I try to share them on my FB Live's so people can take screen shots. 

  Save

  This next card is a 'Faux Shaker' card.  I use one of Stampin' Up!'s clear envelopes to create a pocket of fun that I add to my card front. They are so addictive to shake & rattle!  Watch how in the video below; it's surprisingly easy to make!  

  Save

  This last card was made to highlight the beautiful but seldom seen Dandelions 3D embossing folder.  It's so pretty and wonderfully detailed.  Great for simple but elegant cards as you can see here.  

  Save

  This card was made using Purple Posy card stock which is retiring this month. So sad to see it go!  But we are getting a new purple/pink color in the 2021 new catalog called Fresh Freesia that I know we'll love. 

  Here's the video; I hope you watch it!

• Circle Celebration; so fun!

  April 20, 2021

  ---

  I have to share this neat card Chanda made for her Card Club swap.  I love seeing their style and what my gals make. 

  Save

  She stamped the images from the Circle Celebration stamp set (seen here) all over her 4" X 5 1/4" White CS.  Then she stamped more and punched and fussy cut them out to add dimension to the card. 

  I believe her colors are Bermuda Bay, Crushed Curry and Real Red. 

  Such a fun and happy card.  Great job Chanda! 

  I'll be using this fun stamp set in a Kit to Go in May; the cards are so fun!!
