A set of fun fold cards with NEW designer paper! Free project sheet & video too


Yesterday I shared one of these fun fold cards and today I’ll share the other two. All feature the brand new Artisan Sketched Garden designer paper. It’s coming out on May 5th in the May-August catalog from Stampin’ Up!

I shared the top card yesterday and today I’ll share the lower two.

First is this SUPER easy fun fold card. It’s a great way to use your DSP up. The front layer is 3″ X 4″; perfect for 12 X 12″ DSP.

I chose to use two of the retiring 2024-26 In Colors for this one. Summer Splash and Pretty in Pink with Black & White. This Artisan Sketched Garden DSP is all Black & White but I colored the flowers and leaves in with Blends markers. The greeting image is from the Greetings for all Ephemera pack seen here. It’s one of my very favorite greeting packs and it’s carrying over too! The Black punched piece is from the Heartfelt Hexagon punch. Sadly it just retired and is not out of stock.

The inside White layer hides the end of the scored Pink flap. It’s a really neat and simple fun fold card. Click here to access the free project sheet.

And here is the last card in this trio of fun fold cards featuring the new Artistic Sketched Garden DSP. It’s another side flap card:

My colors include Lemon Lime Twist, Blueberry Bushel with White. The scored side flap flips to the right and has the diagonal squares with the greetings attached. The greeting is part of the Greetings for All Ephemera pack again; added to the Labeled with Love punched piece. This is retiring now and available here while supplies last.

Here’s how it opens:

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

    Split Front card Iconic dies

    I used the Beauty of the Earth DSP seen here.  The die-cuts are from the Iconic and Artistic dies. in White & Misty Moonlight. The greeting is from the In Symmetry stamp set. Those pretty Subtle Shimmer sequins are from the upcoming Holiday catalog which starts next week!!

    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.

    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.  

    Split Front Template

    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:

  • Welcoming Woods sponged background


    Here's one more card featuring the upcoming Welcoming Woods stamp set from the Holiday Catalog. 

    I went for a colorful background here with Highland Heather, Calypso Coral and Daffodil Delight.

    I kept this at an extremely simple layout.  Sometimes I just look in my scrap basket of colors I want to use and figure out a layout with them.  These cards frequently turn out to be my favorites!

    Measurements:

    • White card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", White main image 3" X 4 1/4"
    • Black 3 3/4" X 2 1/4"
    • Calypso Coral 1 5/8" X 4 1/4" 
    • Daffodil Delight strip 1/2" X 4" 

    I hope the cards I've shared using this Welcoming Woods stamp set have inspired you to add it to your list!  We can order from the Holiday catalog starting Tuesday, August 3rd!

  • Welcoming Woods Holiday Catalog Sneak Peak


    With each new catalog I join a bunch of online swaps so I can get lots of samples to share with my customers.  Both the Holiday catalog and a 2nd Sale-a-Bration catalog start on August 3rd!  I know my customers started to receive theirs last week. 

    I loved the Welcoming Woods stamp set immediately.  Nature, trees, 'scene building' sets are some of my favorites.  

    I went for a soft look of winter trees on my card. 

    Welcoming Woods swap

    I stamped the trees in Crumb Cake ink onto the White CS.  Then I added snowflakes in Balmy Blue ink and sponged a light 'mist' of Balmy Blue on the sky.  Of course I added a few rhinestones for sparkle!

    That beautiful Designer Paper is called Harvest Meadow.  

    Welcoming Woods

    The tags for the greeting is from the Tailor Made Tags dies seen here. 

    Measurements:

    • Crumb Cake card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • White 3" X 4"
    • Balmy Blue 3 1/4" X 4 1/4"
    • Harvest Meadow DSP 2" X 4 1/4"
