Changing up this fancy fold from a men’s card to glitzy!


I created this neat double-flap fancy fold card for last month's Card Clubs.  It features the He's the Man suite seen here or on pages 78-79 of the 2022-23 Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up!   

The colors include Soft Succulent, Early Espresso & White. 

Details:

  • The White & banner die-cuts are from the All That dies; but get the stamp set & dies in a bundle at an extra 10% off here.  
  • The DSP is from the He's the Man paper
  • All greetings are from the He's All That stamp set. 
  • The background is stamped using Versamark ink on the Soft Succulent panel. 
  • The inside white is a die-cut using the Deckled Rectangle dies seen here. 

I created a video showing you how to make it; click here to watch.  Or scroll down to the bottom of this post.  It looks hard but is sooo easy!  

Measurements

• Card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"; cut off 1 1/2" of the card front.
• side flap is 3" X 3 3/4" scored at 1/2" on the long side
• He's the Man DSP 2 1/2" X 5 1/4"
• White inside 4" X 5 1/4"

I had left-over packets of this card we made for club last month and decided to change it up for a totally new look!  

I switched out the He's the Man designer paper to the Texture Chic Specialty paper.  I also added a few vellum leaves from the Bough punch and a Gold die-cut accent from the Painted Label dies. 

The greeting is from the Good Feelings stamp set; the label is the new Handmade Tag punch in the Holiday catalog. 

This card features a die-cut butterfly from the Brilliant Wings dies.  The butterfly wing actually holds the left flap closed.  

I love the double flap of this fancy fold!   Here are all three versions of my 'make-over' cards.  I love switching it up to create something totally different and the Texture Chic specialty paper doesn't disappoint!  

And here's the video to see how it's made.  Click on the photo below to watch it.

  • It’s the last day to get January’s Paper Pumpkin kit! *add on dies to match!


    Today is the last day to opt in on January's Paper Pumpkin kit featuring Lovely Lavender. 

    They've announced the next three month's themes of Paper Pumpkin and there's a cool add-on die set called Love of Spring. These dies coordinate with the January, February & March kits!  It's only $12 but you do need to be a Paper Pumpkin subscriber to get them.  See them here. 

    Not a Paper Pumpkin subscriber yet?  It's so fun to get a ready made kit in the mail each month! I highly recommend choosing a pre-paid subscription during Sale-a-Bration.  If you choose a 3, 6 or 12 month pre-paid subscription you will get a free Sale-a-Bration choice!  Or more than one if you choose the 6 or 12 month subscription.  See the available Sale-a-Bration choices here: 

    It's the best way to go if you like to receive a crafty surprise each month. click here to get one.

    We're usually told what the them is before the 10th of each month so we can opt out if we do not want it. Which kits you receive is totally under your control!  

    Once you're a subscriber you can get any of the add-ons or the refill kits. They often add the refills to the monthly kits after the subscription period is over.  These refills have everything you need to make more of the original kit projects except for the stamps or ink. It's wonderful if you really love the projects in the kit!

  • Trusty Tools Latch fold card with free project sheet & video


    On last week's Live video I created two fun fold cards featuring the Trusty Tools bundle and the Trusty Toolbox designer paper. 

    The Trusty Tools bundle is in the new Spring catalog and the Trusty Toolbox designer paper is in our Sale-a-Bration catalog. They're an incredible pair that is unique and perfect for handy guys or gals and coordinate together wonderfully! 

    This card is a latch card.  Both flaps open but the Poppy Parade flap is 'caught' by the layered greeting element.  

    It's hard to explain how it works but the video I made shows how easy it is.  It's all about where to place the Dimensionals to 'catch or latch' the card closed.  I like my cards to stay mostly closed so I created this closure option. 

    Here's what the inside looks like:

    My colors were chosen by the Trusty Toolbox designer paper – Black, Poppy Parade & White. This special designer paper can be earned free now during Sale-a-Bration with any $50 purchase through Stampin' Up!.  See it here. 

    I suggest ordering the Trusty Toolbox bundle and then choose the designer paper as your free Sale-a-Bration choice.  See the bundle here online.  

    A word of advice on choosing Sale-a-Bration items. If you want both a pack of designer paper and a stamp set and cannot afford to get both, choose the designer paper first. They usually run out of papers, dies & gems before they run out of stamp sets. Then choose the stamp set with your next purchase. 

    You can download the free project sheet for the Trusty Toolbox card here. Download Trusty Tools Latch-fold card

    Below is a photo of both cards using this special latch fold.  The card on the lower left is made with the Lighter Than Air designer paper in Lemon Lolly & Balmy Blue.  It's one of the cards featured in my Lighter Than Air pre-cut kit to go seen here.
