Double-Decker fun fold card with video tutorial and free project sheet


Here's the second card we made at my September card clubs. It's a 'Double-Decker' fun fold card. 

It features the pretty All About Autumn specialty paper that is so popular it's been hard to keep in stock! It should be back around the middle of October.  See it here.  

For the circle die-cuts I chose to use both Stylish Shapes for the Vanilla circles and Deckled circle dies for the Early Espresso circle.  The die-cuts in Vanilla & Copper Clay are from the Magical Meadow dies.

The greetings are from one of my favorite stamp sets in the Holiday catalog – So Sincere.  

Here's the free project sheet for you: Download Sept '23 Double Decker card

A double-decker card is where the center layer is popped up by a small box attached to the inside, back of the card like this.

You need to adhere the back layer before adding this box. Then you top it with your center layer; for my version it's a piece of designer paper.

I added a second circle to the inside designer paper layer for signing.  But one of my smart customers thought of adding it to the back so it doesn't cover up any of the pretty paper. A great idea!

  • Christmas Season is for Fall too! Watch the short video tutorial!


    Here's one of the cards we made at my September card clubs.  It features the Christmas Season bundle.  But as you can see, it's not just for Christmas! 

    I love using non-traditional colors for Fall.  I used Cajun Craze, Bermuda Bay, Vanilla and Crushed Curry. We stamped the images and then added texture with the Timber or Timeworn Type 3D embossing folders.   

    Here's the Christmas Season bundle. Look at all you get!  Remember this bundle is FREE with the purchase of the Starter kit through September, 2021.  It's such a great deal; if you love Stampin' Up! products I honestly believe it's the best thing you can do for yourself.  Click here to get started saving money and enjoying being a part of the Stampin' Up! family. 


    Or purchase this bundle and get a free Sale-a-Bration choice through September.

    The greetings are from the Biggest Wish set.  It's one of my very favorite sets!  It's so fun to layer the greetings!

     

    You might notice the pretty Dazzling leaf die-cuts here.  That is from the Sunflower dies and the Be Dazzling specialty paper from our Sale-a-Bration catalog.  Sadly it is out of stock now. 

    Click on the photo below to watch the short video tutorial on this card technique.  Or click here.

    Think of the many stamps you own that you could create a pretty background with.  Simply add a greeting tag over it.

  • Nuts About Squirrels Z-Fold card!


    The Nuts About You stamp set is just plain cute!  It's a 2-step set as you can see.  The squirrels, leaves and even acorn have two images each so there's no need to color!  

    I created this card for our Flowerbug's Team swap in September.  Our theme was Fall or Halloween.  

    Card stock & ink colors are Cinnamon Cider, Early Espresso, Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake, Pumpkin Pie, Pear Pizzazz

    See that little surprise pop-up circle inside?  That's attached with a thin strip of window sheet and adhered to the inside of the Early Espresso strip. 

    Measurements:

    • Cinnamon Cider 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 2 3/4" and 5 1/2" & scrap for die-cut greeting
    • Early Espresso 1 1/2" X 11" scored at 2 3/4" and 5 1/2" & 3 1/2" X 4 7/8"
    • Very Vanilla 3 3/8" X 4 5/8", 2 1/8" X 3" tall for inside plus a small circle

  • Fun Treat box made from our Acetate Card Boxes


    Did you know we carry the perfect size clear box for gifting a set of A2 cards?  You can see them here or on page 137 of the annual catalog. They fit about 4 cards inside depending on how many layers there are. 

    Well Marilyn cut one box in half and created this adorable treat box for her Card Club friends!  

    It features the Cute Halloween designer paper and Frightfully Cute stamp set. 

    There's a template for the card stock below.  She used the Basic Border dies (seen here) to cut the bottom edge but you wouldn't have to.  If you don't use the Basic Borders Dies on the edge, you could cut the 5-1/2" down to 5".

    She filled it with lots of treats & embellishments.  It also fits an entire full size Kit Kat bar! 

    She uses a mini velcro dot for closure.  The card stock is actually inserted inside the box and mini glue dots are used to keep it in place.  

    And here's the template for the card stock insert.
