Brilliant Accordion Fun Fold card; it’s a big WOW!


If you ever want to impress someone with an extra special hand made card, try one of these Accordion cards.  They are so easy to make it looks fancy and a bit tricky. 

I used the Daffodil Afternoon designer paper from our current Sale-a-Bration promotion. You can see it here and get it free with any $50 Stampin' Up! order.  

The neat greetings are all from the Special Moments stamp set; another free choice from our Sale-a-Bration promotion through February.  See all of our free SAB choices here. 

Details:

  • The colors are Crushed Curry & Mossy Meadow with a bit of Flirty Flamingo.
  • Beautiful Layer dies – greeting die-cut shapes 
  • Medium Daisy punch – flowers (sponged color on the edges)
  • Daffodil dies – stems & daisy centers 
  • Bough punch – leaves

 The fold is actually quite simple for the inside of this card.  I hope you watch the video below to see how it's done.  

Accordion card measurements: 

  • Card base 5 ½” X 8 ½”
  • DSP 5 ¼” X 10” scored at 2”, 3”, 4”, 5”, 6”, 7” & 8”
  • Vanilla 3 ½” X 4 ¾” for front & 1 ¾” X 4 ¾” inside
  • Front DSP 1 ½” X 3 ½”, Mossy CS 3 ¾” X 5”

  • Flowers for Every Season & more!


    Here are more of our Flowerbug Team swap cards featuring the new In Colors. 

    First is a card made by Mary with the Flowers for Every Season designer paper in Just Jade.

    Sweet & Simple letting the designer paper be the star of the card. The greeting is from So Sentimental and the die-cut is from Stitched So Sweetly. 

    Next is a card by Paula using the Tasteful Labels dies and the Flowers for Every Season paper also. 

    What a fun layout!  Can you see that wonderful texture on the Vanilla layer?  That's the Tasteful Texture 3D embossing folder.  The circles and greeting are all from the die-cuts from the Tasteful Labels set of dies.  

    Next is a pretty sunflower card made by Jane.  She used the In Color 6 X 6" paper for the solid part of the sunflower.  

    The greeting is from the Celebrate Sunflowers. Order the stamp set with these dies in a bundle at 10% savings.  Love these delicate dies!  

    Tip: Did you know that almost all of our dies are now thinner and cut better?  They reformulated them with the last few catalogs so they cut beautifully.  It's not a struggle to get them out of the dies like it used to be. However I've found that if I do a bunch of the same at a time, I do use a piece of waxed paper every 5 die-cuts and that sure makes a difference!

  • Hippo’s & Dandelions?


    Today I have two more swap cards made by my talented Flowerbug's Team.  I still have more to share yet! 

    The first card is made by a brand new demonstrator; Tracey.  This was her first swap too!  She used the new Hippo Happiness bundle. 

    Her colors are Just Jade, Daffodil Delight and Magenta Madness.  She stamped her own background using some of the images in the set.  That swirly die-cut we all love is from the Painted Labels die-cuts.  Such a sweet card! 

    I LOVE these dies; look at all of the labels. There are 9 of them! 

    Karen made this pretty card below with the new Dandelions 3D embossing folder.  

    She used our Vellum card stock; did you know when you run it through an embossing folder it turns 'white' or opaque?  So cool!  You'll start looking at using vellum and your folders more now, right?  She added adhesive to the back of the flower heads and behind the greeting.  

    Her sentiment if from the Forever Fern stamp set and is punched out with the new Rectangular Postage Punch. 

    More swap cards coming up!

  • Nothing’s Better Than cards


    Have you noticed the 'Nothing's Better Than' bundle yet?  You will want to check it out on page 91 of the Annual Catalog.  

    Candace made two CUTE cards with it and the new Rainbow Glimmer paper. 

    First up is a fun card with a ton of stitched die-cut circles from glimmer paper for a background.  

    Her colors are Just Jade with Misty Moonlight and Early Espresso. The stitched circles are all part of the Rainbow Glimmer paper!

      

    Her next card uses the same bundle except she stamped and colored the chocolates and cookies this time.  I believe she used watercolor pencils for her coloring. 

    The 'Chocolate' greeting die-cut is the same Rainbow glimmer paper seen here!  You can see this cute bundle here. 

    You'll see more swaps and talent tomorrow!
