How to make an Easy Fun Fold Window card with the Daffodil Afternoon Designer Paper


This is one of the card folds I demonstrated on last week's FB Live where I featured the Daffodil Daydream bundle along with the coordinating Daffodil Afternoon DSP.  

I love how our products coordinate so wonderfully.  This Daffodil Afternoon DSP is part of our Sale-a-Bration promotion.  It's free with any $50 Stampin' Up! order.  This promotion ends on February 28th. See all of the free products here.  

For the greetings I used the Special Moments stamp set; also in our 2022 Sale-a-Bration catalog.  It's a big set of 21 images and it's free with a $100 order through February.  

The cards look like a simple window card from the front; before you open it.  I used the Layering Circles dies, cutting through both the DSP and card base for the window.  

The front of these cards both use the same Designer Paper; you can get a totally different look depending on which sheet you choose. The cute layered butterflies are from the Daffodil dies. 

This is how the card looks when you open it.  It's a simple double fold that the circles are easily added to.  Just close the card and add them 'through' the window onto the inside layer. 

Below is the video.  This card is the second project I share.  If you like fun fold cards be sure to catch the last one; it's a wonderful accordion style card!

  • Gorgeous Fall Swaps from the Flowerbug’s!


    Today I'm sharing a few of the amazing cards my Flowerbug's Team swapped this weekend.  The theme was Fall cards. 

    Annette made this first one using the Rooted in Nature bundle.  

    You may not see it well but she used the leaf dies in this set to create a textured White background.  Her colors are Cinnamon Cider & Rich Razzleberry.  A unique, Asian inspired card!

    Paula made this one using the Autumn Goodness bundle.  It's a fun fold too where the front, middle is the card opening! That piece is 3 3/4" X 8 1/2" folded in half. 

    The pretty designer paper is the Gilded Autumn specialty paper.  This bundle includes dies that cut out the flowers and the wheelbarrow.  

    Candace made this one with two stamp sets; the Life is Beautiful for the leaves and greeting and the Way to Goat set for the goat who's kicking up the leaves!  Super fun and colorful!

  • Love of Leaves; get two colors on one stamp!


    I was inspired by a card swap I received to create this pretty card.  It features the Love of Leaves bundle; one of my favorites in the new Stampin' Up! 2020 Holiday Catalog.  there's also a 3/4" strip of the beautiful Plaid Tidings designer paper here which is where the color combination came from. 

    We made this colorful card at my Flowerbug's Team gathering on Saturday.  It features a two toned stamping technique you should really try!  The solid images are perfect for it! 

    Can you see the two toned effect on the largest leaf?   It's done like this:  

    • Ink the leaf in Pumpkin Pie (the lightest color of the two).
    • Next use a sponge dauber (can use a sponge too, but it's more difficult to control) and add Rich Razzleberry ink (the darker color) to the edges of the leaf image.  
    • Huff and stamp. Then die-cut with the Stitched Leaves dies. 

    I did the same thing on the long leaf with Crushed Curry & Pumpkin Pie but it isn't showing up as well.

    Other details:

    • White CS is 3 1/2" X 4 3/4" and textured with the Stitched Leaves dies
    • Plaid Tidings DSP is 3/4" X 5 1/4" 
    • Rich Razzleberry main card is 5 1/2" X 8 1/2". 
    • Inks are Rich Razzleberry, Pumpkin Pie and Crushed Curry. 
    • The greeting is punched from the Label Me Lovely punch. I started out with a 1" White strip of card stock.  Stamp the greeting and insert into the punch for a unique shape! 

    See the Lovely Leaves bundle here and the Plaid Tidings designer paper here.

  • Stitched Window cards; FB Live Replay


    This week's Stamp with Me Live video featured a window technique using dies.  The 2nd & 4th Monday of the month I offer a 'Stamp with Me' Live on my FB page here.  Be sure to follow my page so you get notified! 

    My original card idea came from the Holiday catalog and used the Love of Leaves dies.  But I switched it up to use the Stitched Stars dies with the Playful Patterns designer series paper for these fun cards: 

    I used the smallest three star dies to create 'windows' in my card stock.  Then I popped them up over the Playful Patterns designer paper. Add a greeting and another card stock strip and you're done!  So quick & easy! 

    Watch the video below to catch all of the tips and see the original cards too.  

    Measurements:
    • Card stock for window 4 1/4" X 3 1/4"
    • Designer Paper 4 1/2" X 3 1/2"
    • Greeting strips 3/4"-1" X 4" wide
