More fun fold cards!

Each day this week I'm sharing many of the Fun Fold card swaps made by my talented Flowerbug's Team.  They are amazing! 

First is Candace's pretty Double Triangle card:

May Candace Poppy Save

This card is so fun to make and to receive! You can find all kinds of tutorials for this fold.  Here's a video I made for it: 

The best thing about this card fold is how perfectly it uses both your card stock and designer paper without waste!  And it makes 2 cards at the same time!

Start out with a full 8 1/2" X 11" piece of card stock.  Score it down the center both ways; at 5 1/2" and 4 1/4".  Then cut in half on the diagonal like this:

Now cut two pieces of designer paper measuring 4" X 5 1/4" in half.  Use double sided paper for the best use; two for each card.

Candace used the retiring Peaceful Poppies designer paper seen here, the Painted Label dies and the Peaceful Moments bundle.  I love that splash of designer paper inside the card!

  • 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!   

    June He's the Man Save

    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!  

    June He's the Man Save

    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!  

    Texture Chic & He's the Man Save

    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. 

    Texture Chic & He's the Man Save

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

    Texture chic funfold Save

    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!

  • Unique Silver & Gold Designer Paper technique ideas with video!

    I played with the Silver & Gold Designer Series Paper on this week's FB Live and this is one of my favorite projects: 

    Silver & gold Stack & Cut Save

    My goal was to share different ways to add color to this pretty metallic themed paper.  for this card I used our Water Brushes and our 2022-24 In Color ink.  I filled the water brush with water, using the largest brush, added a wash of four of the five colors.  

    This card layout is one referred to as the Stack & Cut technique.  You start out with at least 2 pieces of Designer Paper measuring 3 3/4" X 5" and cut using the template below.  It's so easy and is a fabulous way to showcase your designer paper.

    The sentiment is from the Amazing Phrasing stamp set – a free choice from our Sale-a-Bration catalog.  This stamp set is free with any $100 Stampin' Up! order.  See all of the Sale-a-Bration free choices here.  

    Silver & gold Stack & Cut Save

    If you want either of these products why not take advantage of my BOGO sale and get free products from me with our purchase.  You'll still get New products from Stampin' Up! but also get to choose from my big bunch of retired Stampin' Up! products.  See details below, or view them all in my two albums here on my FB page.

  • CUTE Butterfly Kisses Card Kit to go or Tutorial

    I chose to feature the Butterfly Kisses designer paper for one of my August card kits to go.  It's so colorful & bright!  

    Butterfly Kisses cards Save

    I created 2 each of 5 different cards; a few are special fun fold designs.  I find it quite enjoyable to create when I gather products that 'work' together so easily.  I let the colors in the DSP guide me and added Starry Sky ribbon & Fun Flowers resin shapes for accents.  

    If you like these cards you have a few options; get the pre-cut kit to go with the PDF tutorial or just the PDF tutorial only.  

    The pre-cut kit includes the following: 

    • All pre-cut pieces including punched or die-cuts
    • 1/2 pkg of 6 X 6" Butterfly Kisses DSP (you'll cut using the directions)
    • a share of Starry Sky Metallic Woven ribbon
    • a share of Fun Flowers Resin Shapes
    • The free PDF tutorial – photos, step by step directions, measurements & a supplies list

    Choose the pre-cut kit here or the PDF tutorial here.
