Stunning Garden Poetry Fun-fold card kit with tutorial option

The Garden Poetry designer paper was a firm choice for one of my card kits. It’s absolutely breathtaking with the coordinating prints in leafy and watercolor designs.

I wanted to show off both sides of this beautiful paper so I chose to feature fun folds for these cards.

• Diamond Gatefold fun fold card with Season of Green & Gold specialty paper – video too!

  On last week's Live video I created this beautiful fun fold card. It shows off both sides of our double sided designer paper beautifully!

  I chose to feature the stunning Season of Green & Gold specialty designer series paper seen here online.  It's filled with shades of green with gold foil accents and is part of our Online product line.

  I cased my friend Susie Wood who made the card on the left below:

  She used the Regal Flora designer paper in Cherry Cobbler with Blackberry Bliss. So very pretty!  Find more projects by my talented friend from Iowa here on her blog. 

  I love this neat fold!

  Details:

  • The pretty gold die-cut is from the Peaceful Season bundle seen here.
  • The greeting is from the Something Fancy stamp set seen here
  • The leaf die-cuts are from the Delicate Forest dies seen here

  Look at the extra details inside too. Wedding cards are fun because you can go over the top a bit! This gorgeous card will be given to my youngest son who's getting married this week.  I'm so thrilled for him and his fiance'. We're excited to welcome her into our family!

  It used a pieces of designer paper measuring 12" X 5 1/4" that is adhered to a card base of 4 1/4" X 5 1/2".  It's scored at 2", 4", 8" and 10". Then the corners are folded down. Here's the simple template I drew:
