Exploring fun fold card

This is a super cool card with a pop up surprise when you open the card. I love that we can use some our precious DSP scraps…specially if you are like me and save every tiny bit of them…

I am using the Hues of Happiness Suite, which you can find in the Annual Catalog. I think the minute I saw this suite, I fell in love with it, and have enjoyed working with it. I made 2 other cards using Sale-A-Bration papers and the Mini catalog.

A twist on the planter fun fold card.

This “planter” fun fold card is definitely a card you need to try! The version I saw was focused on the “planter” part of the card… I figure we could spin it a little and get creative. I can only imagine the happiness it will bring to the recipient. Let’s learn together how to make this card. Check out the video tutorial for the instructions. Below you will find the free pdf tutorial.

I made 2 different versions of this card, using products from the Mini Catalog. The card on the video uses the Kindest Gnomes bundle and Storybook Gnomes paper. These 2 products belong to the Storybook Gnomes Suite, a super fun and playful suite in the mini catalog. I love the the bundle can be used for all seasons. The second card is a Halloween card. This card uses a combination of last years products and the Scary Cute Bundle.

Pop up book card with twist

Have you see the pop up book cards? I fell in love with them a few months back, when I first saw them. Well, I figured we can make a couple of changes and create a beautiful Christmas card.

I have been trying bit it use every single Stampin’Up product I have in one card, but I definitely have difficulties with it. I do believe it is a good exercise to mix and match your stamp sets and dies, which will enhance their use and worth. All stamp sets and dies are included in the new catalog and Sale-A-Bration:
