Good Friday morning my fellow stampers and welcome to Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? The weekend is only hours away, I hope you have some fun plans.
For today I have a fun fold card that I honestly have never made before. I was very pleased with myself that I did it on the first try. Here’s my card.
My card played along with Global Design Project Color Challenge #197. Here are their colors
I also joined in with Always Fun Challenge #118. Their theme is “Anything Goes”.
I started by using the largest Layering Circle Die and adhering it with washi tape with the cutting side up in the center of the inside of a Pear Pizzazz card base . I folded both sides closed and cut the oval out with my cutting machine.
I actually worked on the inside of my card first this time. I stamped the sand image from the Stampin’ Up High Tide Photopolymer Stamp Set in Crumb Cake Ink on the bottom of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the 1st step of the lighthouse image from the High Tide stamp set in Terracotta Tile Ink on top of the sand stamping off once. I stamped the 2nd step of the lighthouse image from High Tide stamp set in Terracotta Tile Ink over the first image. I stamped the water image from High Tide stamp set in Seaside Spray Ink, masking off the lighthouse, some in full strength and some stamped off once. I stamped the grass image from the High Tide stamp set in Pear Pizzazz Ink around the lighthouse. I stamped the birds from the High Tide stamp set above the lighthouse in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. I stamped the sentiment from Stampin’ Up Itty Bitty Birthdays Cling Stamp Set in Crumb Cake Ink below the sand so that you wouldn’t see it when the card was closed. I adhered the artwork panel to the inside of the Pear Pizzazz card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
For the card front I cut the birthday sentiment from the Well Written Dies out of a panel of Seaside Spray cardstock. I adhered it to the longer Whisper White strip, which I made into a banner using the Banner Triple Punch, using my Fine Tip Glue Pen. I stamped part of the bird image from the High Tide stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink to the left of the sentiment. I adhered the banner to the tp left side of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals, putting it right up to the scored edge.
I cut the wishes sentiment out from the Well Written Dies from a panel of Seaside Spray cardstock. I adhered it to the shorter Whisper White strip, which was also made into a banner using the Banner Triple Punch, using my Fine Tip Glue Pen. I stamped the birds from the High Tide stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink to the right of the sentiment. I adhered the banner to the bottom right card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals making sure it was right up to the scored edge
To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. My envelope seemed to get decorated just as much as my card this time. I stamped everything on the envelope front and flap the same as I did for my card.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my Fun Fold card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Subscribe for the August kit from July 11–August 10
What’s the old saying? Variety is the spice of life? At Paper Pumpkin, we like to mix things up and keep our customer’s crafting experience fresh and fun. We plan each kit carefully, allowing them to check as many creative boxes as possible while keeping our projects simple—so they can explore the world of paper crafting with confidence. With this in mind, we are bringing an elegant fall gift packaging kit to Paper Pumpkin fans this August.
Now, it’s no secret that our subscribers love cardmaking. So when we offer treat or gift packaging, you generally like to make a few card alternates with the kit. That’s why THIS month we decided to bring you the best of both worlds with the Gift of Fall Add-On Bundle. This coordinating product will allow you to turn your Gift of Fall gift packaging into cards in an easy and inexpensive way.
- The August kit includes 6 gift bags and 12 gift tags. To receive this kit you must subscribe by August 10.
- The Gift of Fall Add-On Bundle is a separate purchase for those who would like to convert their August Paper Pumpkin kit into cards.
- The Gift of Fall Add-On Bundle card designs offer a great sneak of the designs and elements to come in the August kit.
- Once you have completed the August kit, you will have extra kit components so you can easily combine them with the add-on without having to purchase additional kits.
- Just as you would with any other Stampin’ Up! product, you will need to purchase the add-on bundle via OEX or the online store. You will not be able to add it to a Paper Pumpkin subscription purchase.
- The price for the add-on bundle is $10.00 usd/$13.00 cad and is available for Paper Pumpkin subscribers only. This add-on is available beginning August 1, while supplies last!
