Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends. How has everyone’s week started off? I hope you are having a productive one.

I know it’s not Friday, but I have a simple fun fold card for you today. A couple weeks ago my team had an ARTisan Pizza Party on Facebook. If you were able to join in the fun, thank you. If you did join in you saw that I had a fun fold card demo. I thought I’d share the card with you today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Beauty of Tomorrow Cling Stamp Set along with the Blackberry Beauty Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card.

I started by scoring and folding an 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ Blackberry Bliss card base as 2 1/8″ & 4 1/4″.

I adhered 2 panels of the Blackberry Beauty Specialty DSP to Gold Foil mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the 2 layered panel to the Blackberry Bliss card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue as shown above.

On a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Beauty of Tomorrow stamp set in Blackberry Bliss Ink. I adhered the sentiment panel to a Gold Foil mat using Stampin’ Seal.

I put Stampin’ Dimensionals only on 1/2 of the layered panel and adhered it to the card front.

I added 2 Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the sentiment panel.

On the inside I adhered a panel of Blackberry Beauty Specialty DSP to a Gold Foil mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Blackberry Bliss card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. On a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Beauty of Tomorrow stamp set in Blackberry Bliss Ink. I stamped the floral image and the bird from the Beauty of Tomorrow stamp set in Blackberry Bliss Ink, stamping off once, by the sentiment. I adhered the sentiment panel to the inside of the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue making sure that it was behind the card front sentiment panel. I added another Rhinestone Basic Jewel just below the inside sentiment panel.

To complete my card I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I stamped the floral and bird images from the Beauty of Tomorrow stamp set in Blackberry Bliss Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the Blackberry Beauty Specialty DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!
