Good Friday morning my stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. I hope everyone has had a wonderful week and are getting ready for the weekend. I’m sorry I missed doing my Fun Fold Friday live on Wednesday, but I’m still not doing well from the Covid. I don’t remember the last time I had so little energy and all I wanted to do was nap. Anyone that knows me, knows that I don’t nap unless I’m sitting on the beach listening to the seagulls and waves.

I made one of the quickest fun fold cards for today. This is one of my go-to fun folds when I want to make a quick one. It’s a book fold card. I also needed a square card for a challenge that I’m joining in on. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Framed Florets Bundle and the Stampin’ Up! Framed & Festive Cling Stamp Set along with the Subtle 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

My design is from Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #560.

My colors are from CAS Colours & Sketches Challenge #494.

I started by scoring and folding the card base as listed below. I adhered the binder part of the card together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the 3 panels of Subtle DSP to the 3 Rich Razzleberry mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panels to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Framed & Festive stamp set in Rich Razzleberry Ink. I cut the sentiment out using one of the frames from the Framed Florets Dies. On another panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the longer floral image from the Stampin’ Up! Framed Florets Photopolymer Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink twice. I cut the images out using the Framed Florets Dies. I colored the leaves using the Mint Macaron Stampin’ Blends Markers. I colored the flowers in using my Clear Wink of Stella Brush as a paint brush and my Rich Razzleberry Ink. I cut a few of the detailed leaves from the Framed Florets Dies from a panel of the White Glimmer Paper.

I adhered the frame to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the oval sentiment inside the frame using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the floral images to the framed using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the detailed leaves using a small amount of Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a few Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Framed & Festive stamp set in Rich Razzleberry Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the floral image from the Framed Florets stamp set in the corner of the panel in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image the same as I did for the card front. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Rich Razzleberry mat then to the inside of the Pear Pizzazz card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the floral image from the Framed Florets stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the image the same as I did for the card front. I adhered a panel of the Subtle DSP to the envelope flap.

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