Good Friday morning my stamping friends welcome to my fun fold Friday. I hope you all had a good week. Do you have plans for the weekend yet? I’ll be at work all day tomorrow as usual. It’s supposed to be nice out, so maybe it will be super busy, and the day will just fly by.
Today’s card I made on my Facebook Live video on Wednesday. If you were able to join me or watched the replay, thank you. If you’d like to watch my video and stamp along, the measurements are below along with the links to my Facebook page and my YouTube channel. This is not really a ‘fun fold’ card today, but I’m considering it a fancy ‘fold’. Here is my card for today.
I used the Stampin’ Up! Dainty Delight Cling Stamp Set along with the Dainty Delight Dies, Lazy Days Dies and the new Nested Essentials Dies for my card today.
I started by stamping the small grass image from the Dainty Delight stamp set in Lemon Lime Twist Ink along the bottom front of the Basic White Thick card base. I opened the card base and cut 6 – 1/2″ strips from the front of the card base using my Paper Trimmer. I folded the card base and set 4 of the strips down lining them up evenly to make the fence. I placed a block on them to hold them in place to adhere them. I took 1 of the strips and adhered it towards the bottom using tiny drops of Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I then adhered the center strip the same way. I cut an extra strip of Basic White for the top and adhered it closer to the top the same way. I trimmed off the excess using Paper Snips.
From a panel of Bubble Bath cardstock, I cut the porch top die from the Lazy Days Dies. From a panel of Lemon Lime Twist, I cut the vine from the Dainty Delight Dies. I adhered one of the vines to the top of the card front using small amounts of Multipurpose Liquid Glue on the leaves. I adhered the porch top die to the top of the card front. From a panel of Fresh Freesia cardstock, I cut 5 of the flower dies from the Dainty Delight Dies to make Wisteria. I adhered the flowers to the vine using Stampin’ Dimensionals. From a panel of Basic White I cut the 2 daisy dies from the Dainty Delight Dies. I cut the daisy centers from a panel of Lemon Lolly cardstock. I adhered the flower centers to the daisies using Glue Dots. I adhered 2 more of the vines to the card front. I adhered the daisies to the vines using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I stamped the sentiment from the Dainty Delight stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White. I cut the sentiment out using the smallest rectangle die from the Nested Essentials Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added some Brushed Brass Butterflies around the flowers and Tinsel Gems Three Pack to the sentiment.
On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from Dainty Delight stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the larger floral image from the Dainty Delight stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the side of the panel. I colored the image in using Bubble Bath, Fresh Freesia and Lemon Lime Twist Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Bubble Bath mat then to the inside of the Basic White Thick cardbase.
To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the floral images from the Dainty Delight stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front and flap. I colored the images using Bubble Bath, Fresh Freesia and Lemon Lime Twist Stampin’ Blends Markers.

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well. I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.
Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater. And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!
But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:
- You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly! OR….
- If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.
