Good Friday morning stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. Are you starting to make plans for the weekend yet? I’ll be working all day tomorrow. I’m getting back into my normal routine from being sick for the last week and a half.

Today’s card I made on YouTube Live 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, just above the supply list, along with the link to my YouTube channel. The idea for my card came from my team leader Amy Koenders who made a similar card a couple weeks ago. Her card used the DSP as the trifold instead of another piece of cardstock. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Delicate Forest Bundle along with the Meandering Meadows 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper and the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Heartfelt Hellos Cling Stamp Set for my fun fold card today.

I started by cutting a Granny Apple Green card front using the large Delicate Forest Dies. From a panel of Garden Green, I cut 2 of the leaf dies from the Delicate Forest Dies. I cut 2 of the small leaf dies from a panel of Lemon Lime Twist using the Delicate Forest Dies. I adhered the die cut pieces to the back of the large die cut card front using Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Delicate Forest Photopolymer Stamp Set in Garden Green Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the Delicate Forest Dies. I folded the card front on the 1/4″ score line and added Tear & Tape. I adhered the card front to the left side of the Granny Apple Green card base.

I cut 1/16″ off the left side of the card front so that the card would fold flat once the trifold was created. I adhered a panel of Meandering Meadow DSP to the Granny Apple Green card front using Liquid Glue. I added a few Adhesive-Backed Dragonflies and Birds to the card front.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Heartfelt Hellos stamp set in Garden Green Ink on a panel of Basic White. I stamped the tall tree image from the Delicate Forest stamp set in Granny Apple Green Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered a strip of the Meandering Meadow DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Garden Green mat then to the inside of the Granny Apple Green card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the tall tree image from the Delicate Forest stamp set in Granny Apple Green Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Meandering Meadow DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my trifold card and will give it a try. I hope you will CASE this card and please feel free to post it in the comments of my Facebook page under my post. I’d love to see your take it. The list of measurements are below if you’d like to stamp along while watching the video. You can watch my video on my YouTube Channel Here.

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:

1. 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….
2. 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.
