Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Symphony for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning stamping friends, welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. HAPPY SPRING! My Crocuses are blooming, my Daffodils are starting to pop up, and I’ve even seen the start of my tulips. Now if the temps here would get a little warmer it would feel like spring too. I have so much yard clean-up to do, but it’s just too cold to go out and do it, plus the ground is still a frozen.

I have a quick masculine card for you today. I always struggle with those cards. There are a couple bundles coming in the new catalog that might just make them a little easier to make.

Stampin’ Up! Banner Sayings Bendy Front for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday the 13th morning stamping friends. How was your week? We arrived in Long Beach yesterday afternoon and have been very busy since we arrived. That’s one thing about OnStage that I love, we’re on the go constantly. It was great getting together with the team members last night, seeing people that we’ve only seen online and chatting. We all went out to dinner together and had a great time. We’ve got lots planned for today already, can’t wait to get all the sneak peeks.

Today I have a quick fun fold card that looks a lot harder than it actually is. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Banner Sayings Bundle along with the Hobby Haven Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin’ Up! The Right Words Triple ‘Z’ Fold Card

Good Monday morning stamping friends and welcome to a new week and the 1st week of March!! I hope you all had a great weekend. We had a bit of a tease here in NJ, it was in the 50’s on Saturday but then only the 30’s on Sunday.

I have a triple ‘Z’ fold card for you today. “Z” fold cards are the easiest fun fold, but when you add 2 more folds in, it could be a little tricky. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! The Right Words Fun Fold 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! the Right Words Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Inspiring Imperfections Bundle, Kintsugi Inspirations Specialty Designer Series Paper, Spotlight on Nature Dies and 2 3/8″ Circle Punch for my card today.

Stampin' Up! The Right Words Fun Fold 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Adhere the panels of Kintsugi Inspirations DSP to the coordinating Petal Pink card bases. Do not put any DSP on the center panel of the 2nd card base.

Stampin' Up! The Right Words Fun Fold 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

You can mix up and use however many different patterns of DSP that you would like.

Stampin' Up! The Right Words Fun Fold 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

From a panel of Basic Whtie, using the 2 3/8″ Circle Punch, cut the circle. Stamp the sentiment from The Right Words stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on the panel of Basic White. Cut the sentiment out using the Inspiring Imperfections Dies. On the top of the small square of Basic Whtie, stamp the sentiment from The Right Words stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink. Stamp the flower image from the Inspiring Imperfections stamp set in Petal Pink Ink over the sentiment, stamping off once on scrap paper. Using the Spotlight on Nature Dies, cut the Gold Foil Paper. From a panel of Kintsugi Inspirations DSP, cut the vases and flower using the Inspiring Imperfections Dies.

Stampin' Up! The Right Words Fun Fold 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

Adhere the small sentiment square to the center of the 2nd card base panel. Adhere the 2nd card base panel to the large card base, with the 4 1/8″ side to the left, lining up the bottom corners on both sides.

It’s time to cash in those Bonus Coupons (starting February 3), so Tara Carpenter and I are offering a Free Online Zoom Class for February.  We will be creating 6 different Fun Fold cards; we’re hoping to show you how easy some fun folds can be.  This class will be FREE with a $50 purchase from my Online Store.   We will not be sharing the products we are using since the cards we make live will most likely be using new products that will be available in March (a week after the class).

The class requirements:

  • Visit my Online Store and place a $50 or more order before tax and shipping and after coupon codes.
  • Once you have made the purchase, fill out the Google Form HERE and submit.

What you will receive:

  • Zoom class with complete step by step instructions to complete each card as we go.
  • PDF with detailed directions and photos
  • A Link to the recorded class after we are done so you can watch it again and make more cards.

A week before the class I will send you the complete PDF of the cards so you can cut all your cardstock gather your supplies, so you are ready to go.  We will NOT be cutting cardstock or doing any die cutting live since all the cards will be different.  Everyone’s cards will be unique since you will pick which color cardstock and ink you want to use along with the Designer Series Paper, Ribbon & Embellishments for each card.

The class will be held on Sunday February 22nd from 1pm – 4pm Eastern Time via Zoom.  This will allow everyone all over the United States to participate live!
