Hey everybody, Happy Monday! I hope you had an awesome weekend! I’m delighted to share a fun fold for Keep It Simple that I created with our new Wander Collection. If you haven’t seen it yet, you’re in for a real treat. I used the 6×9 Collection Pack, Collection Stamps and Outline Dies to create this pop out fun fold. And for the life of me, I cannot remember exactly where I saw this fold and it’s driving me nuts. I think it was Pinterest; I will continue searching and when/if I find it, I will update this post. It’s definitely a fun one and I would love to share the link! Update: I found the link! It was on Jolanda’s Inque Spot Studio blog HERE and I made one change. I cut the insert at 5-1/4″ x 8″ rather than 4″ x 8″ as noted in her post.

I cut the card base from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock along with layering panels, strips and stitched circles from assorted prints in the Wander 12×12 Collection Pack, Jade 12×12 Collection Pack and 80# Solar White. I cut the pop out panel from 12×12 Cardstock Shop Mint Chocolate Chip cardstock. I stamped sentiments and images from the Wander Collection Stamps, colored the images with Copic Ciao alcohol markers, and cut them with the coordinating Outline Dies. I fussy cut the front sentiment as there isn’t a coordinating die for that one. I stenciled clouds using our KIS Clouds Stencil and Ranger stormy sky distress ink, and created a hill using our KIS Cuts Wavy Borders dies.

As I always say, the most fun with projects like this is the assembly. It was such a joy watching it come to life. And it sure packs a punch when opening! I love how it turned out!
