Best Friends Forever

Hey everybody, Happy Hump Day! I hope you’re having a good week. I’m up on the Love From Lizi blog today with a tutorial for making a double flap fun fold featuring our Happy Days papers, Best Friends Forever stamps, and yellow pinstripe and black mini heart peel-offs – all from our July release. I also used an additional stamp set, a couple die sets and some gemstones from the store to make this card come to life. There seem to be quite a few versions of the double flap fun fold out there but this one is my favorite.

I cut the card base and second flap element from 12×12 Cardstock Shop Lead Encore Textured cardstock along with layering panels from coordinating prints in the Happy Days 6×6 Patterned Paper Pack. I also cut two labels (using the Stitched Label Nested Cutting Dies) from 12×12 Cardstock Shop Pink Champagne Encore Textured cardstock. Next I cut two circles (using the Stitched Circle Nested Cutting Dies) from 80# Solar White and one from the Lead cardstock. I added several white gemstones from the Tropical Escapes Mix Size Gems.

I stamped a sentiment and images from the Best Friends Forever stamp set in Catherine Pooler Black Jack and Twilight inks, and partially colored the images with a Blush Copic Ciao alcohol marker. I embellished the striped panel on the front of the second flap with Yellow Pinstripe and Black Mini Heart Peel-Offs.

I cut the inside panel from 80# Solar White cardstock and embellished it with a leftover strip of the dotted patterned paper from the Happy Days paper pack. I stamped a sentiment from the Simply Amazing stamp set and layered the panel inside the second flap. If you want more details, be sure to see my tutorial on the Love From Lizi blog! ;)

Crazy cat lady and crafting junkie! We care for 15 feline rescues and just added a Forkie pup to the tribe (Frenchie + Yorkie)! I’m addicted to stamping and love making cards, ATCs, and 3-D projects (especially paper shoes, paper purses and mini albums). I also dabble in mixed media, art journaling, altered art and custom jewelry. If you’re looking for me, I’ll either be in my studio or getting some kitty or puppy lovins! ;)
