Category: Fun Fold

Yay, it’s your bday!

Howdy peeps! It’s Saturday and I hope you have something fun planned this weekend and you’ll be able to stay cool while doing it! I have one more awesome ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you created with the August 2024 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. I am totally digging all the papers, stickers and items in the upgrades this month… the colors and coordination are amazing!

There are a gazillion versions of the slider card out there and I’ve been looking at them on Pinterest and YouTube. I’ve made several over the years with a hidden message pop-up feature, penny sliders with tracks, and waterfall cards to name a few. The version I’m sharing today is slightly different in that it’s flat and won’t require extra postage to mail. I used papers and stickers from the sticker sheet along with chipboard bits from the upgrades. I’m including instructions in the Freebies section of my blog HERE if you’re interested in learning how to make this card.

I cut the card base from CutCardStock Raspberry Ice cardstock along with several arched die cuts (in graduating sizes) cut from coordinating papers in the kit with the Scrapbook.com Nested A2 Arches die set. I embellished the front panels with stickers from the collection and chipboard bits from the upgrades. I used Keep It Simple Back To Basics Mango Ribbon tied with Doodlebug Design Lily White Twine for the pull mechanism. Like the other versions, as you pull upwards, you expose a hidden message underneath.

I added another arched die cut to the back with a sentiment from the sticker sheet in the kit.

It’s a dog’s life

Hey everybody! Happy Monday – I hope you had a great weekend! Today is World Photography Day and I’m sharing a Keep It Simple DT inspiration project featuring a photo of our pup and items from our Max and Daisy Collection to celebrate the day! This flip flap shutter card is all about our girl, Tuffy, who will be a year old on October 13th. She’s a spoiled Forkie (Frenchie + Yorkie) and the cutest pup ever! I discovered this fun fold online several months ago, watched several videos, and settled on THIS video to learn how to make it. I’ve added the instructions to the Freebie section of my blog HERE if you’d like to learn how to make it. Despite it’s complex look, it really is not that hard. I enjoyed watching it come together!

I cut the card base and flaps from CutCardStock Lessebo Bubble Gum Pink cardstock, and layering panels from the Keep It Simple Max and Daisy Collection Pack and Back To Basics Rose 12×12 Collection Pack. I printed the photo of Tuffy on glossy photo paper, trimmed it and cut it into three sections. I chose a sentiment from the ephemera in the Max and Daisy Collection Pack, and added a mini puffy sticker and a half-circle pull tab to the left side of the frame. I created this using a Stitched Circles Nested Die that I cut in half and added letters from the Clementine Collection Stickers.

I added two more sentiments and a ball from the ephemera sheet in the Max and Daisy Collection Pack, which completed the card. Here are angled and overhead shots with the flaps open.

7/27/24 Weekly Favorite at Splitcoast Stampers!

Hi friends! A big ol’ Happy Friday to you! I’m thrilled to share another ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project with you today created with the awesome July 2024 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. I love all the coordinating beachy prints in this month’s collection and created a faux center step card featuring a journaling card included in the patterned papers. It’s totally amazing watching a simple card like this one come to life in just a few minutes! My inspiration for this fun fold came from Beccy Muir’s blog HERE when I visited a while back but I made some adjustments to the dimensions to make it an A2 size.

I cut the two pieces for the card base from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock along with layering panels from coordinating prints in the collection. I trimmed a journaling card for the front and fussy cut a sentiment and seashell from other journaling cards which I popped up on foam squares. The finishing touch on the front was the addition of a few gemstones and pearls.

I cut the inside panel from Solar White cardstock, embellished it with a leftover piece of patterned paper used on the front, and added a clear sticker from the upgrades. I adhered a panel of patterned paper to the back to give it a more finished look.

hello Summer fun fold

Hey everybody! Happy Thursday – we’re getting close to Friday so that means another week has bit the dust! I have another awesome ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with the July 2024 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. I am totally loving all the summery and beachy feels this month’s kit has to offer. You know I love me some fun folds so I made a wiper card featuring papers and stickers along with a chipboard piece and clear sticker from the upgrades.

This is one of my all-time favorite fun folds and I actually have an SVG cut file for a wiper card which I’ve used a couple times but I prefer this hand-cut version. If you prefer videos, my original inspiration came from Julie Davison’s video HERE a few years back; otherwise I’m sharing written instructions in the Freebies section of my blog HERE.

I cut the two pieces for the card base from CutCardStock Amazon Dark Teal along with layering panels from coordinating prints in the collection. I added a chipboard piece from the upgrades for the sentiment along with stickers from the sticker sheet and a fussy-cut crab to embellish the front panel.

And here is where the magic happens (the reason I love this fun fold so much) – when the sides of the card are pulled outward, up pops a fussy-cut seahorse!

I cut the back panel from Neenah Classic Crest Solar White cardstock and embellished it with clear stickers from the upgrades.

Merry Christmas Pocket Card

7/20/24 Weekly Favorite at Splitcoast Stampers!

Hey everybody, Happy Saturday! Dang, the time is really flying by… it really will be Christmas again before we know it! I’m delighted to share a Keep It Simple DT inspiration project created for our Christmas in July showcase. This is something I look forward to every July, as Christmas is my favorite holiday! I created an accordion pocket card featuring the super adorable Bizzy Hands Reindeer in a Stocking stamp set. I initially saw this fun fold on Pinterest which led me to Laura’s Inkyfingers Papercrafting blog post HERE. I put my own spin on this and added a white stitched rectangle as a backing for my focal image.

The card base was cut from CutCardStock Basis White cardstock along with layering panels from the Ruby and Jade 12×12 Collection Packs. The focal image is from the Bizzy Hands Reindeer in a Stocking stamp set, stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Basis White, colored with alcohol markers and fussy cut. I cut a backing for the focal image using the Stitched Rectangles Nested Dies and attached it to the angled portion of the front flap, popping the top portion of the focal image up on thin adhesive foam squares. I stamped a sentiment from the same Bizzy Hands stamp set and added several Back To Basics White Enamel Dots which completed the card front.

I left the inside plain and tucked a faux gift card into the pocket. This could also hold cash, tag or a sentiment card. So cute!

hello tea cup box card

Hi friends! Happy Monday – I hope you had a great weekend! Our new challenge is live this morning over at Ally’s Angels and I’m delighted to share my DT inspiration project for Challenge #84. Our challenges are always ‘anything goes’ so come on over and play with us! I created an adorable tea cup box card that I sent to a friend to let her know I was thinking about her. I totally love how it turned out!

Using my Cricut Explore Air 2 and the SVG Cuts Tea Cup Box Card cut file, I cut the tea cup box card base from CutCardStock Twine cardstock and patterned paper layering panels from a floral paper in the Hot Off The Press Magnolia Blossoms 6×6 double-sided cardstock pack. The flowers were cut from Papertrey Ink Spring Rain cardstock and CutCardStock Pop Tone Lemon Drop and Kale Green cardstock. I cut the tag from Neenah Classic Crest Baronial Ivory cardstock, stamped a sentiment from the Stampin’ Up A Dozen Thoughts sentiment in Catherine Pooler Cove Blue ink, and anchored it with Hemptique Crafter’s Cord. I added some Eyelet Outlet 4mm blue pearls which completed the card front.

The back panel was also cut from Neenah Classic Crest Baronial Ivory cardstock. I stamped an additional sentiment from the Stampin’ Up A Dozen Thoughts stamp set in Catherine Pooler Cove Blue ink.

Hey everybody! Happy Monday – here’s wishing you a wonderful week! I’m up on the CutCardStock blog today with a tutorial for making a side step wedding card featuring our Lessebo Pitch Black and White cardstock. I totally love a black and white color combo with just a pop of color. B&W can be used for nearly any occasion but I think it’s most dramatic for a wedding card. I typically make center step cards for some reason so I made a side step card this time with standing panels which was a fun change!

I cut the card base and three standing panels from Lessebo Pitch Black cardstock along with layering panels from Lessebo White cardstock. I dry embossed the vertical panel on the left with the Cuttlebug Script Embossing Folder and tied a gray gingham ribbon. I stamped sentiments and images from the Stampin’ Up For The New Two stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on the three standing panels, adding just a little bit of color. The finishing touch was adding a few iridescent gemstones.

I added a panel to the back with an additional sentiment. I’ve included a side angle shot so you can see the construction. This is a fun one! ;)

You make me a happy camper

Hey everybody! Happy Saturday – I hope you have something fun planned this weekend! The weeks just keep whizzing by and it’s gonna be Christmas before know it! ;) I’m thrilled to share another Keep It Simple DT inspiration project created with our new KIS Cuts Camper (released about a week ago) and our KIS Cuts Wavy Borders! I am IN LOVE with these die sets and see so many possibilities! I made the other version of the double dutch door fun fold (with full doors beneath rather than half doors). This card could be used for a spouse’s birthday, Valentine, anniversary or love you ‘just because.’ To compliment these die sets, I once again pulled out papers, stamps and dies from other collections to decorate the inside panels.

I cut the card base from CutCardStock Twine 80# 12×12 cardstock. The fun part about this card is that it can be made any size – this one is 6″ square. I also cut a layering panel for the background from a cloud print in the Lumberjack 12×12 Collection Pack. I cut a variety of hills from coordinating prints in the Jade 12×12 Collection Pack using the Wavy Borders die set.

I cut the camper layers and pieces using papers from the Stars & Stripes 6×9 and 12×12 Collection Packs, Papertrey Ink Americana cardstock, CutCardStock Dolphin Gray and Pop Tone Black Licorice cardstock, a Neenah Classic Crest Solar White cardstock scrap, and Lumberjack 6×9 Collection Pack. I stamped a sentiment from the Lumberjack Camping Collection Stamps in Memento Tuxedo Black ink.

I cut panels for the inside doors from a plaid pattern in the Lumberjack 12×12 Collection Pack and added a stamped and die cut trail/camping sign (using the Lumberjack Camping Collection Stamps and Outline Dies). I cut the inside panels from a paper in the Stars & Stripes 12×12 Collection Pack, Papertrey Ink Americana cardstock and Solar White cardstock. The final touch was adding a stamped and die cut banner (using the Sent With Love Collection Stamps and Outline Dies).

USA – Land that I Love

Hey everybody! Happy Wednesday – I hope you’re having a great week! Happy (almost) 4th of July to all my friends in the States. I’m up on the CutCardStock blog today with a tutorial for making a slide and lock fun fold. Yep, I squeezed one more July 4th project in. This is a fun card to make and I also have the written instructions in the Freebies section of my blog HERE if you’d like to learn how to make it. My inspiration came from Lisa Curcio’s blog originally but I ended up putting my own spin on it. And I couldn’t resist using Keep It Simple Sprinkles and items from the new Stars & Stripes Collection which really complimented the cardstock! ;)

I cut the card base and a circle from Lessebo Misty Blue cardstock along with layering panels from coordinating prints in the Keep It Simple Stars & Stripes 12×12 Collection Pack. I gathered a couple die cuts from the KIS Stars & Stripes Die Cut Pieces and set everything aside to work on the shaker.

I made the shaker using Lessebo Misty Blue cardstock, a striped print in the KIS Stars & Stripes 12×12 Collection Pack, and the KIS Stitched Squares Nested Dies. The shaker mix consisted of five varieties of KIS Sprinkles. I stamped the girl gnome from the KIS Stars & Stripes Gnome of the Brave Collection Stamps on Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock, colored it with a variety of markers, and cut it with the coordinating Outline Die. I adhered the gnome to the shaker with 3D foam squares.

I cut the slide and lock track into the card base using my Fiskars SureCut paper trimmer. I affixed the shaker to the left side of the card base with 3D foam squares and the die cut circle on the back side. I added the two banner die cuts and a few enamel dots to the card front. The finishing touch was adding a couple small stars punched from Lessebo Dawn Maroon and Lessebo White cardstock.

I cut the inside panel from 80# Solar White and embellished it with a narrow strip of Lessebo Dawn Maroon cardstock and a leftover strip of the hearts and stars paper used on the front. I stamped a sentiment from the KIS Gnome of the Brave Collection Stamps in Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I added a couple stamped and colored hearts, and a star punched from Lessebo White cardstock.

Happy Birthday triple fold

Hi friends! How is everybody?! Hopefully you are not scorching! I can’t believe how hot it is in some areas of the US – it’s really scary. Our new challenge is live this morning over at Christmas [or not] BINGO Challenges and I’m super stoked to share my DT inspiration project for CBC #8 – Anything Goes with Featured BINGO Card. I went with Column G this time and used pink, plaid/check/gingham, square and buttons on my birthday card. This is another version of the triple fold (there are several out there) and my inspiration came from THIS tutorial a few years back at Splitcoast Stampers.

I cut the card base and belly band from CutCardStock Basis Natural 80# cardstock along with layering panels from the Keep It Simple 6×9 Rose Collection Pack. Using the Spellbinders Lyrical Layered Florals stamp set, I stamped the image and sentiment on scrap pieces of Basis Natural in Catherine Pooler Garden Party, Sage, It’s A Girl, and Be Mine inks, and cut them with the coordinating Spellbinders Lyrical Layered Florals dies.

I added squares cut with the Spellbinders Classic Squares Large & Small dies along with Buttons Galore & More Pink Grapefruit buttons to satisfy those requirements on the BINGO card.

I cut the inside panel from Basis Natural also and embellished it with leftover strips of paper used on the front. I stamped a sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Birthday Blossoms stamp set and layered the panel on paper from the Rose collection pack.
