Today’s card is another Fun Fold, but a common and easy one.  It has the added bonus of assisting the card is standing up.  I am showcasing the Color & Contour Bundle for the first time as well.

The Color & Contour Bundle is a great combination of flowers, filler for the flowers, awesome sentiments, along with floral and scalloped dies.  It is on page 98 of the Annual Catalog in case you have missed it.

 

Stampin' Up!, Color and Contour, Hand penned, Jackie Beers

 

I love the clean look of this card.  Have you seen the Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper?  it is a “pen and ink look ” that has been watercolored.  That is how I think of it anyway.  I pulled the Night of Navy card base from the paper, as I did for the other colors.

The stamped flower is colored using Pale Papaya and Just Jade Stampin’ Blends.  The scalloped White layer is cut using the matching Dies from the Bundle.  I backed that with a piece of Just Jade cardstock.

Here is a view of the open card.

 

 

From the standing view, you can see that the DSP pieces are on the left front and then on the inside right.  The piece is cut 4 X 5 1/2 and then cut into 2 pieces that are 2 X 5 1/2.  The front of the card is scored in half and “Z” Folded.  The front folded back section could be adhered to the other side.  But I like how the card easily stands as a “Z” Fold.

Measurements:

  • Card base is Night of Navy cut 5 1/2 X 8 1/2, scored at 4 1/4 and 6 3/8.
  • Fold on the score lines and make a Z fold.
  • DSP is 4 X 5 1/2, and cut into 2 pieces that are 2 X 5 1/2
  • Adhere one to the folded back section of the front and one to the right edge of the inside section.
  • Just Jade is cut 4 3/4 X 3 1/2 and adhered only to the front section
  • The front flower is stamped in the center of a White piece cut 4 3/4 X 3 1/2
  • Die cut the White piece using the 2nd largest of the Dies
  • Adhere to the Just Jade layer
  • The inside sentiment layer is White cut to 4 X 2 1/2.
  • The sentiment is from the stamp set, as is the flower bud.
  • Adhere close to the folded edge on the inside layer.
