Fun Fold cards are my favorite to make. And cute animals are a close second in favorites. So today I joined the two using Christmas Friends Bundle.
STAMPS
The star of this card is the Christmas Friends Bundle and this adorable Moose. He looks so happy ice skating through the woods with his warm scarf. I stamped him using Early Espresso Ink and then colored with Stampin’ Blends. All of the colors are in the Supply List at the bottom of the post. The trees and stars are also part of the stamp set and matching Dies. The garland at the bottom, as well as the circle, are also part of the Die set. There are a lot of goodies here that you should check out.
There are two additional stamp sets for the sentiments. This front one is from the Humble Home stamp set. I love the small and simple handwriting look to the Merry Christmas. And the inside sentiment is from the Peaceful Season stamp set.
PAPERS
The DSP is where all of the other papers were pulled from. These pretty snowflakes are from the Snowy Scenes Designer Series Paper. This sheet has the snowglobes on the reverse side. From this I pulled the Garden Green as the card base. The small card is Pool Party which is also part of the DSP.
EXTRAS
The bling for this card is a bit brighter than usual. At least it stands out in the photo very well. They are a trio of the Earth Tone Shimmer Gems from the Mini Catalog. I thought the darker green would pop better and highlight the card base. And I believe they do.
Fun Fold Directions
To create this card you begin with a piece of cardstock measuring 5 1/2 X 8 1/2. Score it at 4 1/4. Then with the 8 1/2 along the top and the score line down the center, place the score line on the trimmer cutting channel. Hold that in place and rotate the cardstock so that the left side bottom point is also in the cutting channel. Cut that angle off. Next is the DSP. The inside panel measures 4 X 5 1/4. Cut two of these. One goes on the inside of the card. The other gets cut at an angle to go on the front of the card. Cut from the top right to the bottom left.
The small card measures 3 X 8 and is scored at 4. And the inside Basic White measures 2 3/4 X 3 3/4. Here are photos of the two other views of the card.
When the small card is added, align it with equal borders as you would any layer. Just ensure the front flap will close. I suggest doing a dry fit before adding adhesive. Please let me know if you have any questions.
