Yesterday I mentioned I was using some of the wonderful products from the Last Chance List that are still available. My Fun Fold card for today uses the Adventurous Sky Bundle. I love Fun Folds and this one is a great Pop Up type. Plus the card layout will work with any stamp set.
STAMPS & DIES
This fun stamp set is the Adventurous Sky. The stamp set is gone from the Last Chance list since I checked, but the Dies are still available and the DSP as well. The front sentiment, which I love, is from the stamp set. And is die cut using a Die from the Cheerful Daisies Die set. These Dies are on the Last Chance List as well, but still available. The stitching and the edge trim are so cute.
The inside airplane is stamped and then colored using Stampin’ Blends. I Die cut it with the matching Die set. (The Dies cut several of the planes from the DSP also.) And the inside sentiment is from the set.
PAPERS
The card colors all come from the DSP. It is the Take To The Sky Designer Series Paper. And it is not retiring , but is currently on Low Inventory. I decided the card base should be Night of Navy to match the large DSP sheet on the front. A layer of Basic White helps that piece to pop . The angled plane piece on front is one of the sheets also. There is one sheet that has six or eight tag size designs. This is one of those. And the copper DSP strip is to help match the plane.
The inside is a piece of Basic White with a simple method cut from the folded center that pops out to hold the plane and sky. That little strip I added of sky is also from the DSP.
EXTRAS
There are two Extras today. The Jute Twine around the top adds some texture to a simple area of the card. It is from the 2023-2025 InColor Jute Trim. This is the Boho Blue twine. Since those colors are retiring, it is on the Last Chance List as well. And the bling for today is very simple. I placed a single bling from the 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls on the sentiment.
MEASUREMENTS
This layout is one I see myself repeating quite often. Any stamped image that will look good popped up on the inside will work. Or with the simple matchbook design, it can be more of a plain card without a pop up. I cased this card from Sunny Day Stampin’.
The card base measures 9 3/4 X 3 3/4 scored at 5 1/4. The taller half is the back of the card. Then the top section measures 4 1/4 X 2 1/2 and is scored at 1 1/4. The taller half of the base fits, centered, into the folded center of this piece to create the matchbook.
For the inside piece, Basic White is cut to measure 3 3/4 X 9 3/4 and is scored at 5. Again the taller section is the back. Now fold this and place the fold on your paper trimmer. cut a 3/4 ” slit through the folded card stock, making sure it cuts through both pieces, at 1 1/2 and 2. This pushes out and becomes the pop up holder.
The DSP layers for my card are 3 1/2 X 4 1/4 for the blue and white large front piece. Then 1 X 4 for the matchbook top. And the DSP with the plane on the front is 1 1/4 X 2 1/2.
