I hope you are as excited as I am about the launch of the 2025-2026 Annual Catalog today! I have my wish list ready to go and the alarm set. After today I will go back and update the Supply List for the recent posts that had new products to help you out.
My card today is Fun Fold that is a Double Box stand up card. This is one that I received as a swap from a fellow demonstrator, Angela Ball, at convention. I finally sat down and figured the measurements so I can share with you.
From this view you can see that it is dimensional and stands up.
This view shows the two overlapping boxes, and a close up of the DSP as well as the Dies.
STAMPS & DIES
The paper may be a star, but the Die set is a second star of the card. These layered Dies are from the Textured Notes Die set. They are part of theTextured Notes Bundle, which is where the sentiment is from. Each of the Dies has a different edging detail. That is unique and wonderful. I did not show the back of the card in photos. Since this is a stand up the card does not open. I have added a larger of the Die layers on the back, along with a sentiment and leaf, for your signature. This bundle is available in the Online Exclusives as part of the Botanical Textures Suite of products.
PAPERS
This beautiful black and white DSP is from the Botanical Textures Suite of Products and is named Botanical Textures Designer Series Paper. All of the sheets are black and white. Because of the simple black and white, I used Basic Black as the card base. Then to add another touch of color from the paper, I went with Smoky Slate as the sentiment layer. Of all of the grays in the collection, Smoky Slate seemed to match the best to the paper.
EXTRAS
The Extras on this card must begin with the Simply Scored scoring tool. I could not get by without my Simply Scored. I am not exact enough to score on the paper trimmer. I like having the edges to know my paper is in place. These measurements are not difficult, but need to be correct.
The second Extra is the single Bling. I used one of the Antique Pearls embellishments. But to match the grays of the paper, colored it with the Basic Black Stampin’ Blend. The pearl has sheen to it and that shows through the color.
MEASUREMENTS
This card base is 9 1/2 X 4 1/4 and is scored at 5 1/2, 6 1/2, 8, & 9. The DSP measures 3 3/4 X 4, 1 1/4 X 4, and 3/4 X 4. The DSP should be added prior to glueing the boxes. For the smaller box, you need card stock that is 5 1/2 X 3 1/2 and is scored at 3 3/4 & 4 3/4. This DSP is 3 1/2 X 3 1/4 and 3/4 X 3 1/4.
