I saw the card I have to share today on a reel from Little Lemon Press. Immediately I knew I had to try this Fun Fold. It is a combination of everything I love. There is a Fun Fold, DSP, and then some of my ideas to complete it. And did I mention it is actually very simple!! This is a triple win. Especially if you have a stash of DSP in your craft space. I will not even ask for a show of hands to that question!!
The paper itself is a winner as we all have said. This card has three layers of it. Next is number two, which is a simpler layer and could have some creativity added to it as well.
I used the simpler pattern for this second view. And then the inside is the final view.
There is more of the beautiful paper to see here as well.
Papers
Obviously the DSP is the star of this card. Especially since there is a variety of it. This is the Moonlit Floral Designer Series Paper. I chose one of the extra special sheets for the front. Not that they are not all gorgeous. Then the inside parts of the card is just one sheet that you see both sides of. I decided to use the side I consider to be the prettier one for the big inside view. And as I mentioned under the photos, I think some additional details could be added to the green on green layer.
The card base is Basic White. I used the normal weight, not the Thick since there were going to be layers of DSP on all parts. Then the inside sentiment area is also Basic White. I did use a small piece of Golden Glow cardstock for the front sentiment layer. It was perfect to match those little golden flowers.
There are also leaves of two of the greens included in the paper. I chose Mossy Meadow for the curly leaf. And then Old Olive for the fern looking leaf. They add so much texture to the card hanging off of the sentiment layer.
Stamp Bundle
The Stamps and Dies are the Fern & Flora Bundle. There are some sweet sentiments and then leaves and flowers, with a few butterflies in the stamp set. Then the Dies are extra detailed on the leaves. And there is a Die for the butterflies I used as well. Plus the sentiment frame is the perfect size. It has just enough of that “ticket” corner to add detail.
Extras
The Extras are minimal. You could count the butterflies as Extras since I have them floating around on the front and the one on the inside sentiment area. Even though I left that without a sentiment. I felt it be a Thankful card I would write my own message there. So the Bling is the real Extra. I went back to an all time favorite and used Rhinestones. You can never go wrong with Rhinestones. I added one on the head of each of the butterflies, except the one not die cut on the inside. A little bit of glow for this night shaded paper.
Measurements
The Little Lemon Press reel I saw included the measurements. But I will give the ones I used. The card base is Basic White cut 7 1/4 X 5 1/2 and scored at 3″. For the DSP layer on the front it is 3 X 5 1/2. The inside large DSP sheet measures 7 1/2 X 5 1/2 and is scored at 3 1/4. I cut the Basic White inside to 3 X 5 1/4. And the Golden Glow behind the die cut sentiment measures 2 1/2 x1 1/4. Please give this one a try. I think you will love it.
