SU DEMO FUN FOLD BLOG HOP MARCH 2024

Welcome to the monthly SU Demos Fun Fold Blog Hop Group  with Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators!!

We have a great lineup of talented crafters for you today, who enjoy creating fun folds.  If you love fun folds, I am hoping you find inspiration and enjoyment so much that you will be inspired to join us next time.  You are in for a treat with all the talented demonstrators participating. You can find that list  located at the end of the post about my card creation. 

The card I am sharing today is created using Stampin’ Up! Meadow Dies and Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper.  I suppose you can call this Fun Fold a double flap Fun Fold.  Maybe there is another name so if you know what it is called, please let me know.  Card cuts are at the end of the post.

  • Start with a 4-1/4″ x 11″ Basic White cardstock card base.
  • Score at 5-1/2″ 
  • Cut a 4″ x 5-1/4″  piece of Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper.
  • Cut two pieces of Basic White cardstock 3-1/2″ x 4″
  • Score both pieces 1/2″ on the 4″ side
  • Fold and burnish the two pieces well.
  • Using adhesive of choice put the adhesive on the 1/2″ score edge.
  • Adhere the two pieces as the photo above shows, the 1/2″ scored edge goes on the back side of the Designer Series Paper so it will be hidden when the piece is adhered to the card base.
  • Adhere the piece of Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper to the card base.
  • Using dies from Stampin’ Up! Meadow Dies die cut flowers from Basic White cardstock as shown in the above photo.
  • Adhere the flowers to the two flaps using Stampin’ Dimensionals and Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
  • Stamp a greeting from Stampin’ Up! By My Side on a scrap of Basic White cardstock.
  • Make a loopy bow, adhering to the flap with a glue dot.
  • Adhere the greeting over the bottom of the flowers using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • Stamp another greeting, this one from Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Expressions stamp set in Memento Back ink on a scrap of Basic White cardstock.
  • Die cut the greeting using a die from Perennial Postage Dies. You will have to do some adjusting to get it down to the size shown here.
  • Pop over the bottom of the flowers using  Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • Open the second flap to reveal a sentiment adhered to the Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper.  A sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Timeless Arrangements stamp set is stamped in Memento Black ink on a piece of Basic White cardstock.
  • Using a die from Perennial Postage dies die cut the sentiment.
  • Adhere the sentiment to the Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper using Multipurpose Liquid Glue or adhesive of choice.
  • On a piece of Basic White cardstock stamp sentiments from Stampin’ Up! Beach Day stamp set and Stampin’ Up! Lazy Days stamp set (this one soon to retire).
  • Adhere a strip of Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper to the bottom of the panel.
  • Adhere the panel to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue or adhesive of choice. 

A Basic White envelope gets a piece of  Countryside Inn Designer Paper adhered to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

If you love card making as a hobby, you can still be a demonstrator and get that discount to help get more card making items,  or you can be like I was and buy Stampin’ Up! products for 10 years before I became wise enough to become a demonstrator to get the discount.  When I think of all the stamping products that 20% would have brought over those 10 years, I cringe.
