Who doesn't love making or receiving a fun fold like this!!
I started this card with a Just Jade card base measuring 5 & 1/2" x 11". I score this on the long side at 1 &1/4", 3 & 3/8", 7 & 5/8" and 9 & 3/4". Then you fold on each of the score marks in fan fold fashion to give you the base for your card! You now need to cut 2 pieces of the Bloom Where You Are Planted DSP @ 1 & 1/8" x 5 & 3/8". These are the two pieces that will go on the smaller flaps. You also need 4 pieces of DSP cut at 2" x 5 & 3/8". I used two different patterns for these. Two go on the card base next to the smaller pieces and the other two go on the corresponding section on the back of the card. These two will show on the front when the card is folded.
For the inside piece I cut a piece of basic white at 4 & 1/8" x 5 & 3/8". I then stamped my greeting and fussy cut my plant from the Bloom Where You Are Planted DSP that is part of this suite!!! So easy and adds so much!
The cinnamon cider belly band measures 1" x 11". After wrapping that and fastening it around my folded card base, I then cut a piece of basic white out using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I stamped my greeting towards the bottom of this piece and then die cut the flower pot and plant out of the sheets in the Bloom Where You Are Planted DSP!
I love the way this card turned out.
I hope you enjoyed this card today!!

Halloween Is just around the corner and here are a few more quick and easy cards!!
These Halloween cards are made using the Frightfully Cute Bundle and the Cute Halloween 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper. Both available now in our July - December 2021 mini catalog!!
The measurements for this card are Flirty Flamingo card base at 5 & 1/2" x 8 & 1/2" and scored at 4 & 1/4". The basic black layer measures 5 &1/4" x 4". I cut the DSP to 5 & 1/8" x 3 & 7/8". I used a piece of the Black and White Gingham ribbon also found in the mini catalog. The greeting on the front of the card is heat embossed in black and then I added a couple of the Matte enamel dots to finish it off.
To finish the inside of the card and pull the entire card together I again added a layer of basic black measuring 5 & 1/4" x 4". The white layer measures 5 & 1/8" x 3 & 7/8" and was stamped with Happy Halloween to you from the stamp set.
Here is a video to show just how easy this card is!!!
This card was so quick and easy and with all the patterns ad colors in the DSP you can easily make many cards for this Halloween.
Welcome to out September 2021 Stampin' Stray Ducklings Blog Waddle!! Our theme this month is fall and Halloween! With 9 grandbabies I have to make a lot of Halloween cards and treats so I like to get started early!! I love how this card turned out!
This is an awesome bundle for Halloween. This Frightfully Cute Bundle (pictured below) is on page 52 of our August to December 2021 mini catalog. With this stamp set and die set you can complete almost any Halloween project you need to do. And as always you save 10% by buying the bundle!
Sometimes the cutest and easiest cards are made using DSP for your layers or accents. For this card I used the Cute Halloween 6x6 DSP found on page 51 of the mini catalog. I used the stamparatus to stamp the witch onto the DSP. The reason for this was so I could stamp it several times to make it darker and cover the lines in the DSP without having to line it up. The great thing about the stamparatus is that it stays in the same spot so you can stamp over and over and not have to worry about lining it up!!! As I have said before...in my opinion this is a must have tool!!!
Here are a list of the papers and measurements that I used for this card. I started with a Pumpkin Pie card base measuring 5 & 1/2" x 8 & 1/2" and scored at 4 & 1/4". My first layer was our basic white measuring 5 & 1/4" x 4". I cut two of these so I had a layer for the inside of my card too. The pieces of DSP were cut at 3 & 7/8" x 2 & 1/2". I also cut a strip of basic black 1/2" x 4" to cover the space between my DSP's. For die-cutting the spider web and the greeting with my Stampin' cut & emboss machine I used scrap pieces. To attach the greeting to the spider web and the web to the card I used stampin dimensionals.
I also finished my envelope by stamping a witch on the front of the envelope and covered the flap with another piece of the DSP. It helps to pull it all together and makes for a completed project! I hope you enjoyed my card!
