Welcome to this month’s Stamptastic Friends Blog Hop.

This Month’s Theme is a Fun Fold Card.

This month I am going to show you how to make a Stand Up fun fold card. I first taught this card in one of my Face to Face classes a year or so ago and it went down a storm as you can use so many different designer series papers to make each one different.

As you can see each one looks different depending on which designer series papers you use.

How to make a Stand Up Fun Fold Card

First of all I cut my piece of Daffodil Delight card stock in half along the long edge. Then with the longer edge at the top of the trimmer I scored it at 5.5cm and 8cm. Next I turned the card stock 180 degrees and scored again at 5.5cm and 8cm. I then cut my mat layers using Sweet Sorbet card stock and Bee Mine designer series papers. Which I then stuck onto the card front.

How to make the Bee topper for my Stand Up Fun Fold Card.

First of all I punched out a circle out of Sweet Sorbet card stock using the circle punch and another circle from the honey comb designer series paper using the smaller circle punch. I then stuck these on top of each other. After that I stamped the bumble bee body onto Basic White using Daffodil Delight ink and Memento Black ink. I then stamped his face again using Black Memento ink before punching out using the Bee Builder punch. Next I stamped some wings onto Basic White card stock using Black Memento ink again and punched it out. I stuck the wings onto the underneath of his body before adding the bee to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

How I finished my Stand Up Fun Fold Card.

I stuck two Basic White mat layers onto the back flaps to write on.

For the sentiment I stamped ‘You’ll always bee the one for me’ onto Petal Pink card stock using Black Memento ink. I then cut a mat layer using Sweet Sorbet card stock and stuck the sentiment onto it. Finally I added the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Lastly I added three Sweet Sorbet flowers from the Adhesive Backed Hearts and Flowers.

I do hope you have enjoyed seeing how I made this Stand Up Fun Fold Card and how by using different designer series papers you can have a totally different look.

Until next time, keep stampin n crafting,
