IT IS FRIDAY & TIME FOR A FUN FOLD CARD & GIFT BOX

My fun fold card measures 4″x 4″ and folds four triangular sides into a closure.

When you see the card unfolded you will see the two lengths of Two Tone card that I overlapped and adhered together.

Each of triangles fold in to ensure the card closes.

All of the internal panels had white card added for lots of lovely Christmas messages.

The card front, insert and envelope have been decorated with the pre-cut elements.

The next project was inspired by Heather Forgan from Stapin’ Nellie.

This fun fold box uses the Happy Banner Dies for the lid, helping to create an interlocking closure.

After creating the card base and attaching the lid, I created the greeting panel. The opening for the Basic Beige Classic Ribbon was made using one of the Hole Punch Assortment punches.

The ribbon was threaded through and the greeting panel was attached using Stampin’ Dimensionals to the left-hand side of the lid.

Thank you Heather for the inspiration!

Thanks for popping by this week to check out the projects I have shared with you.

Next week, I will have some wonderful new projects to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

FRIDAY IS ALL ABOUT THE FUN OF A FUN FOLD CARD

Today I have a Square Pillar Card to share with you.

It really is an easy card to create and I hope that you make your own version of it.

The card does fold flat so that you can pop it into an envelope but then when you want it to stand, you just need to push the pillar into its square shape.

This is a great card to showcase coordinating designer series papers.

I used three different paper designs for this card.

The right hand panel lifts up to reveal more card – perfect for writing your greeting to its recipient.

The greeting was stamped in Lost Lagooon onto a piece of Basic White card. This was then adhered to a Pretty Peacock panel.

Before attaching the greeting panel, I took some of the leaf and flower card shapes, coloured them and then attached them, as you can see.

Finally, I tied a triple Linen Thread bow and secured it with a Mini Glue Dot.

I hope that you liked this week’s projects.

Next week I have some very special projects to share with you!

In late July I was asked if I would create a 10 minute video highlighting a stamp set for the Demonstrator Plannning Place and was delighted to say yes.

This video was shared with other demonstrators this week and now I am preparing to share these projects with you.

So until next week, happt stamping and scrapbooking.

FRIDAY IS FABULOUS & ALL ABOUT THE FUNFOLD CARD

Today’s funfold card was inspired by Connie Stewart from SimplySimpleStamping. Thank you so much Connie for your inspiration.

Connie calls this a Diagonal Double Pocket Card.

I started with a Real Red Two-tone 12″x 12″ sheet of card and used Connie’s measurements. At some stage, over this weekend, I plan to convert it to ‘Australian’ measurments.

The card has two staggered pockets that are trimmed with Mossy Meadow card.

Each pocket has a card insert – the front card is a portrait tent-fold card and the back card is a single piece of Secret Sea with a panel of Basic White card.

The card front was embellished with several layers of the greeting ‘joy’ and gold sequins from the Traditional Sparkling Sequins.

The front card has been designed to hold a gift card, perfect for a combined Christmas card and gift.

For the card insert, I added a layered panel of Secret Sea and Basic White. I also added one of the Christmas greetings from the Greetings For You Mix & Match Ephemera Pack.

I think that I will take a break form Christmas next week and find something else wonderful to use in my projects.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.
