I haven’t shared in a few days because my husband and I have been dealing with poison oak. Definitely not fun and it was hard to create with itching on my mind. Luckily we’re on the road to an itch free life once again.
Today I have two fun fold cards to share with you using Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper. I shared another card using this same layout a few weeks ago but used our Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper. You can see that card HERE.
I started with a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock and scored it in two places to make the fun fold (you can find the measurements below the Supply List). Then I cut and embossed two pieces of Basic White cardstock using the Stitched Greenery Die and adhered them to the two panels on the front of the card.
Next, I cut a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock and adhered a piece of Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back (only on the top section) and adhered it to the top panel. I stamped the sentiment in Fresh Freesia ink onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Happiness Abounds stamp set and cut it out using the Double Oval Punch. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it on the front of the card. To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside and added a Brushed Brass Butterfly to the sentiment.
Here’s another variation also using Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper but this time I used Melon Mambo cardstock and Melon Mambo ink.
