Summer Happiness Fun Fold

 

I began by cutting Thick Basic White Cardstock with the largest, Scalloped Blooms Die, two times. I used the same die a third time to cut a black and white, honeycomb, pattern of Beautiful Ordinary Life Designer Paper, which I glued to the card front. Then, I scored the card front on the left side, five scallops in, and glued it to the back, scalloped piece, enabling the card to open and close.

 

Next, I stamped “Fun in the sun” in Memento Black Ink on Basic White Cardstock, used  the fourth largest Scalloped Blooms Die for cutting, and glued it in the center of the card front. This sentiment is in the Summer Happiness Bundle.

 

Now, for the really fun part of decorating the card, using the Summer Happiness Bundle. The flip-flops are so cute, with endless, color and print combinations! I used Valley In Bloom DSP with toe thongs of Lemon Lime Twist and Coastal Cabana Cardstock. The sunglasses, drink, and camera were stamped in Memento Black Ink. The sun and flowers were stamped in three colors of ink: Daffodil Delight, Poppy Parade, and Coastal Cabana. I added color to the sunglasses and drink with three colors of Stampin’ Blends: Lemon Lolly, Granny Apple Green, and Poppy Parade. All were cut with Summer Happiness Dies, and attached with Dimensionals. To complete the design, I added three, Array of Dots, and one Ladybug Epoxy Shape.
