Gift Card Holder for Fun Folds Blog Hop

INSTRUCTIONS:

Cut 8 1/2″ X 11″ cardstock into one piece that is 7 3/4″ X 10″. With the 7 3/4 side at the top, score at 6″ and 2 1/2″. Then, on the 10″ side, cut in half at 5″, making two gift card holders.

It helps to have the right tools, and Stampin’ Up’s Paper Trimmer is my favorite for measuring, cutting, and scoring. I took this photo last year.

 

To decorate the gift card holders, cut two pieces of Designer Series Paper: The bottom front is 4 3/4″ X 2 1/4″. The top front is 4 3/4″ X 1 1/2″.

Cut one piece of Basic White Cardstock for the sentiment on the inside, 4 3/4″ X 1 1/2″.

Use a circle punch, or die, to make a finger slot in the middle of the bottom front.

Attach a piece of Tear & Tape to each side of the bottom (inside), and close, sealing your pocket.

 

Cut the bands 7 3/4″ X 1″. Score at 6 1/8″ and 2 1/2″. You want that extra 1/8 inch on the scoring, so the band will slide off and on easily. Glue the band with the attached edge in front, which keeps the back looking smooth and pretty.

Decorate the bands with snowflakes cut with a Detailed Pines Die from Elegant Pine Snowflakes Designer Paper. After adding cardstock for thickness, glue the snowflake to the band, covering the attached edge.

Joyful Days Trifold for Fun Folds Blog Hop

To see photos correctly, please click “read on blog.”

 

Welcome to the Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators Fun Folds Blog Hop. There’s a lineup below to make it easy for you to hop along.

This month’s design is a trifold, or triple fold-out, decorated with Joyful Days Memories & More Card Pack. To create the card base, cut 8 1/2″ X 11″ Mossy Meadow Cardstock in half, giving you two pieces , 4 1/4″ X 11″. Score on the 11″ side: 2 1/2″, 3 3/4″, 6 3/4″, and 8 1/4″. Then, fold on the score lines, mountain/valley, mountain/valley.

Joyful Days Trifold

 

Next, cut three pieces of Cherry Cobbler Cardstock: front panel 3 1/8″ X 4″, middle panel 4″ X 4″, and back panel 2 1/2″ X 4″. Decorate with Joyful Days Memories & More Card Pack designs, cut 1/8″ smaller. Glue the decorated, Cherry Cobbler Cardstock panels to the folds, as shown, careful not to add glue to the portion that remains “free.” This is a view from the top.

 

As a final touch, each panel received Traditional Sparkling Sequins in red, green, and gold. These are fun to use, because they are self-adhesive, without holes in the center, and very sparkly in person. Did you notice that the third panel is ready for a personal message? It isn’t visible when the card is closed, and this card fits in our medium envelope.

Everyday Arches for Fun Folds Blog Hop

To see photos correctly, please click “read on blog.”

 

Welcome to the Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators Fun Folds Blog Hop. There’s a lineup below to make it easy for you to hop along.

The basic design of my Fun Fold card is a Z Fold, with arches added to the card base.

Joyful Days Fun Fold

 

The Z Fold card base was cut from White Willow Cardstock, 2 3/4″ X 12″, scored at 4″ and 8 “. Then, I used the largest Everyday Arches Die to cut three arches from White Willow cardstock, and glued them to the Z fold card base. Here’s a view of the back.

 

Next, I used the second largest, Everyday Arches Die, to cut three arches: two from Mossy Meadow Cardstock, and one from the Joyful Days Memories & More Card Pack. This “card pack” is a favorite from the 2025 September-December Mini Catalog (p.13), and will be available September 3.

 

After the second largest, Everyday Arches, were glued to the Z Fold, I used the fifth largest, Everyday Arches Die, to cut arches from the Joyful Days Memories & more Card Pack. Then, they were glued in place, and my Fun Fold was complete. The card pack includes cards with sentiments, and cards for personal messages, making creating “quick & easy.”

Double Easel “Plus” for Fun Folds Blog Hop

To see photos correctly, please click “read on blog.”

 

Welcome to the Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators Fun Folds Blog Hop. There’s a lineup below to make it easy for you to hop along.

The basic design of my Fun Folds card is a Double Easel, “plus” I added holes and circles for extra fun!

By Su Mohr for Fun Folds Blog Hop; Click aromasandart.com to go to my website for details! Featuring: Floral Impressions DSP, Impressions Abloom Bundle, Stylish Shapes Dies, Beautiful Motifs Dies, Splendid Autumn DSP, Coneflower Celebrations Stamp Set; #funfolds #doubleeasel #funfoldsbloghop ##floralimporessions #impressionsabloom #coneflowercelebrations #splendidautumn #handmadecards #stampinup #beautifulmotifs

Double Easel Plus

 

To begin, I cut Thick Basic White Cardstock, 8 1/2″ X 11″, in half, having two pieces, 4 1/4″ X 11″. I scored one at 5 1/2″, and one at 5 1/2″, with the front fold at 2 3/4″, and glued the two together. Then, I cut Floral Impressions Designer Paper: front-4″ X 2 1/2″, middle-4″ X 5 1/4″, and back-4″ X 5 1/4″. After gluing the designer paper to the card base, I used a Stylish Shapes circle die to cut a hole in the middle section.

 

Next, I used the largest and second largest Stylish Shapes circle dies to cut Thick Basic White Cardstock. I made six cuts, so I would have three, layered, circles. Then, I prepared the flowers and the greenery. The two flowers were cut from Basic White Cardstock, using Impressions Abloom Dies. After cutting, I stamped the flowers with Pretty In Pink Ink and Fresh Freesia Ink. Before gluing the flowers to the circles, I added color with Small Blending Brushes. The centers were cut with Impressions Abloom Dies from Splendid Autumn Designer Paper, and glued in place. The greenery was cut with a Beautiful Motifs Die from Splendid Autumn Designer Paper, layered on Garden Green Cardstock for thickness, and glued to a circle.

 

The greenery circle was glued to the card base first. Then, I carefully lined up the front, and back, flower circles, and glued them in place. The white center was replaced on the back circle for a personal message.

 

The sentiment, “celebrating you” is from the Coneflower Celebrations Stamp Set. I stamped it in Blackberry Bliss Ink on Basic White Cardstock, used a Stylish Shapes Die for cutting, and attached it with Dimensionals. I hope you enjoyed seeing this Double Easel Plus, as much as I enjoyed making it!

Lovely Day for Fun Folds Blog Hop

To see photos correctly, please click “read on blog.”

 

Welcome to the Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators Fun Folds Blog Hop. There’s a lineup below to make it easy for you to hop along.

The card I’m sharing today is extra long, and fits perfectly in a legal sized envelope. The card base is Thick Basic White Cardstock, 9 1/4″ X 8″, folded at 4″. I decided to make this “fun fold,” because I wanted to show the length of different colored flowers on this beautiful, Floral Impressions Designer Paper. I cut the designer paper, 9 1/8″ X 3 7/8″, and glued it to the card front,  giving it a 1/16″ border.

Lovely Day

 

Next, I cut the word “lovely” using two Sweet Blooms Dies. I used Thick Basic White Cardstock for the word, and backed it with Secret Sea Cardstock. After cutting, I glued the two together, and glued it to the card front.

 

Completing the sentiment, “It’s a” and “day,” from the Sweet Blooms Stamp Set, were stamped in Secret Sea Ink. After stamping, I used the smallest, Perennial Postage Die for cutting, and attached the words with Dimensionals. For some sparkle, I added five, Holographic Resin Dots.

 

While making this card, I kept singing the Bill Wither’s song, Lovely Day. Now you can sing along:)

Then I look at youAnd the world’s alright with meJust one look at youAnd I know it’s gonna be

A lovely day (lovely day, lovely day, lovely day, lovely day)(Lovely day, lovely day, lovely day, lovely day)A lovely day (lovely day, lovely day, lovely day, lovely day)(Lovely day, lovely day, lovely day, lovely day)

Along These Lines Dog for Fun Folds Blog Hop

To see photos correctly, please click “read on blog.”

Welcome to the Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators Fun Folds Blog Hop. There’s a lineup below to make it easy for you to hop along.

I’m calling this month’s design a “circle flap.” It features the darling dog from Along These Lines Stamp Set, combined with Beautiful Gallery Designer Paper.

By Su Mohr for the Fun Folds Blog Hop; Click aromasandart.com to go to my website for details! Featuring: Along These Lines Stamp Set, Spotlight On Nature Dies, Wonderful Thoughts, Beautiful Gallery DSP; #alongtheselines #beautifulgallery #spotlightonnature #wonderfulthoughts #metallicgems #funfolds #funfoldcards #dogs #Stampin'up #cardmaking #handmadecards #

“Circle flap” Fun Fold

 

I started with a Basic Beige card base, 8″ X 4 1/4″, scored at 2 1/2″. The 2 1/2″ fold is the front, which I covered with Beautiful Gallery Designer Paper, 2 1/4″ X 4″. The same pattern was used for the inside, 5 1/4″ X 4″.

 

Next, I stamped the dog from Along These Lines Stamp Set in Early Espresso Ink on a second pattern of Beautiful Gallery DSP, and used a Spotlight On Nature Die for cutting.  Then, I backed the circle with Basic Beige Cardstock, for thickness. After cutting another circle of Basic Beige Cardstock for the inside, I glued all the circles, making sure the border holes matched.

 

After gluing the circles, I stamped the sentiment, “hi friend,” from the Wonderful Thoughts Stamp Set, on Beautiful Gallery DSP. After stamping, I used its Wonderful Thoughts Dies for cutting, layered it for thickness, and glued it in place. For a little sparkle, I added three, copper, Metallic Gems.
