Lovely Arrangements for Fun Folds Blog Hop

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

 

 

 

I began with Cloud Cover Cardstock, 8 1/2″ X 11″, cut in half, 4 1/4″ X 11″. One half was scored: 2″, 3 3/4″, 7 1/4″, and 9″. The other half was cut 4 1/4″ X 4″ and 4 1/4″ X 5 1/2″, with one piece remaining.

 

 

First, I decided the front would be a gorgeous pattern of Lovely Blossoms Designer Paper. This was cut 3 3/4″ X 4″ and glued to the Cloud Cover Cardstock piece, 4″ X 4 1/4″. Second,  I fussy cut an oval with flowers from Lovely Blossoms Designer Paper, and attached it with Dimensionals to the front. Then, I stamped “Happy Birthday,” from the Lovely Arrangements Stamp Set, in Secret Sea Ink on Basic White Cardstock. After cutting with its  Lovely Arrangements Die, I glued it in place.

 

 

Next, I cut two pieces of  Lovely Blossoms Designer Paper, 3/4″ X 4″, in a ticking pattern. These were glued to the ends of Cloud Cover Cardstock, 5 1/2″ X 4 1/4″. By gluing these first, it helps center the long, scored piece, which I glued in place. See how they show when the card is folded flat?

 

 

After gluing a third piece of ticking, Lovely Blossoms Designer Paper, 1 3/4″ X 4″, to the right side of the front fold, comes the trickiest part. I glued the floral panel to the left side of the front fold, so it overlapped the right side, Making  sure to only glue half the panel. It opens to reveal the center, where I layered  Lovely Blossoms Designer Paper, 3 1/4″ X 4″, with Basic White Cardstock, 3″ X 3 3/4″.

Brushed With Beauty for Fun Folds Blog Hop

Black Friday Sale Begins today!

See details below.

 

 

Let’s call this month’s Fun Fold a “diamond flap.” Peggy Noe shared it as “mystery stamping” during our monthly zoom meeting. I knew I couldn’t go wrong with the fabulous, Brushed With Beauty products, and began with a Petal Pink card base, 8 1/2″ X 4 1/4″, scored at 3″. Then, I cut a pattern of Brushed With Beauty Designer Paper, 2 3/4″ X 4″, and glued it to the front flap.

Diamond Flap Fun Fold

 

Next, I cut Petal Pink Cardstock 2 3/4″ X 2 3/4″, and Very Vanilla Cardstock, 2 1/2″ X 2 1/2″, and glued them together. To decorate the square I used a Petals Of Beauty Die to cut leaves from Brushed With Beauty DSP, and glued it to the square. I also stamped a Petals Of Beauty flower in Petal Pink on Basic White Cardstock, used a Petals Of Beauty Die for cutting, attached it with Dimensionals, and added three Pearls Of Beauty to the center. Then, I turned the square into a diamond, and attached it to the flap with Dimensionals, making sure the Dimensionals were on the left side of the diamond.

 

“It’s your birthday” is from the Words of Beauty Stamp Set. I stamped it in Mossy Meadow on Very Vanilla Cardstock, used its Words Of Beauty Die for Cutting, and attached it with Dimensionals. 

 

For the inside, there is Very Vanilla Cardstock, 5 1/4″ X 4″, stamped with “I think you’re amazing” in Mossy Meadow Ink. The petals were stamped in Petal Pink on Basic White Cardstock, cut with its Petals of Beauty Die, and glued in place. I hope you’ll have fun creating with this simple “diamond flap” design.

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. 

By Su Mohr for Fun Folds Blog Hop; Click aromasandart.com to go to my website for details!

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!
