The Stampin’ Fancy Friday Design Team is a group of past and continuing Artisans, bringing our followers a fancy monthly challenge for inspiration. This month’s challenge is “bold & bright.”
I created two “fun fold” cards with six of Stampin’ Up’s bright colors; one in portrait, and one in landscape orientation.
Bright & Bold Fun Fold Cards
For the birthday card, I stamped the heart, from the Hearts Of Elegance Bundle, in Granny Apple, Green Lemon Lime Twist, and Pumpkin Pie. After stamping the hearts on Basic White Cardstock, I used their Hearts Of Elegance Die for cutting, along with three, plain, white, hearts for backing. Next, I cut Thick Basic White Cardstock, 7″ X 5 1/4″, folded at 3″, creating the fun fold.The front was decorated with Full Of Life Designer Paper in the same bright colors, 2 3/4″ X 5″. After gluing the hearts in place, I stamped “Happy Birthday,” from the So Sincere Stamp Set, used a Friends For Life Die for cutting, and attached it with Dimensionals. The last step was gluing this white card base to Lemon Lime Twist Cardstock, 4 1/4″ X 5 1/2″, and adding three Shiny Sequins.
The inside was stamped with “Knowing you brings joy to my heart,” also from the So Sincere Stamp Set. This picture shows how the hearts look with backing.
The Valentine fun fold was created a bit differently. I began with a Petunia Pop card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. Then, I glued Full Of Life Designer Paper to the front, 4″ X 5 1/4″, and simply cut 1 inch off the card front. This time I stamped the hearts in Petunia Pop, Berry Burst, and Melon Mambo. “Happy Valentine’s Day” is from the Hearts Of Elegance Stamp Set, and Something Fancy Dies were used for cutting.
The sentiment inside is also from the Hearts Of Elegance Stamp Set.

This month is a “Pretty in Plaid” challenge.
I chose a red and green plaid from Iconic Celebrations Designer Paper, 4″ X 5 1/4″, and glued it to a Basic Beige card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. Once I had my plaid background, I stamped the the Happy Hibiscus in Real Red Ink on Basic Beige Cardstock, and used its Happy Hibiscus Die for cutting. Then, I used its Happy Hibiscus Hybrid Embossing Folder to give it texture, and colored the stamen with a Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blend.
Hibiscus and Plaid
Next, I used a Happy Hibiscus Die to cut three leaves from Basic White Cardstock, and colored them with a Blending Brush and Mossy Meadow Ink. Then, I glued the leaves to the flower, and attached it to a tag with Dimensionals. The tag was cut with a Merry Tags & More Die from Basic Beige Cardstock, which I attached to the card front with Dimensionals.
For the sentiment, I used Glimmer Paper to cut “Merry,” which was also cut with a Merry Tags & More Die. “Christmas” is from the Greetings Of the Season Stamp Set, stamped it in Mossy Meadow Ink on Basic Beige Cardstock. I used its Greetings Of The Season Die for cutting, and attached it with Dimensionals.

Stampin’ Fancy Friday Sketch Challenge
This month is a sketch challenge.
Using a card sketch is one of my favorite ways to boost my creative mojo. Looking at the sketch, I used Full Of Life Designer Paper to cut two pieces with Paper Snips and two with Everyday Details Dies.
Then, I glued the two “paper snipped” pieces to Basic White Cardstock, embossed it with the Dotted Circles Embossing Folder, and glued it to a Granny Apple Green card base.
“Hi” is from the Friends For Life Stamp Set. The “die-cut” pieces were attached with Dimensionals, and as a finishing touch, I added three Shiny Sequins.
