Christmas In July 2024 – Season of Green & Gold Double Box Fun Fold

Presenting a double box fun fold card using products in the Season of Green & Gold Suite Collection. This is project four of Christmas in July 2024. The Season of Green & Gold Suite Collection is an Online Exclusive product from Stampin’ Up! Using the coordinating two stamp bundles in the suite along with the gorgeous Seasons of Green & Gold Designer Series Paper makes it easy to create a beautiful card. The double box fun fold card design is perfect, especially for special cards. The design allows recipients to easily stand the card for display. Even better, the card folds flat allowing it to be inserted into a basic envelope for mailing.

Perennial Lavender Book Fold Card

It’s been a month since last posting!  Where has time gone?  Even though I haven’t taken the time to post, it doesn’t mean that I’ve not been crafting.  Actually, I’ve been spending more time crafting than doing lots of other things.  So today, I decided it was “computer time” and I’ve been busy outlining my posts for the next few weeks.

Now on to today’s card!  It’s a book fold card featuring the Perennial Lavender Product Suite.  The product suite features two stamp/die bundles – Perennial Postage and Painted Lavender.  In addition, the suite features the Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper and two different embellishments.  For the February monthly card class, the cards all featured products from the suite.  In addition, word sentiments from the Thoughtful Moments Hybrid Embossing Folder was incorporated on several of the projects.  In the assembly video below, I also demonstrate how to use the hybrid embossing folder along with recreating the card.

Playing In The Rain Fun Fold

This week I am featuring a cheerful fun fold card using the  Playing In The Rain bundle.  The recent class focused on Playing In The Rain Bundle and this is one of the cards participants were able to create.  Isn’t that bunny cute!  Though the stamp set includes the bunny, this bunny is from the Rain or Shine Designer Series Paper.  A  coordinating die from the Playing In The Rain dies makes it easy to cut the bunny shape.  More of the designer series paper is used for the background prints on the card.  Who doesn’t like a cheerful card?! 

Cut Dimensions for the Playing In The Rain Fun Fold Card:
  • Mango Melody Cardstock (Base: 4-1/4″ x 11″, score at 2-3/4″ and 5-1/2″; 3″ x 4-1/4″; scrap for kite die cut)
  • Rain or Shine Specialty Designer Series Paper (floral print – 2 pieces cut 2-1/2″ x 4″; checked print 4″ x 5-1/4″ for interior; 2-1/2″ x 6″ for envelope; bunny for die cut)
  • Basic White Cardstock (2 pieces 2-3/4″ x 4″)
  • Basic Black Cardstock (scrap 1-1/2″ x 4″ for kite)
