If you love double-sided patterned paper, this is the fun fold card design for you! This design lets you show off both sides of that beautiful scrapbooking paper. We created this fabulous card during last night's Mystery Stamping event in my Facebook Group. If you've never joined us for Mystery Stamping, what are you waiting for?!? It's so much fun! Be sure to join my Facebook group and then stop by next Tuesday for another mystery card. Below, I have step-by-step directions to create this easy fancy fold card below as well as samples using three different sets of paper and stamps. So, on y go! Let's get stamping.

Instructions for making this fun fold card

  1. Fold the piece of 5 ½” x 5 ½” cardstock on the score line to create your card base. 
  2. Fold the piece of 8” x 5 ¼” patterned paper in half. (You can score it first at 4” if you’d like.)
  3. Adhere the back of the folded piece of patterned paper to the inside of your card base leaving an even border on all sides.
  4. Stamp an image or large sentiment on the piece of 2 ¼” x 2 ¾” Whisper White or Very Vanilla cardstock.
  5. Adhere the stamped image to the piece of 2 ½” x 3” cardstock. Then, adhere it to the piece of 3” x 3 ½” cardstock.
  6. Adhere this stamped and layered piece to the skinny flap on the front of your card base. Be careful to only adhere it to the colored cardstock and not to the patterned paper.
  7. Tie a piece of ribbon around the skinny flap on the front of your card base.
  8. Stamp a sentiment or smaller image on the piece of 2 3/8” x 1 5/8” Whisper White or Very Vanilla cardstock.
  9. Adhere the stamped piece of 2 3/8” x 1 5/8” Whisper White or Very Vanilla cardstock to the piece of 2 ½” x 1 ¾” colored cardstock. Then, adhere it to the piece of 2 ¾” x 2” colored cardstock.
  10. Adhere this stamped and layered piece to the front of the folded piece of patterned paper.
  11. Adhere the piece of 3 ¾” x 5” Whisper White or Very Vanilla cardstock to the inside of the folded piece of patterned paper. Stamp a sentiment or image on it if you wish.
  12. Embellish your card as desired!

Congratulations Card Design

This fun congratulations card uses the new You Are Amazing stamp set from the 2021 January-June Mini Catalog and the Artistry Blooms patterned paper from Stampin' Up! These big, bold greetings work well with patterned paper to create quick and easy cards. Here, I stamped the greetings with Magenta Madness ink and added a few starts on the edges with Mango Melody ink. I also used these colors for the cardstock. 

I tied the front with Linen Thread. I should have added a few Artistry Blooms Adhesive-backed Sequins, but I've run out! Y'all know this is my favorite embellishment. So don't worry, I've added another pack to my next order!

Poppies Thank You Card

My second card using this easy fun fold design has a field of poppies on the front. I used the Painted Poppies stamp set for the poppy images and the Peaceful Moments stamp set for the sentiments. These two sets are designed to work together, and their coordinating dies work fantastically with both sets as well. 

I also sued the Flower & Field patterned paper that you can get for FREE during Sale-A-Bration 2021! I love, love, love this paper! With a black background the flowers really pop!

The front images sentiments are stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink and colored with Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Blends alcohol markers.

The poppies on the inside of the card have been stamped with a splotch that is included in the stamp set. Here I have stamped it with Flirty Flamingo ink to match the patterned paper.

Snail Mail Fun Fold Card

For my last card, I didn't do any stamping at all! Instead, I used images from the new Snail Mail 12x12 Designer Series Paper pack. It is part of the Snail Mail suite of products, but I haven't had a chance to get the whole suite yet. (It's on my wish list!) In the meantime, I fussy cut some of the images from the patterned paper and arranged them on my piece of Blushing Bride cardstock to create a little scene.

For the middle layer, I cut a number of word balloons from another piece of patterned paper and layered them over the piece of white cardstock. 

I added a little snail and some more mushrooms to the inside of the card, but didn't add a sentiment because this seems like the perfect card for writing a little note to someone. 

The front is tied with a piece of Blushing Bride Bakers twin from the Snail Mail Twine Combo pack, also part of the Snail Mail suite.
