August 12, 2024

August is proving to be a very good Stampin' Up! month!
My card today is another fun fold that shows off our designer series paper. I don't have a name for this fold.
The card opens to look like this.
Start with a piece of Countryside Inn patterned paper that is 5 x 11 1/2. Check to see if there is a direction on your paper and cut accordingly if so. Score the paper at 1 3/4, 4 3/4, and 7 3/4. Fold so that the largest section will be eventually glued to a base. The rest is zig zag or a W fold.
For this card, I glued the smallest section down on the next section. This part shows the backside of the paper. As I was deciding how to decorate this card, the trees made me think of the new Frosted Forest dies. So, I made blue trees. It's my card and I'll have blue if I wish!
The tag is cut from Basic White using the Greetings of the Season dies. I cut the die that represents the leaves of the tree in Night of Navy. Then cut the tree truck part in Balmy Blue. Glue these pieces to the tag. Glue the leaves first and then the tree trunk on top to imitate the trees on the patterned paper.
The saying is from the Frosted Forest stamp set. I've only inked up the top part of the saying and trimmed it down. Add a little adhesive line near the bottom of the tag and zig zag a little Linen Thread. Add Mini Dimensionals in the adhesive line and attach the saying.
Attach Linen Thread to the top of the tag. Take about a 5 inch piece of the thread and double it. Stick it through the hole in the front of the tag. Run the ends of the thread through the loop.
Add this tag with dimensionals. On this card a part of my tag is over the folded DSP. Make sure you only put the dimensionals to the left of that fold.
Decorate with some birds from the Adhesive Backed Dragonflies &b Birds.
The middle panel is cut using the Deckled Rectangles dies. Decorate with a flower and leaf using the Country Birdhouse dies. The flower is Balmy Blue and the leaves are Night of Navy.
The back panel of the card is another tag from the Greetings of the Seasons dies. The saying is from the Courage & Faith stamp set. Stamp in Night of Navy. Add a bird over the hole in the tag and maybe another somewhere.
The base of this card is Night of Navy 4 1/4 x 5 1/2. There is a layer of Balmy Blue that is 3 7/8 x 5 1/8. Glue the Balmy to the Night of Navy and then glue the folded card in the center of the Balmy Blue.
Now find someone who would love blue trees and send them this card! Thank you very much!
