Les Shoppes DSP  - Skinny Z Fun Fold

Hello my stamping friends.

Welcome to July! Today I am sharing the first of the two fun fold templates for this month. I have crafted this fold many, many times over the last 20+ years of card making.  It really is a simple fun fold to use.

For this one, you simply score off a section of the front cover and then fold it back.  For this specific card I used just a skinny section.  But then look at all the surfaces you can decorate with our beautiful DSP.

For this month’s fun fold template class sample projects, I am using the Les Shoppes DSP.  At first I really didn’t know what I would do with these prints, but I’m getting more and more ideas as I work with them.

Okay, so each of these Fun Fold projects has a Show & Tell video to take us from start to finish.  So let’s start there.  If you have your templates and practice kits, you received in the mail, you can follow along and pause the video as we work together, or watch and then make your kits.  Whichever works best for you.  Here we go!

Would you like to receive this template in the mail, along with a sample kit to practice one of your own?  I have many who have signed up for my Template In The Mail Class.  Everyone is enjoying the hands on template and then the pre-cut sample kit to practice one of their own!  It’s not too late to get this month’s template projects, I always make a couple of extra just to have on hand.

Happy Stamping,

Susan

Wildlife Wonder with Let’s Go Fishing DSP

for Accordion Fold Cards

Stamping With Friends Blog Hop

Hello my stamping friends.

Today we are featuring Accordion Fold cards on the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop.  There are so many different ideas out there in the paper crafting universe on this type of project.  I expect there will be plenty to learn from today’s hopping crafters.  After you take a look at my project, be sure to follow the NEXT LINK to see more.  And remember, we love comments, so please let us know we inspire you!

My project features the Wildlife Wonder stamp set and the Let’s Go Fishing DSP.  I have it on a Boho Blue card base and paired it with Very Vanilla.  I did use the Detailed Tags Dies for my belly band embellishments and did some heat embossing there too.  Plus I dry embossed the background tag with the Stripes and Splatters Mini Embossing Folder.

I have a short video tutorial that shows this card opening up.  It has accordion hinges on the left and right of the opening that allow the different tiers of cardstock and DSP to continue to open out until you see the center.  Here is the link!
