Fun Fold Card -- Let It Snow!

Today's card is a really simple fun fold card to make.  I really like how it turned out and I think you will too!



In my example, this is what I used:

  • Card base:  5-1/2" x 8-1/2" Scored at 4-1/4" and 2-1/7" Tahitian Tide Cardstock
  • Strip: 5-1/4" x 1-7/8" Tahitian Tide Glimmer Paper
  • Inside Layer: 5-1/4" x 4" Basic White
  • Top Layer of the center:  2-1/2" x 3-1/2" Basic White
  • Middle Layer of the center:  3-3/4" x 2--3/4" Tahitian Tide Glimmer Paper
  • Bottom Layer of center:  3"X 4" Tahitian Tide Cardstock
  • Joyful Flurry Stamp Set, found in our 2022 June - December Mini Catalog, Page 19
  • Tahitian Tide Stamp Pad
  • Night of Navy Stamp Pad
  • Festive Pearls, found in our 2022 June - December Mini Catalog, Page 31
  • Multi-Purpose Glue
  • Stampin Seal
  • Stampin Dimensionals
  • Take Your Pick Tool
  • Paper Trimmer
The first thing to be done is to score your card base.  Use your bone folder to burnish all the folds so that the card lays flat.  You will fold the card in a Z-fold, which you see when you stand the card up on its side.


Then you want to stamp Your Basic White Pieces.  Using the Tahitian Tide Stamp Pad, border one side of the Inside Layer with one of the medium-sized snowflake stamps.  Take the large snowflake stamp and stamp that image on the small Basic White piece.  Then stamp the sentiment, Let It Snow on the front, using the Night of Navy Stamp Pad.

Time to assemble:  Place the Strip on the front panel of the card.  Place the Inside Layer with the border to the right, or if you wish, to the left.  Next using the multipurpose glue, adhere the Middle Layer of the center to the Bottom Layer of the Center.  Using Stamp-in' Dimensionals adhere to the Top Layer of the Center.  Place multi-purpose glue on the left side of the centerpiece and adhere to the first panel.  Top off the card with some Festive Pearls and you have a beautiful winter card to share with those you love!

Note:  The package for the pearls says Red and Green Adhesive Back Pearls, but the catalog calls them Festive Pearls.  Just wanted to note that in case there was any confusion.
