Pals June Blog Hop: New In-Colors!

Welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop! This month, the theme is the new 2024-2024 In Colors. We hope to inspire you with our creations today! You will find the lineup at the end of my post to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal.

All of the 2024-2026 In Colors are so pretty, but this fun fold card focuses on one of my favorites: Peach Pie. This new color is so beautiful and warm, and pairs well with another new color: Petunia Pop. Here’s the fun fold card I created:

The card features papers from two sets of Designer Series Papers: Unbounded Beauty and Country Woods. I chose this particular wood pattern because it has shades of a warm ‘peachy-pink’ in the grain. The steps to making this fun fold are quite easy. Keep scrolling for a visual guide as well!

• Start with a piece of 8 1/2″ x 11” Peach Pie cardstock.  Mark a tick with a pencil on the 8 1/2″ side at 3” from the right side of the cardstock and at 3” from the left at the bottom of the cardstock, and then cut diagonally from one tick mark to the other. One piece of cardstock makes two card bases. Set one card base away for another time. (See photo below where I’ve diagrammed the tick marks.)
• Take one card base and score on the long side at 3″ and 6 3/4,” as shown. Fold and burnish at the scorelines. This is the foundation for your fun fold.
• Cut three coordinating panels of Designer Series Paper:
  • Large Panel: 4” x 5 1/4″
  • Medium Panel: 3 1/2″ x 4 1/4″
  • Small Panel: 2 3/4″ x 3 1/2″
• Also cut a panel from Basic White cardstock at 3 1/2″ x 4 1/4″ for the inside of the card.
• To cut the correct angles for the DSP, simply take the piece of DSP for the correct panel and line it up at the very top corner of the panel you’ll be adhering it to. Make a tick mark or draw a light line with a pencil to show what will need to be cut off. (See below!) Trim with your paper snips, then move down to center it on the panel. The angle will be just right! Here’s a little visual step-by-step to help you get it. Click on the first photo, and advance your way through. Once you do it once, it’s super easy!

Adhere all the DSP panels to your card base. When opened, the DSP lines up like this, with the white cardstock as the second panel. When closed, the white doesn’t show. The wood-grained cardstock is on the opposite side.

After adhering all the panels, it’s time to decorate the front of the card. Cut a diecut in Peach Pie from the Unbounded Love Dies and heat emboss a sentiment from the Unbounded Love Stamp Set. Cut a few decorative sprigs from the same dies in Petunia Pop, and then pop the sentiment piece up onto the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals, tucking the sprigs behind it. Finish the card with a few embellishments, and you are done!

I hope you enjoyed my project. All the products I used can be found below. Just click on any item to start shopping with me!
