Hi, Stamper. Welcome to our November Fun Folds Blog Hop! Today I have a simple fun fold swing card to share with you, using the Fluffiest Friends bundle. This bundle was released as part of the Stampin’ Up! online exclusives, which means this bundle will not be pictured in any of our catalogs. But, it’s a good one and I don’t want you to miss it!
I made two of these fun fold swing cards – one using the bear with the honey pot and one using the cat with the flower pot. I’ve colored them both using the Stampin’ Blends, but then I have added some colored pencil to give the look of “fur”. (I used the Stampin’ Up! watercolor pencils assortment 1 – did you know these changed with our latest color refresh?)
My fun fold swing card is made with a Pretty Peacock card base and I used the Delightful Floral Designer Series Paper (this too, is an online exclusive – and it’s gorgeous!)
To make the fun fold swing card, I scored the front of the card halfway at 2-1/8″ and folded it back. I used the large die from the Fluffiest Friends Bundle, basically centered over the score line. When I ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, I only had the top plate on the half of the die I wanted to cut. You can see more of how I did that in the video below.
