Hello there Crafty friends. Welcome to this month’s Stamp Impressions Europe Blog Hop. I am part of an amazing group of demonstrators from all around Europe and we will be sharing some wonderful ideas based around a monthly theme. This month we are sharing some Fun Fold Projects & I am sharing my Fun Fold Floral Pocket Card that I recently shared on my Facebook Live

Fun Fold Floral Pocket Card

I made these pretty cards on a recent Facebook live and you won’t believe how easy they were.

This cute fun fold card was inspired by one I made for our Team Gathering last month. Everyone loved it some much I decided it to share it.

Fun Fold Floral Pocket Card Directions       

  • Mark the card base at 7cm & up each side at 7.0 cm
  • Score from each side to the middle mark
  • Fold each corner to the centre and burnish the edges
  • Glue the DSP strip across the top of the card front
  • Cut DSP square from corner to corner to create two triangles
  • Stick one of the DSP triangles to the upturned triangles on the card front to create a pocket
  • Take the other DSP triangle and in half again
  • Add the old olive strip to the underside of the long edge of the triangle
  • Stamp your inner sentiment on the piece of Basic White
  • Glue the triangles to the corners of the piece of Basic White card & add to the inside of the card with glue
  • Now you are ready to decorate your fun fold card!
  • Use some of the Hues of Happiness DSP

Or how about stamping your own flowers’ Here is a card using the Pansy Patch Stamps – they look so gorgeous on this card
