This stand up accordion fun fold card will be on display for sure!
How cute are these deer fussy cut from the Storybook Gnomes Designer Series Paper?
Even though this accordion fold card stretches out for display, it folds up to be a standard size greeting card and fits a regular envelope.
You will find the template and directions below.
For dog and cat lovers – the Sit Stay Relax Stamp Set is perfect. I love the unusual sentiments in this stamp set – like “relish the day” and “you feel like home to me”. Here it is paired with the Lovely in Linen Designer Series Paper.
For an elegant thank you card, try these Amazing Things Dies. Layering the “thanks” over a piece of Vellum Cardstock and a circle of Gold Metallic Specialty Paper makes it stand out. The gold in the Texture Chic Designer Series Paper continues the look.
The By My Side Stamp Set has the cutest kids, each with a companion. The sentiments in this stamp set go so well together. I used four of them (out of seven choices) all on this card – “Hi, sweet friend”, “Life is better with friends like you”, “Thank you for being a part of my life”, and “Nice to have you by my side”. What great ways to describe a friendship.
Christmas cards that just ask to be put on display are fun to make. Timeless poinsettias give an elegant look with the Boughs of Holly Designer Series Paper.
The Sweetest Cherries Stamp Set, of course, make the sweetest thank you cards or friendship cards.
For tea lovers (or coffee lovers – just change the tag), the Cup of Tea Stamp Set hits the spot.
All of the flowers in the Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper can be arranged into lovely displays on your card.
Butterfly cards are always popular. Here the Brilliant Wings Dies cut out with Basic White Thick Cardstock are attached just at the center of the Butterfly Kisses Designer Series Paper.
Elegance in shades of blue describe this card using the Nature’s Prints Bundle and the Sun Prints Designer Series Paper.
