Fun Folds!!

 These are easy fun folds! The first fold has been floating around the internet for quite a while. I got it from fellow Demo Tara Carpenter, who got it from someone on Pinterest. Isn't it just the cutest thing? Both cards use the Tea Boutique Designer Series Paper and the Cup of Tea Bundle



All measurements in inches.

  1. For the base, cut a piece of Sweet Sorbet cardstock 5-1/4 x 5 1/2" scored at 1.”  Adhere a piece of Stampin' Up Tea Boutique DSP to the small flap.  

  2. Cut a piece of Basic White cardstock at 3 x 7 then score on the short side at 3, 3-1/2 and 4.”  Fold it in half, then fold the top scored line back. Adhere it to the small flap of the card base with Stampin' Up Tear & Tape. 

  3. After stamping the following, die cut all the pieces with Stampin' Up Teacup Dies.

    • Stamp the teacup on Blushing Bride card stock with Sweet Sorbet ink.  

    • Stamp the leaves with Garden Green ink on a piece of Parakeet Party card stock.  

    • Stamp flowers on Basic White cardstock with Crushed Curry and Sweet Sorbet ink.  

    • Stamp teabag tag on Basic White cardstock with Tuxedo Black ink.

  1. Attach a piece of Baker's Twine to the back of the teabag tag, and then behind the teacup with glue dots.

  2. Adhere the tea bag tag to the front of the teacup with Stampin' Dimensionals.

  3. Adhere the flowers and teacup to the 3 x 7 White card front with liquid adhesive. 

  4. Embellish the front with enamel dots.  

  5. Apply Tear & Taper to the top of the 3 x 7 card front (between the score line and the folded edge. Then apply it to the back of the flap on the Sweet Sorbet Card Base, making sure to center it and allow room to open the white folded card.

  6. To attach a piece of DSP 5-1/2 x 4 behind the 3 x 7 mini card, apply a piece of
    Tear & Tape on the back of the the 3 x 7 mini card. Next center the DSP with the Sweet Sorbet cardbase, close the flap and adhere.

  7. Stamp the sentiment with Starry Sky ink on the inside of the small white panel.  

  8. Die cut a piece of So Saffron and DSP (with an adhesive sheet on it) to create a lemon wedge.  Adhere the lemon to the inside.

  9. A piece of Basic White 4 x 5-1/4 a sentiment with Sweet Sorbet ink is used for the inside of the card.  Adhere a strip of DSP toward the bottom.

    Sweet Sorbet: 5-1/2 x 5-1/4 scored at 4-1/4

  2. Starry Sky 5-7/8 x 3 score on the long side @ 1-3/4, and 3-7/8. Accordion fold this piece and you will have three sections.

  • To attach this piece, put adhesive along about an inch of the back of the first section of card stock and adhere it to the DSP front flap.

  • Put adhesive on the entire back of the last section and close the card to adhere it to the inside .
