You're a Peach Fun-Fold Card

I was born and raised in Georgia so have always been a Georgia Peach.  I was excited to see Stampin' Up! had the You're A Peach suite (page 60 in the catalog) and it was on my wish list immediately!  I love the pretty papers that Stampin' Up! has created for us.

Here is the card I made:

And here are the directions:

  • Basic White:  3” x 4”       2” x 3 ¼”
  • DSP:                           4” x 12”           5 3/4” x 2 3/8” (for envelope flap); 2 ¾” x  5 7/8” of matching paper (can be the same as the paper used or something contrasting—I used the back of another sheet from the same DSP pack)

           

Instructions:

  1. Start by cutting your DSP.  Decide if it has a true up/down and cut with it so that it is up on the long side.  You’ll cut two 2 ½” x 4” and one 4” x 5 ¼”.  Keep them lined up in order if you want them to match on the front of your card.
  2. Score your cardstock.  Take the 4 ¼” x 11” piece and score at 2 ¾” and 5 ½”.  Take the 3” x 5 ½” piece and score at ½”.  The score lines need to be very crisp.  Use a bone folder to do this.
  3. Using the adhesive of your choice, begin putting the small pieces of DSP on your large cardstock lining them up. 
  4. Adhere the small ½” of the scored 3” x 5 ½” piece of old olive by folding that ½” and attach to the large piece of DSP so that it creates a flap extending out from the card.  Adhere that large piece of DSP lining it up with the previous two pieces. 
  5. Fold the 2 ¾” score mark back so it folds over the other pieces.
  6. Attach the contrasting DSP to the front of the flap. 
  7. Die cut the 3” x 4” Old Olive and Basic White piece using the third die.  Die cut the smallest Basic White piece using the second die from the inside.
  8. Stamp the sentiment (Thanks) on the larger smaller Basic White piece using Calypso Coral ink.  Attach to the Old Olive piece using Seal+ and then attach both pieces to the card front flap
  9. Stamp the inside sentiment in Old Olive and Calypso Coral and attach to the inside of the card so that it is hidden behind the flap
  10. Take the small piece of DSP and adhere to the flap of the envelope and cut to fit.

I have also done a One Sheet Wonder using the same papers and will share those later.  Enjoy!
