Pansy Patch Archives - Libby Fens, Stampin' Up! Demonstrator

Happy Friday!

I have a quick and easy fun fold today – a latch card!

I went with a card that really showed off the Designer Series Paper, as this one, a several others are on sale! For this card, I used the Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper –

This card style really shows off the coordination of the prints!

I did not add a lot of detail here as I wanted to show something simple so you get the idea how this works. Here it is open –

I used a basic card base, 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ and scored it at 4 1/2″, something you quite frequently make. The i removed a 1 1/4″ strip parallel to the score line to use for thee flap. That piece, I scored at 3 3/4″. No waste!

I adhered my Designer Series Paper on the outside. After, I used a retired Classic Label punch to create a slit in the front of the card about an inch from the bottom of the card front, saving the scrap. A thin die would work as well!

I figured where my flap would insert and adhered the smaller portion to the back of the card insert. I adhered that down with a strong adhesive like Tear & Tape. I also added the Designer Series Paper strip.

I stamped a sentiment from the Pansy Patch stamp set for the strip on the front.

Simple done!

And easily made –

Please let me know if you have any questions! This Fun Fold is one sure to try! Make yourself a pattern too, so you will always know how to make it!

Happy Try Stampin’ on Tuesday!

And happy NEW catalog day for those of you love Stampin’ Up! products!

We have a new two week challenge for you today –

Optional Theme : Pastels

And, yes, I’m using new products! Look at this patel beauty –

I started with a Pale Papaya base, it is sort of like a peach color. I added two pieces of Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper, one flagged.

I used the Basic Borders Dies to create the stitched edge on the flagged plaid strip. It cuts quite nice!

The sentiment is from the coordinating Pansy Punch stamp set. The oval-like shape is from the Hippo & Friends Dies.

I added three premade pansies from the Designer Series paper using the Pansy Die! Couldn’t be any easier!

What do you think of the new colors, the new stamps & Dies, all the fun new products??
