Multi Panel Accordion Fun Fold Card with Violet Dreams

It’s been a busy week!  I have had today’s card ready to go for days but just haven’t had the time to get online to post it! Did you play along with my Mystery Monday Stampin’? If you followed the clues you would have created a Multi Panel Accordion Card similar to this.
Mystery Solved!
Stampin' Up! Violet Dreams multi panel accordion fun fold birthday card idea-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
This accordion fold card is a beautiful way to showcase the new 12×12 Violet Dreams designer paper. The Stampin’ Up! Violet Dreams patterned paper (and suite) is an Online Exclusive July 2026 release. You won’t find this gorgeous paper in any catalog!

The Violet Dreams 12″ x 12″ Specialty Designer Series Paper is a whole mood: sweet, airy, and instantly eye-catching. With delicate violet florals, polka dots, soft stripes, and coordinating precut pieces of blooms and leaves to layer on cards, scrapbook pages, and other projects, it brings all the soft, dreamy vibes your crafts crave.

I used the coordinating Framed Violets Bundle on the front of my card. I colored the flowers with Highland Heather and Peaceful Pine Stampin’ Blends. I decided to add a couple of pearl embellishments at the last minute.

I went “rogue” and added 2 x 5 3/8 white strips on the back of my card to add additional sentiments as I had a lot to say about this milestone birthday!

Rewind & Redo with Sunset Coast

I am on my way home after a wonderful family vacation and thought I would share another “rewind & redo” project with you as well as a few photos from our trip. I’ve been looking back at some of the past projects I’ve shared on my blog the last 10 years and redoing them with some of my favorite current products. The fun fold card below is one I created last December for my 12 Days of Christmas Kit. You can click on the image to view the original post.

Stampin' Up! Nests of Winter Shadowbox card idea with Ornamental Christmas stamp set-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
The “redo” version of this shadowbox card features the Sunset Coast Dies.

I am a beachcomber and lighthouse enthusiast who also happens to love sailing, so there was no doubt I had to have the Sunset Coast dies!
Stampin' Up! Sunset Coast Dies-visit juststampin.com for inspiration, ordering information, and more-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
Bring a coastal vibe to your cards and paper crafts with Sunset Coast Dies. Layer the sailboat and lighthouse pieces over patterned paper for a peek of color or snip them from the frame and use them as standalone focal points. Combine die-cut sailboats, seashells, and rock formations to custom-create an oceanfront scene in the colors you choose.

These dies combined with the Scenic Coast Designer Series Paper is winning combination for all things coastal!
Stampin' Up! Scenic Coast Designer Series paper-visit juststampin.com for inspiration, ordering information, and more-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
Add color to your cards with the Scenic Coast 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper. Featuring vivid colors and layered textures, this two-sided paper has coastal sunsets on one side and visually engaging, versatile patterns on the other. Some sheets feature iridescent details that shift color as you move them.

I chose to feature the lighthouse on today’s card. (You can Click HERE to see two more cards I created using these dies and DSP.)  Our island vacation getaway had 5 lighthouses! We were able to visit 4 of them and actually climb 2. Here are some photos of the lighthouses.

West Chop Lighthouse is a private residence so we could not tour it! How cool would it be to live in a lighthouse?!!!!! Below is the view of it from the water I took the photo as we were leaving on the ferry.

Can you guess what island we visited?
Today’s lighthouse card is one of the cards that was included in my Just Stampin’ Card Kit to go for June.
