Simply Scored Fun Fold for the Pals Blog Hop

2019 April Blog Hop

Welcome to the Pals’ May  Blog Hop. We’re so glad you’re here because we made some great projects with “More Than One Score.” You may be starting the hop here or coming from a previous Pal’s blog. Either way, you’ve come to the right place. You’ll find the full line-up below to help you move, or “hop” along from Pal to Pal.

I love fun fold cards! I have been wanting to make this one for some time now but, the name, “Impossible Fold”, sounded intimidating.  Let me just say, this card is anything but impossible!  In fact, it is a really simple fun fold to make!

Stampin Up Free As a Bird Fun Fold All Occasion card idea - Jeanie Stark StampinUp

I used the Free As a Bird Stamp Set and and Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper which will be available in the new annual catalog when it debuts June 4th. Demonstrators were able to see and play with new products at Stampin’ Up!’s OnStage event.  This suite was used for one of the make ‘n take projects.  I like to challenge myself and use the make ‘n take products to make something a little different.

This fun fold starts with a piece of 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 cardstock.  A few simple scores (4 to be exact) turns what would be a flat card in to a cool pop up!

I love the new scalloped lace trim too! (I’ll share how I made the fun banner tomorrow.) I had fun coloring the birds with the Stampin’ Blends. You could just as easily watercolor with ink or use Stampin’ Up!’s watercolor pencils. Just think of all the color possibilities for these cute little birds!

This fun fold card would look great propped up on a desk or bookcase.  Don’t forget to check back tomorrow for the photo tutorial so you can make one for someone special!

A Pizza Box Just For You

Stampin Up Merry Little Labels gift box idea using Everyday Label Punch, Leaf Punch, Pretty Pines Thinlits, Layering Circles and a pizza box. Jeanie Stark StampinUp

Yesterday I shared this cute little pizza box which is so versatile. It’s food safe for giving homemade treats, is perfect for little gifts, and even holds a Paper Pumpkin subscription! Slide off the belly band and take a peek inside!

You can decorate these in a variety of ways. As promised, here’s all the details…

I wanted to make the box color coordinate with the printed Paper Pumpkin subscription so I went with Real Red and Pool Party.  The Designer Series Paper is from Christmas Around the World.  I cut a 3 3/8″ square piece of Real Red cardstock for the base of the lid.  The DSP layer is a 3 1/4″ square.   The belly band measures 1 x 10 1/2 and is wrapped around the box and adhered in the front.  I cut 2 circles from the Layering Circles Framelits and adhered those to the belly band.  The sentiment is from Merry Little Labels and stamped in Real Red ink on Whisper White cardstock.  I punched it out with the Everyday Label Punch.  I also punched 2 more from Pool Party cardstock and cut each in half. I adhered the 4 pieces to the back of the sentiment to give it a layered look.  I punched the leaf from Silver Glimmer Paper using the leaf punch (which is one of my favorite punches).  I also cut some evergreen from the Pretty Pines Thinlits in pool party to add a little embellishment behind the sentiment layer. I made a bow from 1/8″ Real Red Ribbon and adhered with a glue dot.

When you purchase a Paper Pumpkin prepaid subscription you can download a gift certificate. My wonderful husband resized it to fit in the pizza box. You can certainly do the same; however, if you purchase a 3, 6, or 12 month prepaid paper pumpkin subscription through me I will send you the gift certificate and the decorated pizza box to put it in! All you’ll have to do is decide who is goes to and add the code (which you will receive via email).  Give the gift that keeps on giving! I love my Paper Pumpkin kits and look forward to my monthly surprise in the mail. I think they make a wonderful gift to give or receive!  Click HERE to order! Want to see more ideas using the pizza boxes? Click HERE to see some I shared previously.
