Bay Window Fun Fold Birthday Card

Stam[in' Up! Peaceful Moments Hydrangea Hill Bay Window Fun Fold Birthday Card Idea - Jeanie Stark StampinUp
Oh my gosh! I love this “new to me” fun fold card! I learned this “bay window” fun fold idea from Rachel Tessman. I changed it up using the Hydrangea Hill Designer Series Paper and several different stamp sets. I made this card for my sister’s birthday. She loves hydrangeas! Our birthdays are just two days apart and we often celebrated together growing up.  I added some butterflies because they remind me of my favorite “butterfly cake” my mom would bake  for my sister and me. (*To make a butterfly cake, my mom would bake a round chocolate cake, cut it in half, and put the curved sides in the middle. She would frost it all over, put Hershey kisses down the middle, and add licorice for antennae. Perfect for our spring birthdays!)

Here’s more photos of this cool fun fold card. This first one shows what the card looks like closed.

The butterflies are stamped on Basic White using the Butterfly Gala Stamp Set and Memento Black Ink. They are colored with Stampin’ Blends and punched out using the Butterfly Duet Punch.
Here’s a look at the inside of the card.
Stam[in' Up! Happiest of Birthdays and Punch Party Hydrangea Hill Bay Window Fun Fold Birthday Card Idea - Jeanie Stark StampinUp
The inside sentiment is from the Happiest of Birthdays Stamp Set.  I added the Gorgeous Grape Sheer Ribbon and a Pastel Pearl to the sentiment on the side from Punch Party. It is punched out using the Timeless Label Punch and popped up with Stampin’ Dimensionals to hold the card open for the bay window look.
