Stampin' Up! Double Front Flap fun fold cards with Waterside Retreat Designer series Paper and All Aflutter stamp set-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
The Double Front Flap Fun Fold Card (try saying that fast 3 times!!! LOL) is two cards in one…a smaller card on front and a full card inside. Let’s take a closer look at each of today’s cards.
Stampin' Up! Double Front Flap fun fold masculine birthday card with You In Mind Stamp Set and Waterside Retreat Designer series Paper-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
My first card features the Waterside Retreat Designer Series Paper. Stampin' Up! Waterside Retreat Designer Series Paper-visit juststampin.com for handmade inspiration, ordering information, and more-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
From life vests and oars to buoys and bicycles, each sheet of this beautifully designed paper captures a beloved element of lake life. The two cut-apart sheets offer the perfect opportunity to add scenic touches to your handmade cards, scrapbook pages, and more! This paper makes great masculine cards. It was easy to fussy cut the fish and water (on the inside of the card) from the DSP. Here’s what you see when you first open the mini card on front.

Then you untie the bow to reveal the rest of the card.

You can easily add another piece of 4 x 5 1/4 white cardstock on the left side if you wish to add a personal note. I really like this fun fold! The best part….it’s really easy and uses just 1 sheet of cardstock for the fun fold and mini card!!!

My first card featured two different patterns of DSP on the front. For my second card, I used just one pattern.

I love polka dots!!! The Painted Patterns Designer Series Paper come in all the different color families. WOO HOO!!!! It features stripes and two different polka dot patterns. The All Aflutter Punch Bundle makes it quick & easy to add butterflies for any occasion. Stampin' Up!

Meet your new favorite stamp and punch duo—the All Aflutter Bundle! From sweet, delicate butterflies to bold beauties, this bundle makes layering fun and easy. Plus, the punch cuts shapes that stand out beautifully on your projects, giving your cards and crafts a fresh pop.

I added a sentiment from the Framed All Around Stamp Set on the inside of the mini card.

I added more butterflies, another sentiment from All Aflutter, and the Berry Botanical Vellum (from May Product of the Month) on the inside.

There’s still plenty of room to add a personal message. Lastly, I stamped my envelope to coordinate.

Stampin' Up! Waterside Retreat Fun Fold Masculine Birthday card idea-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
Today’s card is a sneak peek of some new designer series paper coming out May 5th.

Drift into calm creativity with the Waterside Retreat 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper. Soft, painterly images and sun-faded hues evoke the laid-back days of a lakeside getaway. From life vests and oars to buoys and bicycles, each sheet of this beautifully designed paper captures a beloved element of lake life. The two cut-apart sheets offer the perfect opportunity to add scenic touches to your handmade cards, scrapbook pages, and more!

I created this card for a friend’s birthday today! I usually struggle with masculine cards; however, this DSP and fun fold design made it so simple!!! I used one of the “cut-apart” images on the bottom “step” of my card. Here’s a look at the side view of this card.

My friend, John, loves to go fishing and he has a dock just like this leading out to his boat. *The punched out image is from the retired Storybook Moments Specialty Designer Series Paper. We get together a couple of times a week to play Mahjong. I chose a sentiment from the retired Game On! Stamp Set for the inside. It was perfect for him!!!

Even this plaid DSP was perfect as these are the colors of his home office! I love it when everything comes together for a special personalized card! (This is why I love handmade cards!!!)

I only created one card this week because I have made this fun fold before. You can click on the images below to view the original post for each of the cards. You can use the same DSP pattern on this style card or choose two different patterns. It’s a great way to use left over pieces! The cards below have a slight variation in the measurement for the “step” in front. You can make them shorter or taller. There are endless possibilities! *There’s no right or wrong way to do Mystery Stampin’!!!
