TWO POCKETS OF WILDFLOWERS

This week I will be featuring the Friends for Life stamp set and dies.  This bundle is part of the Full of Life Suite of products in the 24-25 Annual Catalog.  These products are also on the Last Chance list so once they sell out, they will be gone forever.  So, let's give this set some love this week!

Today's card is a Double Pocket Fun Fold Card.  This is one of the easiest Fun Folds you will ever find.  It is made from one sheet of 8-1/2" x 11" Designer Series Paper (DSP).  I showed how to make the Fun Fold on a recent Learning with Friends.  If  you missed the video you can always watch the replay.  I think it will be worth your time so you can see just how easy the Double Pocket card is to make.

Since it is so easy to make the Fun Fold portion of the card you will have plenty of time to "decorate" it to your hearts content.  Afterall, isn't decorating a card the most fun part of the process?

This Fun Fold was made with the Wildly Flowering DSP which is part of another Suite that also found its way to the Last Chance List.

I decorated the front of the card using die cuts made from both the Friends for Life Bundle and the Wildflower Designs Bundle.  The card for the pocket was made with a brand new OnLine Exclusive called Textured Notes Dies.  Love these!

For the inside of the card I decided to decorate both sides.  On the left side I used the pretty open-work heart die from Friends for Life to make the white heart, and for the right side I layered the two "friend" script dies.

The card for the pocket was stamped with Moody Mauve Hearts and the Friends for Life "Love You" stamp.  It seemed like it was still missing something, so I stamped over it with the "swoosh" stamp using Wild Wheat ink that was stamped-off TWICE.  This was exactly the little pop of color that the panel needed.

I hope you will try to make one of these simple fun folds.  My main hint for this Double Pocket Fun Fold is that non-directional Designer Series Paper works best.  If you use directional paper, some areas are going to be upside down or sideways.  Check out the video for more information.

A list of the products used is shown below, but remember, several are on the Last Chance List so they are only available while supplies last.  But remember -- even though I would love to have you purchase products from me -- my best advice is to USE WHAT YOU HAVE!
