Hello and welcome to my blog; today I have a fun little fancy fold card to share with you. Today's card features the Lovely You Stamp Set and the Seasons of Fun Host Stamp Set. Here's a look at today's card.
Tips & Tricks:
A Double Dutch Door card usually has three panels that open up. One typically opens from the top and two from the sides to show the inside of the card. If you do a Pinterest search or even a Google search you will find many variations. So, as with most fun folds there's many ways to do it. I designed this version to use only one sheet of cardstock as the base where most have two pieces with strange measurements and gluing and all that kind of stuff. If you follow me you know I love cards that are super easy but look hard, and this is one of them with this version. And it does fit into one of the Stampin' Up! Medium Basic White or Very Vanilla Envelopes.
For the outside of the card I used some of the Cute Halloween Designer Series Paper to decorate it. This spooky but cute pack of 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper allows you to create cute handmade Halloween projects. This high-quality printed paper is excellent scrapbook paper, cardmaking paper, and much more. The Stampin' Up! artists created these designs while listening to spooky podcasts to set the mood for creating Halloween images, prints, and patterns. Some of these designs can be colored. Designed in traditional Halloween colors, the Cute Halloween Designer Series Paper will please both the little ones and the grown-ups! There's 48 sheets (6 each of 8 double sided designs) in each pack; so there's plenty to play with. And since the stamped image from the Seasons of Fun Host/hostess set are equally as cute it was the prefect match for my project today.
Celebrate the changing seasons and holidays with the Seasons of Fun Stamp Set. With cute images of seasonal activities, this stamp set will complement your favorite holiday sentiments. Plus, the clean outlined images leave the coloring up to you! This is your chance to get creative or to customize the colors to your personal holiday theme. You can only get this stamp set with Stampin' Rewards from a qualifying order, party, or event. One of the great things about Stampin' Up!'s Stampin' Rewards system is you can earn them on your own order of $150 retail as well as hosting.
To color this cute little Halloween image I used Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie, and Cajun Craze Stampin' Blends to color her pumpkin costume. I always start with the lightest shades first and build up to the darker shades. Then I come back with the lighter shade to blend everything together. You will find the full list of colors that I used below. Since this was a fun fold card I kept everything pretty simple. I stamped the sentiment in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and used one of the dies from the Hippo & Friends Dies to cut out the colored image.
