Stampin' Up! Impressions Abloom Fun Fold front

This fun fold is called a Tri-Fold Card and it stands looking like a Z… This card is using a brandy new bundle from the 2025-2026 Annual Catalog – called the Impressions Abloom bundle to make these fun flowers, leaves & more. It also uses the Everyday Arches Dies found in the ONLINE EXCLUSIVES and the Everyday Skies 6×6 DSP, also ONLINE. The card base uses the new 25-27 In Color called Cloud Cover. I’m loving this new neutral shade of gray. Don’t you love the layering?! Let me tell you how this fun fold goes together…

Directions:

  • Card base is 10 1/2 x 4 1/4 scored at 3 1/2 & 7 on the long side. Burnish those folds as mountain and valley.
  • Cut DSP layers for each panel: 3 1/8 x 3 7/8 & attach
  • Die cut 3 Basic White pieces using the Everyday Arches Dies, 4th from largest.
  • Use a grid sheet for this next step… with the bottom of the card at the 0 inch point, lay the Arches die cut with top edge of arch at the 5 1/2 mark and attach to the card front
  • Line up the 2nd Basic White die cut for the second panel using the front as a guide – and attach.
  • For the last panel, it’s a little different… place the last Basic White arch die cut face down on panel 2, add adhesive and close last panel over it, adhering to the last panel. Boom –
  • The next layer using the Everyday Arches dies… use the 6th from largest die and the Everyday Skies 6×6 DSP. I cut my 6×6 piece …. x 3. Those 3″ pieces, once die cut, were added to the front and last panels. I cut another using the same size Arches Dies for a coordinating piece for the center panel
  • I used the fairly new To The Point Punch to punch two sentiment panels out of Balmy Blue card stock.
    • I used the embossing buddy to make sure no static or fingerprints were on these two pieces and stamped the sentiment in VersaMark ink using the Impressions Abloom stamp set. I sprinkled White Embossing Powder over tese words and heat embossed with my Heat Tool.
    • These were were attached to the 1st & 2nd panels.
  • The last panel got one more Basic White Arches Die cut. I left this one plain in order to write my appreciation. :O)

Die cut flowers & additional pieces…

  • All of these are die cut using the Impressions Abloom Dies from Basic White, Peach Pie and the In Color Timid Tiger. Each of the flowers got a bit of a sponge dauber with Balmy Blue to accent. For panels 2 & 3 these were adhered directly to the panels to keep them flat for sending through the mail. The front panel got some dimensionals for some of the flowers.
    • NOTE…. the design on the flowers is a die from the Impressions Abloom Dies and for eavch flower, it’s just abit different. It adds a pattern of lines or dots, but doesn’t actually cut through the card stock. Neat, huh?!
  • I added Wink of Stella to all the itty bitty flowers and all the flower centers to make them extra special.

For the envelope… I added more of the same Everyday Skies 6×6 DSP to the flap & trimmed to fit. For the front, I stamped this very fun flower using Balmy Blue ink and the Impressions Abloom stamp set.

The Impressions Abloom Bundle, the new 25-27 In Color inks and card stocks can all be found in the 2025-2026 Annual catalog which will be available for customers to order beginning May 6.
