Hello & happy Tuesday! Welcome to our hop… the theme is a fun fold card so you’ll see lots of creativity today. If this little snail doesn’t make you smile, I don’t know what will! It’s just plain c-u-t-e! So this is really a Bookmark Side Panel Card. And that bookmark is on the right with the 3/8″ Bordered Ribbon in Hydrangea Hue. It slips in & out of that small embossed ‘sleeve’ (this was as scrap I had from …..) The card base is Hydrangea Hue & the DSP is Painted Patterns 2026-2028 In Color, Hydrangea Hue.

How to make this card…

• card base is 8 1/4 x 5 1/2
  • with short side at the top at the 1″ mark on the right side of the paper trimmer, cut from 1 to 5 1/4″; repeat on opposite side
  • with long side at top, score in between the cut lines 1, 2, & 5 1/4. Burnish score lines
  • with same long side at top, score @ 4 1/4 on the outside edges of the cut lines.
  • with same long side at top, score @ 6 1/4 the full 5 1/2″ (the bookmark will fit between 6 1/4 & 8 1/4 area)
  • cut & scored, it will look as in the top/down photo below

To decorate with DSP:

• cut DSP 4 x 5 1/4 & 1 3/4 x 5 1/4 – trim these leaving 3/4″ in shape of squared C – (with short side @ top & line up @ 3/4″ on right side of trimmer, cut from 3/4 to 4 1/2; repeat for the other two sides
• cut 2 – 3 x 3 1/4 for panel insert on front & back of card
• cut 1 1/2 x 5 for bookmark
• 3/4 x 1 3/4 ‘sleeve’ for bookmark (mine is an embossed strip)
• 2 1/4 x I 6 for envelope flap

Basic White panels:

• cut 2 – 2 3/4 x 3 for stamping (front) or for your own words (back)
• 1 1/2 x 5 for bookmark

The above photo is the back of this card.

To decorate the small Basic White panels: stamp the snail in Memento black ink and color with Stampin’ Blends with Crumb Cake. The sentiment is stamped in Hydrangea Hue and comes from the same stamp set as the snail – Wild Bunch – a SU! June POTM (Product of the month). The checkered portion is also in Crumb Cake ink and from the Wild Bunch stamp set. The front of the envelope is stamped the same way, all across the bottom. This is just so friendly and could be masaculine or feminine – and could be for a child also!
