Stampin’ Up! Color & Contour + Delightfully Eclectic Fun Fold

We have a challenge of a ‘fun fold’ for Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Blog Hop Group today. I’ve combined Delightfully Eclectic DSP and the Color & Contour bundle for my card.

Stampin' Up! Color & Contour Fun Fold

This fun fold uses a 5 1/2 x 12 piece of Designer Series Paper. Here I’m using Delightfully Eclectic. It’s scored @ 1 3/4, 4 3/4, & 7 3/4 and folded accordian style or valley, mountain, valley. Here’s the finished card, open.

Using the Scalloped Contour Dies, cut 3 from Bubble Bath card stock cut 3 1/4 x 4 1/2. Begin by adhering to the back panel first, centering the die cut. Fold DSP at 2nd score line and attach 2nd Bubble Bath die cut so that it is even with the die cut on the bottom panel. Remember, the adhesive will not cover the entire die cut as there is some ‘overhang’. See photo.

Close entirely and attach the front Scalloped Contour die cut. I do this by turning the die to the wrong side and add adhesive to back side as per this photo. That way I do not put adhesive where it is not needed!

Cut 3 panels of Basic White card stock and decorate as desired. For the front panel I used a Color & Contour sentiment and stamped it in Memento ink. I then used the blotchy dot stamp and Bubble Bath ink to stamp over the sentiment. I attached this to the front Scalloped Contour die then added a flower already put together from the Paper Florist Dies (cut from Fresh Freesia and Basic White) and added it as you see it. As a final touch to the front, I added three Tinsel Gems in Berry Burst. For the second section of this fun fold, I stamped the flower in Memento ink from Color & Contour stamp set, then colored it with the additional stamps provided: Fresh Freesia for the flowers and Old Olive for the leaves. I then stamped the sentiment on this panel in Memento ink. For the last panel I stamped the sentiment from Color & Contour stamp set in Memento ink, then the splotchy dots in Bubble Bath and added the panel. Once everything was together, I attached a panel of Old Olive card stock ( 4 1/4 x 5 1/2) to the very back to add strength and stability to the card. All done!

The envelope got more of the Delightfully Eclectic DSP to the flap, & trimmed to fit. For the front I stamped the leaves in Old Olive, the bud in Memento, then filled the bud with Bubble Bath – all from the Color & Contour stamp set. This is such a sweet, delicate card. I absolutely love it. I hope you do as well.

Stampin’ Up! Color and Contour Bundle

Oh golly – a new set fell on my desk today – what a shame… 🥴 It’s called Color & Contour and the coordinating dies are Scalloped Contour Dies. Oh I DID have fun and I see more of this set in my future. Here’s what I did.

Colors & Contours Bundle – #1

I’m not sure this is a very good photo, but you can see the card- and a hint of what I did on the inside. But let’s talk about the front first. I took a Basic White panel and stamped the outline of the flower in Fresh Freesia ink three times. I then stamped the filler for the flower using Fresh Freesia ink again, but stamping off once each time. One of the neat parts about the filler stamp… it has no direct ‘fit’ to the outline stamp, which makes it really easy! I colored the centers with Daffodil Delight Stampin Blends. I then randomly stamped the leaf image in Garden Green ink. I stamped the sentiment from the Color & Contour stamp set using Stazon ink on Fresh Freesia card stock and die cut it with Stitched Rectangles dies (carrying over!) I ran a bit of Seal + on the back of this stamped piece and wove the Gingham Ribbon in Bumblebee back & forth. I added dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card. I decided I wanted to split this panel so cut it, leaving the right side panel larger. I adhered both panels to Fresh Freesia card stock with liquid glue. These two pieces I adhered to a Thick Basic White card base with dimensionals – and the card front was done!

Colors & Contours Bundle – #2

For the inside of the card I used the largest of the dies in the Scalloped Contour Dies to die cut a basic White panel. I stamped the flower and leaf as before, coloring the center with Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends. This was adhered to a panel of Fresh Freesia card stock with liquid glue, then to the inside of the card. Done!

Colors & Contours Bundle – #3

For the envelope I followed the same procedure for the flower: used the outline stamp in Fresh Freesia ink, then the filler stamp with stamped off Fresh Freesia ink, and colored the flower center with Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends. I covered the envelope flap with a panel of Hand-Penned DSP and stamped the open leaf design on that in Garden Green ink. Voila!!! This is such a bright, cheery card and I really like this new bundle.

And this is the bundle…

Aren’t those scalloped rectangles fun? and there is a die for the daisy like flower and the larger flower as well. Love the fonts, so perfect with the stamps. And the scalloped edge – oh yes!

Ok, I’ve rattled on enough… As you already know, most of today’s items will be available for customer purchase May 4. Hope you are making your list.
