Double Flap Fun Fold Gift Card Holder

Happy Monday! I coming to you today on a very dreary Monday. It’s cold, wet and windy here in SE Pennsylvania…perfect crafting weather! I was a bit MIA last week and didn’t get to post my Fun Fold card for Jeanie’s Mystery Fun Fold series. I had all the elements on my desk but not yet assembled. So, like most days I was up very early (4 am early) this morning and finished it. Better late than never, as this is a card that I’ll be sending to one of my daughters for Halloween.

You may recognize the Designer Series Paper I used here if you’ve been around Stampin’ Up! for a while, it’s the Monster Bash DSP, which has been retired for a few years. Like many, I never use all the holiday DSP before it retires and have no problem with using it beyond retirement!

As mentioned above, the inspiration for this card came from Jeanie Stark’s Mystery Monday Challenge. You can see all the instructions to create it on Jeanie’s blog HERE. I did customize it to hold a gift card. So let me take you through the way the card unfolds…

Here’s the closed front. The not-so-scary vampire is framed with a frame die from the Storybook Friends dies. The Crushed Curry panel is embossed with the Distressed Tile 3D embossing folder.

And with the first flap opened…

Next with the second flap opened to the inside…

The sentiment and bat images are from the (retired) Wonderfully Wicked stamp set.

This fun fold was really fun to create and I know will be well received, especially with the gift card!!

Take care,

Rosanne
