Today I have a beautiful Winter Wishes card to share with you. Not just that but it’s a Winter Meadow fun fold card and I have a tutorial for you too.
The Winter Meadow suite is available in my online Stampin’ Up! store from 6 September and includes a stamp set, dies, stunning paper and embellishments. Here’s the first card I’ve created with these products…
It’s an offset gate fold card, so although it’s a fun fold, it’s easy to make and doesn’t use up any extra card or paper than a standard card. I did add a layer inside with an extra sentiment and stamping…
This first card has a Moody Mauve card base and I coloured the stamps with Moody Mauve and Lost Lagoon ink. I decided to make another one and this time chose to use Blueberry Bushel and Shaded Spruce. You can see how I coloured the stamps and made this Winter Meadow fun fold card in my tutorial…
