DIY: Love & Strength Fun Fold Card

By | October 14, 2024

Hello my Stampin’ Friends

Take a moment to send words of care to a loved one with the Love & Strength Stamp Set. This stamp set includes a variety of thoughtful sentiments to express support for someone going through hard times. The delicately simple images feature an open-line style for different coloring techniques. Or leave the images bare for your recipient to spend some meditative time to color it in themselves. 

Love & Strength

Here are step-by-step instructions to create this gorgeous floral greeting card:

  • Start with a Misty Moonlight Cardstock base and create a tri-fold card structure.
  • Layer the 3 front panels with Basic White Cardstock.
  • Layer the 3 front panels with the Regal Winter Designer Series Paper (DSP)
  • Cut a Basic White Cardstock circle for the central panel from the Spotlight on Nature Dies. Splatter the circle with Misty Moonlight Ink using the splatter image.
  • Cut a slightly larger Misty Moonlight Cardstock from the same dies.
  • Stamp the floral image from the Love & Strength Stamp Set twice on Thick Basic White Card and color the flowers with Balmy Blue and Misty Moonlight Stampin Blends and the leaves with the Old Olive Stampin’ Blends for depth. Fussy cut them out with our Paper Snips.
  • Arrange and adhere the flowers and leaves onto the Basic White Circle with Stampin’ Dimensionals, slightly overlapping onto the blue frame.
  • Tie a small bow using the 2023-2025 In Color Jute Trim. I separated a couple of strands because the jute was too thick.
  • Attach the bow at the base of the white background for texture
  • Mount the circular design onto the center of the front panel of the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

To complete the card, I added a small heart and splatter image from the same stamp set to the back, enhancing cohesion with the front design. For a coordinated appearance, I adhered matching Regal Winter Designer Series Paper (DSP) to the envelope, mirroring the pattern used on the card’s front. This attention to detail creates a unified and polished look for the entire card set.
