Three Amazing Alternative Fun Fold Cards made with the July 2024 Paper Pumpkin Kit - Painted Petals

Hi Everyone and welcome to Paper Pumpkin Week here on Creative Chelsey. Over the next two days I am going to share with you 6 card ideas you can make with one set of supplies from the July 2024 Paper Pumpkin Kit called Painted Petals. Because I was so late in getting these cards out and next month’s kit is already on its way I decided to combine the cards into two tutorials.


The projects from this kit are amazing with beautiful floral designs and bright happy colors. I also love the greetings that are in the stamp set. They are perfect for any type of card. The kit creates a total of 9 greeting cards 3 in three different designs. If you would like to watch me unbox the kit and create these cards click on the playlist below.

Each month I take the contents from the paper pumpkin kits and make alternative projects. My cards are easy to follow and can be made by both experienced or new paper crafter. You may need just a couple other products to complete them. You can follow along with me using supplies you already have or purchase any products you see me use from my online store. A full supply list is below or on my blog – www.creativechelsey.com

Today I am sharing with you my first set of alternative cards. I have made all three cards as fun fold cards. These cards are super easy to make. There are some great tips & tricks I share so make sure to watch the whole video.

Card #1 –

Thick Basic White Cardbase – 4 ¼” x 11” scored at 5 ½”

Melon Mambo Cardbase – kit

Mossy Meadow Cardstock – 3 ¼” x 4 ½”

Melon Mambo Die Cut Flower – kit

Greeting Label – kit

Sequins – kit


1- Trim the Melon Mambo Cardbase along the score line at 4 ¼”. Cut the front down to 3 1/8” x 4 3/8” to frame the flowers. I trimmed 1/8” from the right side & 1” from the left side. ¾” from the top & 3/8” from the bottom.

2- From the back solid Melon Mambo side cut in half to 2 ¾” x 4 ¼”. Add a ½” score line that runs parallel to the long edge. Fold.


3- On the front of the White Cardbase, place the bottom edge inside the folded Melon Mambo piece, DO NOT GLUE. Make sure all the sides are lined up. Place only the front of the cardbase into your paper trimmer and cut a diagonal line through both the Melon Mambo piece and the front of the cardbase. This will insure that they are the same angle.


4- Now adhere the Melon Mambo piece to the bottom of the White Cardbase with the ½” fold attached to the back. The angle cuts from both the front of the cardbase and the Melon Mambo piece should meet together.


5- From the White piece that was cut from the front white cardbase. Stamp the Diagonal Lined design along the angled edge in Old Olive. Then cut off the stamped edge at ½” keeping the angle the same.

Attach this to the back of the front White Cardbase flap so you see about 1/8” of so of the diagonal detail. When the card is closed you will see this detail on top of the Melon Mambo piece.


6- Add the Soft Melon Mambo Flowers (from the cardbase in the kit) to the Mossy Meadow cardstock. Then add to the center of the card with dimensionals only attached to the top white area of the cardbase.

7- Add the Melon Mambo Die Cut Flowers to the center of the Soft Melon Mambo Flowers with dimensionals.


8- Stamp your greeting in Old Olive ink on a matching label from the kit. Add to the right area near the flowers with dimensionals.

9- Add three Sequins from the kit.

 






Card #2

Thick Basic White Cardbase – 5 ½” x 8 ½” scored at 2 ½” & 6 ¾”

Old Olive Cardbase – kit

White Die Cut Flower – kit

Greeting Label – kit

Sequins – kit


1- Cut the Old Olive Cardbase in half at the score line 4 ¼”. From the back Old Olive side trim a piece that is 1 ¾” x 5 ½”. From the front piece trim around the flowers to 2 ½” x 5 ½”. I removed ¼” from the left and 1 ½” from the right.


2- On the back of the 1 ½” front piece stamp the Diagonal Lined Design across the long edge in Calypso Coral ink. Trim this detail off at ½” and add it behind the Soft White Flower piece on the right edge so about 1/8” show.


3- Add the Soft Flowers to the left 2 ½” flap on the cardbase. Add the Old Olive piece to the 1 ¾” right flap.


4- Add the White Die Cut Flowers to the left flap with about ¼” hanging off the edge. Add this piece with dimensionals only on the left flap.

5- Stamp your greeting in Calypso Coral on a matching label and add over the flower stems with dimensionals.

6- Add three sequins.

 




Card #3

Basic White Cardbase – 5 ½” x 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼”

Calypso Coral Cardbase – kit

Basic White Cardstock – 4 1/8” x 5 3/8”

Calypso Coral Die Cut Flower – kit

Greeting Label – kit

Sequins – kit


1- Separate the front of the Calypso Coral Cardbase in half at the score line 4 ¼”. Adhere the Calypso Coral back piece to the front of the White Cardbase with adhesive ONLY around the outside edge, keep it to a small amount.

2- Use a large nesting shapes die like the Spotlight On Nature Dies to create an opening on the front of the cardbase. Make sure to open the cardbase so it doesn’t cut through the back, it should cut all the way through both pieces on the front.


3- Adhere the 4 1/8” x 5 3/8” White piece to the back of the front of the cardbase. Separate the large shape cut outs, white from the Calypso Coral. Adhere the White piece back into the opening. I added adhesive only around the outside edge. 


Use the next size down to cut out a smaller opening. This will give you a white border around the opening. Make sure to open the cardbase so it doesn’t cut through the back.


4- From the Front of the Calypso Coral cardbase Soft Flowers, score ¼” along the right edge. Fold and adhere it to the back of the White Cardbase on the right side. This will create a third panel that will sit inside the card showing through the opening.


5- Adhere the Calypso Coral Die Cut Flower to the front of the cardbase in the center of the opening. Add with dimensionals only at the top and bottom where it will attach to the front of the cardbase.

6- Stamp your greeting on the matching label in Memento Black ink. Adhere to the bottom right corner with dimensionals.

7- Add three sequins.

 



I have also created a video walking you through each step.
