Simple Fun Fold ~ Look Up Pup ~ Unity Stamp Co.

Hello there crafty friend! 

I was just tickled to see a new pup that is the spitting image of our dog, Satellite. Such a cutie! Though our Satellite would be barking at the butterfly because that's how he talks with everyone. LOL!

I inked up the adorable Look Up Pup and colored it with Copic markers. I then die cut him using a die from the Scallops & Arches {nesting dies}. At this point I decided to make a simple fun fold card. I die cut another piece of white card stock with the same stitched arch die that will be the 'inside' of my card {or fold}. I also die cut the blue pattern paper and the pink grid paper {shown on the inside photo below}. I tore the blue paper right where I scored the focal panel so it would bend easily for my card to open.

Copic markers used:

Pup: E000, E11, E15, E59, C2, C5

Eyes: C0, C2, E59, E15

Butterfly: V000, V01, V12

Grass / Leaves / Stems: YG11, YG23

Flowers: Y38

Sky: B000

All the fun pattern papers for this card are from the fabulous Swing into Spring {paper pack}. Such pretty papers!! I die cut the floral print using the largest die from the Scallops & Rectangles {nesting dies}. It's adhered to the yellow paper that measures 5-1/2 x 4-1/4". And then the whole panel is adhered to a white panel that also measures 5-1/2 x 4-1/4". Adhering the two base papers gives the card a sturdier base.

So the simple fun fold is achieved with the two stitched arch panels adhered together on the left side. And I hid the coloring that bled through the back of my focal image using that pink grid pattern paper. Lots of space to write a little note and sign the card.

I stamped the sentiment and trimmed it. I adhered it to the side of the focal image. It also acts as a little tab so the recipient can open the card just by lifting from the sentiment. I finished off the card with a few sequins from my stash.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

I hope you have a wonderful day!

Inky hugs,
