I’m excited to join the Fancy Fold Design Team for another bog hop this month! This month we’re making a Two Fold Panel Card. It’s an easy card to make and it looks really neat. Claire Ottaway, a UK demonstrator, shares a video to show the step by steps for this card. I’ve also created a basic PDF with the measurements and instructions if you’d like to try this yourself. Make sure to grab it at the end of this post!
For my design I ended up using the Sweet Ice Cream stamp set and Ice Cream Corner Designer Series Paper. I’m just loving this suite of products! The paper is so colourful and there are some fun designs. Plus the stamp set with coordinating punch is so fun. Once I figured out these pieces I came up with my colour combination. I went with Purple Posy and Cinnamon Cider, both of which are current In Colours… although Purple Posy will be leaving soon 🙁
For my card base and belly band I used Purple Posy. I also used a piece of Cinnamom Cider to frame the ice cream cone on the belly band. For the ice cream cone itself I used Crumb Cake and Cinnamon Cider for the cone and then Purple Posy for the ice cream, using a Stampin’ Write Marker.
For the patterned paper, I chose 3 different designs. And I love how well they work together! I debated about adding a fourth design on the inside of the card. But I decided to use the same design filled with ice cream cones that I used on the outside.
Since I went with a simple ice cream cone on my belly band I decided to add a phrase to the inside of the card. I used Purple Posy and Cinnamon Cider for the phrases.
This was a really fun card to make. And I really like how this Two Fold Panel Card turned out. Here’s the full card…
