Wednesday WOW - Paper Blooms Double Fan Fold Card

OMG... I have been wanting to make one of these Double Fan Fold cards for ages... ever since I first saw one on Sam's Mixed Up Craft blog back in August 2020... and many a-one seen since... and I am definitely not disappointed... Thank you Sam...

So this is my first Double Fan Fold card... and I followed Sam's tutorial to the letter... as it creates a nice big card... And I can have to admit... that I absolutely LOVE this card... 

Flowers all fussy cut from the Paper Blooms papers.... shiny Rococo Rose foil from the Love You always Foil Sheet pack...

And check out the 2 butterflies... one stamped and die cut to the top left... and the other fussy die cut to the bottom right...  A sneak peek of a new product suite coming 2nd March... Butterfly Bouquet... more details coming Sunday...

The perfect set of products for you butterfly fanciers... simply gorgeous... may just be the nicest butterflies I have ever had!!

Stampin Up! Products Used

Paper Blooms papers (free with Sale a Bration promotion...but only till Sun 28 Feb)

Love You Always Foil Sheets 

Happiest of Birthdays stamps

Stitched So Sweetly dies

Butterfly Brilliance bundle

And a couple of simple tips for you... 

(1) Don't be too scared to cut your stamps... makes for much more versatility... as I can use Happy Birthday on its own now... on top of each other (as here)  or side by side to form the long sentiment when I want that... And I can still use ... as designed for... when I need that sentiment too...

(2) Gut your foil... I cut in at 1cm (approx 3/8") from each side... 

So now I have a panel I can use for something else another day...

It gets covered by the paper panel in any case...
