Hello! It’s been a long time since I last participated in Kylie Bertucci’s International Blog Highlights. Readers get to vote on their top five favorites in the gallery and the top 10 winners will get to participate in an International Blog Hop later this month. The theme is “thank you”. This card uses products from the the Fresh as a Daisy Suite. I stumbled onto the Flying Seagull fun fold on Susan Campfield’s blog and couldn’t wait to try it out and this is what I came up with. It looks hard to do but is actually not that difficult!
Here is how I made the card.
- Card base – cut two pieces of Pebbled Path cardstock at 8 1/4″ x 4 1/4″ and score them at 2 1/4″, 4″, 6 1/4″.
- Pop-up piece – cut one 4 1/4″ square Pebbled Path cardstock, one 4″ square of Crushed Curry cardstock and one 3 3/4″ square of Basic White cardstock. Adhere the Pebbled Path and Crushed Curry squares together.
- Stamp daisy images on the 3 3/4″ Basic white square. Stamp the stems and leaves with Garden Green ink. Stamp the daisy outline images with Crushed Curry ink. Stamp the flower centers with Wild Wheat ink. Adhere to the larger square piece.
- Stamp greeting from the Go to Greetings stamp set with Peppled Path ink on scrap piece of Basic White cardstock and cut out with the label die from the Something Fancy Dies. Adhere to stamped image with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals. Embellish with a few 2023-2025 In Color Dots.
- Fresh as a Daisy DSP – cut two pieces of the daisy print at 2″ x 4″ for the outer side panels and cut two pieces of the Pebbled Path woodgrain print at 1 1/2″ x 4. Cut two pieces of Basic White cardstock at 2″ x 4″ to write a message or stamp a greeting on the inside panels.
- With the widest portion of the card bases on the left, fold it up, mountain fold. Fold the two other score lines down, valley folds. Be sure to give a good sharp crease to each of the folds.
- Adhere the two card bases to the stamped image. Place it down and with the second valley fold, right side of base, adhere to the back of the stamped image, leaving a scant 1/4″ border. Repeat with second card base. The folds should be butting up to each other on the back.
- Adhere DSP and Basic White cardstock strips to the wings. Tuck the outer wings under the stamped image.

Pretty card. I love this fold too, and the taller “Flying Finch” version that I used on my card this month. I’m glad Susan Campfield shared these fun folds with us!
Thanks, Kelley! I love your card too and I will give the Flying Finch version a try!
