Gone Fishing Accordion Style

 

Let's Go Fishing Suite 

I was so excited to get my hands on Stampin' Up!s 2023/34 Annual Catalogue this past May.  And, I wasn't disappointed as there were so many wonderful stamp sets and products to choose from.  

Since I really enjoy creating masculine stamp sets and scenes, one of the first sections of the catalogue I search is the Hobbies and Recreation section on pages 78 through 93. 

Wow I had some hard decisions to make, but bar none, my favourite new product was the Let's Go Fishing Suite, which includes stamps, dsp, dies, and an awesome 3-D embossing folder called Twisted Rope EF.  No hesitation here, it was the first item I loaded into my shopping cart.  

The Let's Go Fishing Suite Collection #161546 is reasonably priced at $99 CDN and includes: Gone Fishing Bundle (10% discount) Stamp set and coordinating dies, Let's Go Fishing 12 x 12 paper and the Twisted Rope 3D Embossing Folder.  

If you're not interested in the embossing folder or beautiful designer paper in the suite, you can order the bundle which includes the 16 piece photopolymer stamp set and 17 coordinating dies.  It's called Gone Fishing Bundle.   

One of the first things I did with this set was experiment with the stamps and dies and just played with applying different colours and textures to the stamped images and cutting them out.  What fun!  

It's very easy to get the colours perfectly applied as most of the stamps are a 2-step process.  First you  stamp the base image usually in Momento Black Ink and then you stamp the colour with the coordinating fill image.  Easy peasy! 

HERE ARE MY CARDS: 

Gone Fishing Accordion Fold Birthday Cards 

The card fronts were basically a mix and match of the fabulous dsp designs mounted on an 8 1/2 x 5 1/2" card stock base.  Bases were in BoHo Blue, and Very Vanilla.  Mats measure 5 1/4" x 4" and were in Calypso Coral and in Pebble Path.  For the labels I used the Deckled Rectangle Dies.  

The Deckled Rectangle Dies are nested dies that have a torn cardstock look.  I totally love these dies and they look beautiful in all my projects.   

Accordion Fold Interior Surprise:  

What I love about these cards is the surprise you get when you open the card.  It's definitely got a WOW factor.  Here's what it looks like when you open the card:

Here's what you need:

• 10" x 5 1/4" piece of Designer Series Paper
• A neutral cardstock piece for the sentiment that is 5" x 1 3/4".  On one of my samples above I cut two of these panels in Very Vanilla cardstock and I glued them to each side of the accordion fold. 
• I used scraps of coordinating cardstock for the sentiment squares and circles and Very Vanilla cardstock for the sentiments 
• I followed a Youtube video on how to create this card and you can find it on Cheryl Hamilton's blog by clicking here. 

I hope you enjoyed this quick and easy fun fold card and will try to make one yourself.  You'll be delighted with the results. I love the fact that  I can use up my DSP stash and get two cards from one 12/ x 12" sheet of designer paper.  

I'd love to hear what you think of this card.  Please leave your comments below. 

Happy Stamping!
