Welcome to the March 2020 Maui Achievers Blog Hop!
Follow along and check out all the other blogs in the hop (click on the names of the participants in the list below my signature) so you can see some fabulous cards and projects created by other demonstrators who also earned the Stampin’ Up!® Maui incentive trip coming up in July of 2020 – hopefully…depending on COVID-19. (If you are receiving this blog post by email, click HERE to see the hop.)
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products I used for each card linked to where you can find these items in my online store.
PDF Tutorial…Click here to access and download a direction sheet for these two cards.
Here is the one made with the Follow Your Art paper. This is what it looks like closed…
This is what it unfolds to look like open…
Measurements…
Whisper White Cardstock: 4-1/4” x 7-1/2” scored parallel to short end at 2-1/2” and 5” then diagonally scored on the outside two panels and scraps as shown… for stamping and punching umbrella top, umbrella handle and flower bunch
Coastal Cabana Cardstock: Scrap for punching 2″ Circle
Silver Foil Sheet: Scrap for punching Starburst
Follow Your Art Designer Paper: Four pieces that are 2-1/4” x 4”
Directions
Stamp, color and punch umbrella top. Stamp and punch handle. Stamp, color and fussy-cut flower bunch.
Stamp raindrops on punched out Coastal Cabana circle, mount onto the Silver Foil Starburst, add handle, then add the umbrella top with Dimensionals.
Cut the two colorful pieces of designer paper diagonally from upper left to lower right. Add to the outer two card base panels. Cut one light blue designer paper diagonally from upper right to lower left. Add to the diagonal sections that appear behind the front panels when the card is closed. Stamp sentiment on other light blue piece of designer paper, and add to the inside middle area of the card base.
Attach the flower bunch to the inside. Close the card and attach the umbrella layered piece with Dimensionals so it’s just attached to the left section. The umbrella will rotate a bit as the card opens and closes. So keep that in mind.
And here is the one made with the Lily Impressions paper. This is what that one looks like closed…
This is what it unfolds to look like open…
Measurements
Whisper White Cardstock: 4-1/4” x 7-1/2” scored parallel to short end at 2-1/2” and 5” then diagonally scored on the outside two panels as shown… and scraps for stamping and punching umbrella top, umbrella handle and flower bunch
Silver Foil Sheet: Scrap for punching Starburst
Lily Impressions Designer Paper: Three pieces that are 2-1/4” x 4” (two printed with the small lilies and one Grapefruit Grove)…and scraps for punching 2″ Circle (Garden Green) and for stamping and cutting umbella top (Bermuda Bay)
Directions
On Whisper White Cardstock Scraps stamp and punch umbrella top and handle. Stamp, color and fussy-cut flower bunch.
Stamp umbrella top and cut it out. Layer onto the punched umbella top.
Layer the 2” designer paper circle onto the Silver Foil Starburst. Add handle. Then add the umbrella top and flower bunch with Dimensionals.
Cut the two lily printed pieces of designer paper diagonally from upper left to lower right. Add to the outer two card base panels. Cut Grapefruit Grove designer paper diagonally from upper right to lower left. Add to the diagonal sections that appear behind the front panels when the card is closed.
Stamp sentiment and smaller flower bunch on the inside middle area of the card base.
Close the card and attach the umbrella layered piece with Dimensionals so it’s just attached to the left section. The umbrella will rotate a bit as the card opens and closes. So keep that in mind.
I also have a video where I shared step-by-step how to make this type of fun-fold card. So if you’d like to watch that, click here. In the video I mention that I should rework the measurements so that this card can fit into an A4 size envelope. But guess what?…Though these measurements were made for letter size envelopes, with a straight conversion to metric (if you wish) this card WILL fit into an A4 size envelope, too! Yay! So those of you outside the US, no need to make anything narrower or taller.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared today. Have fun on the hop! And enjoy seeing all those inspiring ideas made by fellow trip achievers!

MY ONLINE PAPER CRAFTERS CLUB IS LOOKING FOR NEW MEMBERS We are looking for more to join our online Paper Crafters club.

In one of those months, you would reap the hosting rewards (free merchandise based on the club orders). And then you’d also be able to get in on monthly product perks that would be sent to you along with your monthly club cards.
I decided to pull out some of my 2019-20 Annual Catalog products that I put by the wayside when the seasonal catalogs began (the Magnolia Lane Designer Paper, Petal Pink Organdy Striped Ribbon, and Basics Adhesive-Backed Sequins). And I paired them with some of our newer products (the Under My Umbrella Stamp Seta and Umbrella Builder Punch) to create some Twisted Gatefold Cards so I could share them in my latest Online Paper Crafting Class.
This fun fold may look complicated, but it is a super easy to make. And when closed the card fits into a medium size envelope, so mailing it off to a friend is no problem.
I uploaded the recorded version of my Facebook Live video to my YouTube channel (since I know not everyone is ON Facebook). And then I was able to share it here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video (you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog), scroll through the close-up photos, check out the products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video. Below are measurements, more close-up photos, and a product list for the card I demonstrated.

Many ask about the storage pieces in my craft space that can be viewed behind me during my lives. the cabinetry is mostly from Ikea. And the great organizational pieces are from Stamp-n-Storage. Click here to see my post on March 3, 2016 where I shared many details and photos of the new space – now 4 years ago (including some photos of the old space). Click here for my March 10, 2016 post where I shared my video tour. Then click here to see my June 18, 2018 post where I shared some of my updated pieces in that main section of the room.
I love how Stamp-n-Storagehas transformed my craft space! And I’m excited to announce that this weekend you can get FREE SHIPPING on your orders.

I’m playing with fun fold cards again. (surprise surprise) And I’ve really been into bringing Vellum Cardstock into the mix of those cards. I love the challenge of having transparency in parts to show off the depth of the card while at the same time trying to conceal adhesives. The Silver Elite Retreat invitation I made for Cheryl is one example. And my upcoming project in the March 2020 All Stars Exclusive Tutorials being released tomorrow is another.
This time I made a vellum-based slide-out pocket fun fold using the Lily Impressions Designer Paper, the Under My Umbrella Stamp Set, and Umbrella Builder Punch. Cheryl, my mom and I made the blue version of this card at my Silver Elite Retreat this month. And the purple one became my project for my past Wednesday’s Facebook Live Online Paper Crafting Class.
In my class I also shared tips and tricks for making this card without any adhesive showing AND the differences between this card and ones I’ve made before – what my thinking was when I changed up the measurements.
I uploaded the recorded version of my Facebook Live video to my YouTube channel (since I know not everyone is ON Facebook). And then I was able to share it here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video (you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog), scroll through the close-up photos, check out the products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video. Click here to see the slide-out pocket fun folds I made with the February 2020 Paper Pumpkin kit. Click here to see some fun ones that I shared on September 29, 2018. Below are measurements, more close-up photos, and a product list for the cards I demonstrated.
By the way I forgot to mention that I added extra rhinestones on the Vellum in the “It’s Your Day” area of the card. After adding those two rhinestones, I then put glue dots behind them on the other side of the Vellum to connect the Vellum to the Whisper White layer.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.

4-1/4” x 11” scored parallel to short end at 3-1/4” and 2-1/4”

My latest Stamp-n-Storage purchase? I love the new 6×7 Storage Pockets. The are great for holding my Magnet Sheets (also from Stamp-n-Storage) which hold my dies.
I store them so I can see the dies from the front. And I store my info sheet (that reminds me of the die set name and the number of dies that came in that set) right within behind the magnetic sheet.
I suppose I could even add labels to the tabs. But I haven’t taken the time to do that yet. Hahaha!

Remember the cards I shared on January 16th that I put together with the new Mini Trimmer? Well there was one that I showed in that video that I’ve been meaning to photograph and share with you with close-up photos. And yay!! I also have a printable tutorial for it.
It was so fun to make, and it inspired the cards that I featured that day. Here’s the video from that post. You can see this card at around the 14 minute mark. (You can just click on the image below if you are already on my blog.)
I’ve been making several of these, and they are currently the welcome card I am sending to each new team member joining our Stampers With ART group right now.
