Fun Fold Horse Cards [Carousel Horse Series #7 & 8]

FUN FOLD HORSE CARDS

Who says the horses in the Stampin' Up! Carousel Horse stamp set / die bundle have to be carousel horses? In these fun fold cards I used them as regular horses. Fun Fact: Did you know these Easel and Z Fold cards actually are the same fold? They just have different orientations, one is portrait and one is landscape.

The woodgrain paper on the silhouette card is from the One Horse Open Sleigh Designer Paper coming out July 6 in the Online Exclusives, click here to learn more. The Azure landscape paper is from the Fresh as a Daisy collection.

  1. Thank you for the inspiration. I love to use fun folds & creating a silhouette from a stamp is a wonderful idea.

      Glad you like the idea! Silhouettes are useful for a lot of cards – I like them for Halloween too!

  2. Had to CASE the silhouette easel fold for my horse-loving sister-in-law’s birthday card! Both of your cards are terrific, but that silhouette one really grabbed my attention!

      You sister-in-law is going to love your card. I’m so glad you enjoyed the silhouette technique!
