Sketched Butterflies Arrow Fun Fold Card

ARROW FUN FOLD CARD

I’m thrilled to share a new fun fold card tutorial with you, featuring the beautiful Sketched Butterflies Bundle from Stampin’ Up. This card not only showcases a unique folding technique but also highlights my personal touch with vibrant coloring and exquisite design elements.

About the Card
I’ve crafted a Butterfly Landscape Arrow Fun Fold card that truly captures the essence of creativity and elegance. For this project, I used the Thoughtful Journeys Designer Series Paper as the backdrop, which perfectly complements the delicate butterflies. The highlight of this card is the butterfly itself, which pops out with a stunning 3-D effect, thanks to the precise cuts from the Sketched Butterflies Dies.Coloring these intricate butterflies was a delightful process. I used Stampin’ Blends markers, which allowed for smooth blending and added depth to the butterfly’s wings, bringing the image to life with a burst of color.

About the Sketched Butterflies Bundle
The Sketched Butterflies Bundle is truly versatile, comprising both the stamp set and dies. It’s fantastic for any occasion—you can easily switch the greeting to adapt this card from a joyful birthday greeting to a heartfelt sympathy card. This adaptability makes it a must-have in your crafting collection. Learn more here. 

Fit and Envelope
This fun fold card has been designed to fit perfectly inside a standard Stampin’ Up Medium Sized Envelope, making it as practical as it is beautiful. It’s the perfect size for mailing or gifting without the hassle of finding a suitable envelope.

Crafting the Card
 I’ve prepared a free PDF that includes step-by-step instructions, a template, measurements, and a complete supply list. Everything is organized to ensure a smooth crafting experience. Additionally, I’ve created two helpful videos: one explaining the fold technique and another demonstrating how to use the Stampin’ Blends Markers to achieve beautiful coloring on your butterfly.

More in the Series
If you enjoy this tutorial, there’s more to explore! Check out other tutorials in my Landscape Arrow Fold series, available in the SERIES section. Each tutorial is designed to inspire and enhance your crafting skills with new techniques and ideas.

I hope this tutorial brings as much joy to your crafting time as it did to mine. The Sketched Butterflies Bundle is not just about creating cards; it’s about expressing creativity and sending a piece of art that carries your personal touch.

Happy crafting!
