Gosh, I love a good fun fold card, and I especially love being able to create scenes and stories with my crafting projects. There’s something magical about watching a story unfold, quite literally, as you open a card. Today, I’m thrilled to share with you a delightful card tutorial that brings a serene duck pond scene to life.

The Card Design
This card features a charming scene of a momma duck and her duckling swimming in a pond. When the card is closed, you can see the adorable ducks gliding through the water, with the pond extending beautifully in the background. As you open the card, more of the serene landscape reveals itself, adding depth and interest to the design.

Materials and Inspiration
To create this enchanting scene, I used the Lily Pond Lane Designer Series Paper from Stampin’ Up. The tranquil colors and detailed patterns of this paper perfectly capture the essence of a peaceful pond. The words on the card are from the Charming Duck Pond set, which complements the visual elements wonderfully. For a touch of texture and added interest, I included some Dappled speckle dots accents. All these elements are part of the cohesive and beautiful Lily Pond Suite.

Envelopes
One of the great things about this arrow fold card is its practicality. Despite its intricate appearance, it folds down to a standard size that fits comfortably in a regular medium-sized envelope. This makes it perfect for both gifting and mailing.
