“Hop Into Spring” Arched Accordion Card – An Easter Fun Fold Card Tutorial
Hi friends!
I’m so excited to share a brand new handmade card tutorial with you today that’s bursting with Easter magic and whimsical charm. This fun fold is an extended tri-fold card with five uniquely arched panels, creating a delightful storybook scene that unfolds one panel at a time—or can be fully expanded to display like a standing centerpiece. Whether you’re an experienced crafter or brand new to card making, this one is sure to spark some serious inspiration.
Why You’ll Love This Card Design
This Easter fun fold card is like flipping through the pages of a charming springtime tale. Each arched panel showcases a new scene with the cutest bunnies—some are reading, some are harvesting, and one even pops right out of a tree!

This Easter fun fold card is like flipping through the pages of a charming springtime tale. Each arched panel showcases a new scene with the cutest bunnies—some are reading, some are harvesting, and one even pops right out of a tree!
The magic happens with a mix of Stampin’ Up! Dies and Designer Papers, Everyday Arches Dies – used to shape each panel with a graceful arch, Peekaboo Forest Dies – for the adorable tree and Storybook Moments Specialty Designer Paper – where those sweet bunny images come from.
The greeting starts on the front panel with “Hip Hop” and continues onto the next with “Hooray!” It’s interactive, playful, and perfect for spring.
How to Mail It
You might be wondering, “How do I send this masterpiece?”
Great question! This card folds flat and fits inside a standard Stampin’ Up! Medium Envelope. It does have some thickness, so I recommend hand-canceling it at the post office and possibly adding extra postage. Totally worth it for the wow factor!
Featured Products: Storybook Moments Suite Collection
I designed this card using the enchanting Stampin’ Up! Storybook Moments Suite Collection. This suite is a dream for anyone who loves story-inspired papercrafting! It includes:
- Storybook Friends Stamps & Dies
- Storybook Moments Specialty Designer Paper
- Timeless Plaid Designer Paper
- Antique Pearls Embellishments
- Plus a coordinating Scrapbooking Workshop with stickers and the Storybook Life Stamp Set
I pulled elements from all of these to create this “mega” Easter card. The details, colors, and characters work together like a fairytale! You can explore more of my Storybook Moments projects here.
