Stampin’ Up! Bloom Boutique Center Flap Fun Fold Cards
A Stunning Set of Three Cards You’ll Want to Make on Repeat!
Oh my goodness, friends — I am SO excited to share this latest set of cards with you! These three beauties are part of my Center Flap Fun Fold Series, and they are absolutely giving me all the spring and summer feels.
Using the gorgeous Stampin’ Up! Bloom Boutique Suite, I created three different center flap card designs — each one unique, show-stopping, and honestly way easier to make than they look! Whether you’re a seasoned card maker or just dipping your toes into paper crafting, this tutorial is going to inspire you to get to your craft table ASAP.
Meet the Cards — Three Designs, Endless Possibilities!
First up is the Center Pop-Up Card — this one is a total showstopper with its structured center panel that literally pops forward when you open it. I stamped “Happy Birthday” in gold embossing on the warm caramel tones of the DSP, and those lush pink and green floral die cuts from the Boutique Blossoms Bundle just take it over the top.
Next, the “Have a Good Day” Arrow Center Flap is dressed in the sweetest peach and floral print Designer Series Paper — perfect for sending a little sunshine to someone who needs it.
And then there’s the dreamy “Hugs” and “Thinking of You” Arrow Center Flap in soft cornflower blue — honestly, this one makes my heart sing.
The blue rose die cut nestled right in that triangle flap? Chef’s kiss. 💙 All three cards feature the stunning new 2026–2028 In Colors — and you are going to LOVE them.
The Products That Make These Cards Shine
Let me tell you — this Bloom Boutique Suite is everything.
The Boutique Blossoms Bundle and Scalloped Blooms Bundle give you the most incredible layered floral die cuts, and when you pair them with the 2026–2028 In Color Pearlized Specialty Paper, the texture and shimmer are just chef’s kiss. Click for more details >
Add in some Gold Foil Sheets, a little Versamark and Metallics Wow! Embossing Powder for that elegant gold embossing, and the adorable In Color Butterflies scattered across the DSP — and every single detail feels intentional and luxurious. These cards truly look like they came from a boutique!

Perfect for Any Occasion — Seriously, Any!
One of my favorite things about these center flap fun fold cards is how incredibly versatile they are. The Happy Birthday version is obviously a no-brainer for birthdays, but think beyond that!
The “Have a Good Day” card is perfect for tucking into a lunchbox, mailing to a friend who needs a pick-me-up, or leaving on a coworker’s desk. And the soft blue “Thinking of You” and “Hugs” cards are wonderful for sympathy, encouragement, or just letting someone know you care.
Furthermore, the center flap design creates that extra “wow” moment when the recipient opens it — making even a simple card feel like a real gift. These are the kinds of cards that people keep long after the occasion has passed!
