Stunning Lovely Garden Fun Fold Card – Easy Tutorial – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

Looking for a card design that’s sure to impress but simple to create? You’re going to love this Stunning, Lovely Garden Fun Fold Card! It’s the perfect way to showcase the Lovely Garden Designer Series Paper from Stampin’ Up!—and with a fun diagonal layout, it opens with a wow factor every time.

Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, sending encouragement, or just sharing a little handmade happiness, this card delivers on style and sentiment.

Featuring the Lovely Garden DSP

The star of the show is definitely the Lovely Garden paper. Its soft floral patterns and rich botanical palette create a beautiful backdrop for this fun fold. I paired it with Blueberry Bushell and Fresh Freesia cardstock to create contrast and pop, making each layer stand out.

A Simple Yet Eye-Catching Fold

The diagonal design adds a dynamic look, but don’t worry—it’s surprisingly simple to assemble. The inner squares create a cascade of uplifting sentiments as the card opens, making it interactive and heartfelt.

This layout highlights bold sentiments, patterned papers, and layered textures. It’s one of those designs you’ll want to revisit again and again.

Sentiments That Say It All

All of the sentiments on this card come from the Saying Something Ephemera Pack. I love how playful and varied the styles are—perfect for mixing and matching across different projects.

Here I used:

• “Today is about you”

• “Happy Day”

Each adds a joyful and celebratory vibe that pairs beautifully with the floral patterns.
