Welcome to InKing Royalty’s October Blog Hop! During this year’s blog hops, we are having fun with our stamping favorites – our favorite themes for seasonal cards and projects. This month’s projects center around Harvest & Hope, so prepare yourself for gratitude and love in Fall-themed projects. We are excited to share our creations with you today! After you read my post, I hope you’ll hop over to the next person on the list at the base of this post.

I first saw this Fun Fold on Peggy Noe’s blog PrettyPaperCards.com. I’m always on the lookout for a fun fold to try. This card uses almost one full sheet of cardstock to make the full length. The options for decorating are many, but I chose to go pretty simple for this first time and use the Dear Friend sentiment to fit with the Hope theme.

This card was made using the coming soon Eden’s Garden Collection of products, available for customer purchase in November and December.

Steps to create Dear Friend Hope Card

1. Cut one piece of cardstock at 11 x 4-1/4 and score it at 2-1/2 and 6-3/4. Cut another piece of cardstock at 4-1/4 x 8-1/4 and score at 4-1/4.
2. Take the longer piece and place the 2-1/2 score line on your left. Overlap the second piece of cardstock over the last section on the right and adhere with score tape. This will give you the full length with one section 2-1/2″ and three sections of 4-1/4
3. Cut two pieces of DSP 4 x 4 and one piece 2-1/4 x 4, and one piece of basic white 4 x 4. Ink and stamp off once the image from Eden’s Garden in the bottom corner of the white using Soft Succulent. Use tape runner to place all the dsp and white pieces on your card base.
4. Close up your card and wrap a piece of Evening Evergreen Ribbon around long enough to tie in a bow on the right side. Adhere ribbon along the back and the 2-1/2″ portion of your card base.

Card Front Embellishment

1. Stamp the circle from Watercolor Shapes using Soft Succulent ink stamped off twice. Die cut using the Layering Circle die
2. Die cut the side portion of the largest die from Eden’s Garden in white and trim to make an arch. Add to circle with tape or liquid glue. Die cut the single leaf in white too. Die cut the banner using Soft Succulent card stock and add to circle with dimensional.
3. Mask off the bottom portion of the sentiment so only Dear Friend is showing. Ink with Soft Succulent and stamp off once then stamp on a 1/2 x 2-1/2 piece of white cardstock. Use tape runner or liquid glue to adhere to the banner.
4. Finish it off with some pretty pearls.
