A fun fold autumn card to say thank you!
Sharing this fun fold autumn card with you today – thank you for stopping by! If you’re a Canadian visitor, I hope that you had a good Thanksgiving. If you’re an international follower, I hope you had a good weekend!
This is a card that we made in our Online Card Club a little while ago. I like fun folds that don’t require a lot of special tools, and that ultimately fit in a regular, medium Stampin’ Up! envelope. Though I will make some that don’t meet these requirements, they tend to be the exception rather than the rule.
This fun fold autumn card features the Inked Botanicals Designer Series Paper. The backing cardstock is Cajun Craze, and it’s accented with some Calypso Coral. The neutral cardstock is Very Vanilla for a change – I tend to automatically reach for Basic White. It helps that the Designer Series Paper has a vanilla base! The sentiment is from the Timeless Arrangements stamp set, but I decided to use it with the Double Oval Punch rather than the coordinating Timeless Arrangements dies. For club, I tend to use less specific die cuts and punch outs so that club members can use whatever stamps they have on hand when they are constructing their cards.

It definitely felt like fall weather the past few days….a bit of a shock to my system, especially since I spent most of last week in Florida! I was there for business purposes…really…but I couldn’t go to Orlando and NOT visit a theme park!
A couple of friends and I spent some time at the Epcot Food & Wine Festival….but I think the highlight was the fact that we got to ride the new Guardians of the Galaxy Ride! We were in the Virtual Queue group 8, which meant that we basically walked right onto the ride first thing in the morning! (Honestly, that was one of the most thrilling parts of the ride LOL). However….that also meant that we didn’t make it to the fireworks in the evening as we were DONE before that. I hadn’t been to Disney in a few years, so it was great to be back in at least one of the parks. Must plan to visit again!! Do you have a favourite Disney Park? I do hope to make it to Disney Sea (the Japanese Disney Park) in the next few years.
In the meantime, I’ll get back to work so that I can plan my next trip!!
