Control Freaks Blog Tour: Holiday Catalog Sneak Peek Fun Fold Cards

Whether you are coming from the creative and talented Cindy Elam's blog or just joining us -- welcome to the August 2019 Control Freaks Blog Tour! This month we are sharing fun folds and projects from the upcoming 2019 Holiday Catalog. Have you gotten your copy of the Holiday Catalog yet? The catalog officially launches on September 4, but if you join Stampin' Up! as a demonstrator during August, you can pick out new stuff in your Starter Kit right NOW -- and you'll get an extra $30 -- for a total of $155 in product for $99!

There are so many goodies in this catalog! In fact, this catalog is 10 pages bigger than the Occasions Catalog! Today I am highlighting two of my favorite punch bundles using a fun fold that I have been obsessed with lately. Check out these Peek-a-boo Flip Cards! Which one is your favorite?

These cards are so fun! Pull the tag and the first image flips up to reveal the sentiment underneath! Here are the cardstock measurements you need:
  • 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" Card Base
  • 3-1/2" x 4 1/4" Layer
    • Punch a slit in the middle with the Classic Label Punch
  • 2" x 5-3/4" Tag
    • Score at 3-1/2" and 4".
    • Punch the long end with the Delightful Tag Topper Punch.
  • 1-1/2" x 1-3/4" Inside Piece
Directions:
  • Feed the tag through the Classic Label slit so that the tag end is in the back.
  • Stamp and layer the focal point. Adhere it to the 1/2" second of the tag using Tear & Tape.
  • Stamp and adhere the inside piece on straight end of the tag.
  • Use a single piece of Tear & Tape on the back of that straight end to stick the tag to the front of the card, centering the focal point on the larger layer.
The Peekaboo Flip Card is much easier than it looks and sounds, so be sure to check out my video tutorial! You're going to love it! Here's my second card featuring the Merry Moose stamp set.
