This week is all about FREE paper. You heard that right! We’ve been making projects with free paper. Did you know that you can earn FREE product from Stampin’ Up! when you spend at least $50 USD this month? It’s called Sale-a-Bration and there’s a whole catalog full of items for you to choose from right now and thru the end of February!

Today’s card showcases the Sale-a-Bration designer series paper called Softly Stippled. This 12×12 pack, with its soft color palette and floral patterns, includes a total of 12 different designs on the two-sided sheets.
I designed this card for a team Mystery Packet challenge. The fun part of the team mystery packet challenge was figuring out how to use all of the components in the packet. I chose to make this Double Flap fun fold to showcase the beautiful coordinating floral patterns of the 2 sheets of Softly Stippled designer paper I received in my mystery packet, along with several other included elements.

The standard-sized base is made from a sheet of Lost Lagoon cardstock, which mats a slightly smaller sheet of the Softly Stippled designer paper. The smaller fold-over flap is a Basic White notecard. The outer-facing portion has been covered with a strip of the Pool Party floral DSP and serves as the base for the sentiment. The sentiment from Wonderful Thoughts is stamped on a tag (provided in my mystery packet) diecut using the Tailor Made Tags set. A strip of Pretty Peacock & Gold metallic ribbon and a few foiled gems finish off the front nicely.
To dress the inside of the small fold-over panel, I used the leftover portion of the Pool Party floral pattern in the center of the notecard. A piece of the Pretty Peacock ribbon serves as the mat for a small strip of the other coordinating floral pattern. The inside sentiment panel is stamped with a combination of stamps from Wonderful Thoughts and Gone Fishing and finished with some Pretty Peacock sequins.
I love the opportunity to get creative with products, like participating in this mystery packet challenge. Do you ever participate in challenges or events like this?
