Howdy and happy Monday everyone! I hope you enjoyed the weekend and maybe a festivity or two for Father’s Day. Today, I’m bringing you another fun card design using the Zany Zoo Suite and a diagonal fun fold shared over at Klompen Stampers.

What I love about this particular fun fold design is that it is so easy and it makes TWO cards at one time. How about that for efficiency?! For this first design, I used the sing-along sheet of designer paper from the Zoo Crew pack to create a cute birthday card.

The base is Pool Party and the diagonal design is cut by marking the cardstock at 3” down/up on the short edge of both sides of the paper and then cutting a straight line between the two marks. Score one half at 3” and 6.75” and then fold to create the panels. The outward-facing panels are 2.75” wide, 3.25” wide, and 4” wide.

For this first design, I chose DSP for the front panel and diecut and popped up the singing turtle for effect. I chose a complimentary DSP from the Zoo Crew pack for the outward-facing center panel. I prefer to have the center inside panel be blank for a personal message and selected white for the message panel. I built a concert scene for the inside back panel using Pool Party, DSP, and black cardstock. I fussy cut the frog from the sing-along sheet and used lots of dimensionals for a more realistic look.

Using the second card base, I created this fun little Hello notecard. I used the dies to cut the crocheting llama from the arts & crafts sheet from the Zoo Crew paper pack. I punched a circle from Melon Mambo cardstock to use as the base under the llama. To complete the scene, I diecut the table, vase, and flowers using the Zany Zoo dies. I used a portion of a sentiment from the Pansy Patch stamp set and cut a banner strip from white paper. This entire scene is popped up on dimensionals for added drama and realism. The outward-facing center panel is a scrap of sing along sheet and finished with Petal Pink duo ribbon. I kept the very back panel very simple with black cardstock, a strip of champagne dazzle specialty paper, and a simple HELLO diecut using the Alphabet a la Mode set and cut from Melon Mambo cardstock. The flowers are diecut from Melon Mambo and Granny Apple Green and the centers are finished with festive pearls and sit atop dimensionals.
