Today’s Fun Fold Friday I have what is called the Diagonal Fold Easel Card and when it opens up it twists and the top panel stands up, supported by the base panel. There are pictures below however, it is much easier to show you on video. The video shows you how to make the mechanism for the card and how I decorated it with our new Rainbow of Happiness Bundle and FREE Rainbow and Sunshine DSP (Designer Series Paper).

Rainbow of Happiness Bundle

Let your loved ones know they make you happy with the Rainbow of Happiness Stamp Set. The set includes cascading bows for each stripe of the rainbow and a fun greeting to add to the rainbow. It also includes more greetings to mix and match with the rainbows and texture pieces to add a little extra dimension like rain and hearts. This set is adorable stamped in our Brights Collection or go for something softer with our Subtles Collection.

The Rainbow of Happiness Bundle includes the Rainbow of Happiness Stamp Set and the Brilliant Rainbow Dies. Mix and match stamped images with die-cut bows to create unique rainbows in your favorite colors. The bow-shaped greetings in the stamp set can be stamped on die-cut pieces for a unique look. The A Little Something To Brighten Your Day greeting is sized perfectly to fit on the tag piece in the die set. Add clouds and scallops to your handmade cards for extra texture and dimension.
