Beary Cute Fun Fold Card / Stamping With Melva

Beary Cute Fun Fold Card

Sunday 10 September 2023

I shared this card in the International Crafters Video Hop yesterday and thought I'd share it today on my blog. I had such fun making this adorable card featuring the Beary Cute Bundle from the Annual Catalogue. In the video I changed it up a bit and used the A Walk in the Forest Designer Series Paper to cut/punch the images out. Love being able to mix and match products!

Isn't this fun? It's a bit like a Z fold card except it is just one piece of cardstock.

Isn't it fun!
