Cottage Lane Stamper: "Under My Umbrella" Diagonal Accordion Fun Fold

"Under My Umbrella" Diagonal Accordion Fun Fold

Today I wanted to try a new fun fold that I saw on our CEO's Facebook page, Sara Douglass. Sara's daughter Shelby put this together on their family crafting day. I thought I'd try it with our "Under My Umbrella" stamp set and coordinating punch "Umbrella Builder". It would make a cute gift as it is or with some photos.

I'm not sure what the fold is called so I'm calling it a Diagonal Accordion. If you know what the correct name is for it, let me know.

The sentiments from this set are so appropriate for our times right now during the Covid19 self isolation period.

It opens up diagonally with four panels for photos or in my case I used 4 sheets of "Best Dressed" DSP from our 2020 January - June Mini Catalog. I love this DSP! It's hard not to hoard it!

You could also use it as a journal writing your thoughts in the opposite squares. It should fit in an A2 envelope but extra postage will be needed because it's almost 1/2" thick.

I paired it with a couple stamps from the March 2020 Paper Pumpkin kit, they go so well together! I also used the largest oval die from the Stitched Shapes die set.

Here's the video:

I will be giving this away to one lucky person who leaves a comment. There will be a drawing on May 7.
