Welcome to the DO Stamper Stars Blog Hop. The DO Stamper Stars is comprised of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators who are part of Dawn Olchefske's leader team. Each month we participate in 2 Blog Hops, like this one, to inspire all of us in our passion for crafting. Our Goal is to create, share, and inspire every crafter to keep our creative energy flowing.
There are so many colors that coordinate with this paper: Bumblebee, Calypso Coral, Flirty Flamingo, Just Jade, Night of Navy. I chose Night of Navy, Flirty Flamingo and Bumblebee. I do not own the In Symmetry coordinating stamp set yet, but I found a flower from the Lovely You Stamp set that went really well with the paper. I'm also trying to show the shimmer of Wink of Stella I added to the flowers in the below close up.
I found the idea for this card from another Demonstrator, Patty Bennet. It is a Tri-Fold Pocket card that can also be used as a gift card holder. I just loved the look of it and that it used a full 5 1/4" x 12" sheet of designer series paper! She has an instructional vide here Easy Tri-Fold Card with Pocket weekly crafting video
As you can see from this photo, it looks like a 'regular card' but their is just one layer of card stock on the bottom. When you open the top designer layer you've got the pocket card inside!
To make it a Gift Card holder, just remove the note card and slide in your gift card. I created a label for the sentiment on the front of the pocket instead.

- Note: The little sprigs of grass on front of card is from the Counting Sheep Salea-bration set available with $50 order August 3 - September 30.
