Today I will share step by step how to make this Fun Fold Easel Card. Each month I hand stamp a fun fold card and send it to the top ten in sales on my Diva & Dude Team. This was the July 2022 card.

I used the Trees for Sale Stamp Set and the Tree Lots Dies (free Sale-A-bration item). Unfortunately the dies were so popular that they ran out of them, SAD FACE! Mini Catalog and Sale-a-bration items are only while supplies last. If you ever see something in those publications you can’t live without order them ASAP! While you can’t get the little camper you will be able to make this fun fold card using other products.

I used this card sketch for my layout of this week’s Sunday Sketch. I replaced the bow on the right with the small tree. Instead of a portrait rectangle on the left-hand side I used two trees. So while the layout is a starting place you can easily replace elements.
