Hi Stampers!
If you have followed my blog or myYou Tube channel for any length of time you know I enjoy cute critter images. Today’s project is a Joy Fold Card created using the BADGER BESTIES stamp set. The badger images in this set are adorable and perfect for kid cards (or cards for anyone). Here is the card I made:
* Card base - Coastal Cabana cut at 8 1/4” x 4 1/4” scored and folded at 5 1/2”.
* Smaller card base - Basic White cut at 8 1/2” x 2 3/4”.
* DSP - 6” x 6” Brights - Bermuda Bay: two pieces, one cut at 5 1/4” x 4” and one cut at 4” x 2 1/2”.
* Basic White cardstock for Badger images - scraps
* Coastal Cabana cardstock - scrap, for die cutting.
* Ink - Memento Tuxedo Black, Bermuda Bay; Stampin’ Blends - Basic Black (light).
* Playful Alphabet Dies.
* Scissors to fussy cut the badger images.
* Silicone Craft Sheet for Reverse Stamping
* Adhesive and dimensionals.
* The “Happy Birthday” sentiment is from the stamp set, PARTY PUFFINS.
ASSEMBLY
* Cut and fold both card bases.
* Adhere the DSP to the main card base.
* Stamp the badger images (top left and bottom right images on stamp set cover), the with Memento Tuxedo Black on Basic White cardstock.
* Use the Memento Tuxedo Black ink and stamp the badger image (bottom right on stamp set cover) on the silicone craft sheet. Place a scrap of Basic White over the stamped image and rub gently to transfer the image to the cardstock. (Reverse Stamping Technique)
* Fussy cut the three badger images.
* Die cut the # and the 1 with the Playful Alphabet dies.
* Position the Basic White card so that the fold is to the right. Stamp Happy Birthday with Bermuda Bay in the upper right quadrant of the card front. Use dimensionals to attach the badger the left side of the card base. Use liquid glue to adhere the # and the 1 under the Happy Birthday.
* Inside the small card on the left side stamp another greeting. On the right side adhere the remaining two badgers.
* Put adhesive on the back side of the small card center and adhere it to the 5 1/2 x 4 1/4” side of the card.
* Close the front of the small card over the short side of the card base. The card is finished!
JOY FOLD CARDS
Joy Fold Cards are easy to make and a fun twist on the classic greeting card. The size of the smaller card can be adjusted to fit different sized images or sentiments. You can orient the card differently as well, for even more creative options. Below is a portrait version of a Joy Fold Card.

Aren’t the BADGER BESTIES images cute? My card was created for my soon to be 1 year old great-nephew, but I think adults would enjoy receiving a cute badger card too! I hope you give the Joy Fold Card a try, whether with the BADGER BESTIES stamp set or any other stamp set.
That’s all for today! Thank you for stopping by. Until next time…
Stamp Happy!
