Sentimental Christmas Fun Fold Card I think the Sentimental Christmas Designer Series Paper is just so soft, beautiful and a little bit retro. I also love that for every pack of this paper you buy, Stampin' Up will donate $3 to children's literacy in the US, which makes it twice as nice. So please buy this DSP! It makes such lovely cards--I used 3 different DSPs on this one card. And I am not sure you can tell by looking at the picture above, but it is a fun fold too! If you get stuck, or are just a more visual learner, please watch my Facebook Live below where I made this card. Then come back every Monday at 1 pm PST to make another card with me. Let's make this card! Gather your supplies: 1. Lost Lagoon cardstock --Card base 5 1/2" by 7 1/4" scored on the long side at 4 1/4".  2.
