Today, I share a fun fold easel card using the Pick of the Patch Bundle (buy the stamp set and the punch as a bundle and save 10 percent). Find this bundle on page 51 of the holiday mini catalog.

Circle Sayings Fourth of July
When you’re a card maker, you don’t need a reason to get into your craft room and make a card. But when there’s a holiday, any holiday, us creators get into gear. And we even send cards to celebrate the Fourth of July. I found it fun to try to make an Independence Day card with the supplies I have on hand.
For this patriotic card, I grabbed a variety of current Stampin’ Up! products, including:
Night of Navy Base: 7 1/2″ x 5 1/2″, scored at 3 1/2″
Night of Navy Cardstock (front): 3″ x 5 1/4″ and (inside) 5 1/4″ x 1/2″
Sweet Sorbet Designer Series Paper (6 x 6 Paper Pack): 2 3/4″ x 5″ (front) and 1″ x 5 1/4″ (inside)
Basic White Cardstock: 5 1/4″ x 4″

Do you ever fall in love with a stamp set and keep on using it and using it? That’s me! I preordered Stampin’ Up!’s Circle Sayings Bundle in April and have been playing with it ever since. I’ve paired it with different fun folds and different Designer Series Papers. Find the bundle on page 17 of Stampin’ Up!’ 2023-2024 Annual Catalog. Receive a 10 percent discount when you purchase the stamp set and 2 3/8″ circle punch together.
I love this stamp set because it contains all of the sentiments I use regularly. It pairs easily with different papers and designs.
