Today’s More Color Mondays Color Challenge is a sweet little fun fold featuring a sneak peek at a new Suite, new stamp set and hybrid embossing folder, new 6″ x 6″ DSP coming in January in the new 2025 January to April mini catalog!
This fun fold is called the center of attention and you know I LOVE butterflies… not exactly sure why I am so drawn to them but I love every butterfly set that Stampin’ Up! creates and this one is no exception!

Measurements:
BASE: Fresh Freesia CS: 5 1/2″ x 8″
Calypso Coral layers: (2) 1 7/8″ x 5 3/8″
(1) 2 1/2″ x 3″
Highland Heather CS layers: (2) 1 3/4″ x 5 1/4″
Basic White CS: 1 3/8″ x 2 7/8″
scrap for Butterfly stamp and die cut
Beautiful Bokeh DSP: (4) 1 1/8″ x 1 7/8″

Place the two pieces of Highland Heather cardstock layers next to each other in the Beautiful Butterflies hybrid embossing folder and emboss.

Adhere to the Calypso Coral mattes.

Score the 5 1/2″ x 8″ BASE on the long side at 2″ and 6″ making score lines 2″ from each end.

Then rotate paper to the short side and cut at 1 1/4″ between the score lines starting at 2″ and cutting to 6″ score line. Rotate the paper and cut from the other side at 1 1/4″ from the 2″ score line to the 6″ score line.

Rotate the paper to the long side and score the paper at 4″ above and below the cut lines.

Still on the long side score the paper at 3″ and 5″ in between the cut lines.

Stamp in Highland Heather ink the sentiment in the middle of the Basic White layer.

Stamp the butterflies above and below the sentiment and watercolor the wings with Highland Heather ink and a Water Painter.

I stamped the splatter image in Highland Heather ink all over the background and adhered the Basic White layer to the Calypso Coral layer.
I decided I wanted a little lift and dimension so I colored and die cut the small butterfly and popped it up on Stampin’ Dimensionals over the butterfly above the sentiment.

I added a little ribbon in between the layers to finish off the “center of attention” focal point!

Fold the score lines at the 2″ and 6″ marks inward into a valley fold and fold the four inside folds into mountain folds and then adhere the embossed layers to the outside panels.

Adhere the small DSP pieces to the four panels above and below the cut lines in the center of the card and then adhere the focal piece onto the center piece (I matched up the right hand side of the focal piece to the right hand side of the card base center fold at the 5″ score line – you can place it in the center of you wish – it will hang over)

I added 5 Basic Rhinestone Jewels to the card front to finish off the card !

This is what the card looks like standing freely on its own!

This is how I folded the card to fit into a basic White envelope!

This looks like a complicated fold but it really pretty simple just a couple of cut lines and a few score marks! try this fun fold and make one of your stamps the “center of attention” and let me know how it turned out!

Now go and create some artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time!
