Well, I don’t usually highlight retired products and i pulled the Winter Meadow DSP out and started designing this card and totally forgot it is retired. OOPS! but the card is so pretty I had to show you the finished result!

It is still a good teaching moment – I will teach you how to make an easel 3D fun fold card and you can try it with your stash of DSP – retired or current!

Measurements:
BASE: Basic Grey CS: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
scored at 1 1/4″ and 3″
Secret Sea CS: 4″ x 5 1/4″, 3/4″x 5 1/4″
Basic White CS: 4″ x 5 1/4″, scrap for the die
DSP: 3 3/4″ x 5″, 1/2″ x 5″

Adhere the 1/2″ x 5″ DSP piece to the Secret Sea matte 3/4″ x 5 1/4″, then adhere Foam Adhesive strips to the back.
Adhere the large DSP layer to the 4″ x 5 1/4″ Secret Sea matte.
Score the card base at 1 1/4″ and 3″ on the long side.

Adhere the 4″ x 5 1/4″ Basic White layer to the inside of the card and then pop up the small DSP matte to the bottom of the Basic White layer.

Place adhesive on the outside edge of the small panel.
Die cut the small sentiment piece from the Snowflake Kisses bundle and stamp “let it snow” in Secret Sea ink. Pop it up on the DSP.

Adhere the large DSP matte to the front panel.

Adhere three Secret Sea 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls to the outside of the easel around the sentiment.
The front panel tucks into the raised smaller DSP piece to stand up for an easel effect hence the fun fold name!
This is a side view of the card!
Have a pretty piece of DSP or artwork that you would like to display then try this easel card fun fold and do just that!

Now go and create some artwork of your very own that you would like to display – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’
