Stampin’ Up! Wonderful Scenic Adventure A2 Size Fan Fold Congratulations Card with Video

Posted on June 1, 2025 by stampsnlingers

Good morning, y’all – and Happy Sunday AND first day of June! Hard to believe how fast this year is going!

Now – today’s post is going to look a lot (like a LOT A LOT) like my post from Friday – when I showed you how to make an A2 Sized Fan Fold Card. Why would you do that, Mary!? Most excellent question. The answer to which is…because I borked uploading the VIDEO on how to make this kind of card and I really REALLY wanted y’all to HAVE a video. And…here ’tis!

So – I made that one again – but…I changed it to a more masculine card – using the Timeless Plaid 6″ x 6″ DSP (one of my all-time favorite packs of paper!) and the Scenic Adventure bundle. A die cut sentiment from the Wonderful Thoughts stamp set and dies to finish it off. Take a look-see:
