Hello! Today I’m featuring the new Nesting Dolls stamp set from Maker Forte. I made 2 cards to share, the first one is an A2 card and the second card is a fun fold card that opens in an accordian style.

Here’s my first card:

Just look at that floral detail on those nesting dolls! For the background I simply clear heat embossed Vintage Damask over the blue cardstock.

For the fun fold card, I first used a button embossing folder and spread on some foundry wax with my finger. Then I heat set that and cut down the panels to fit perfectly on each section. I also used a belly band that says “With Love” to keep this card together for gifting.

I love how this turned out! I put the largest nesting doll on the front, with a medium sized one in the center, and the smallest one in the back.

If you want to recreate this card fold, start with 1/2 of a sheet of cardstock long-wise (4 1/4″ x 11″).

Then, score the long panel at: 1.5″, 3″, 5.5″, and 8″

Here are the measurements for the 3 red panels:
Panel 1: 1 1/4″ x 4″
Panel 2: 2 1/4″ x 4″
Panel 3: 2 3/4″ x 4″

I’m often asked what supplies I use to make my cards and projects, so I’ve put together a list using affiliate links when possible. If you make a purchase with these links I may receive a small commission. These help me to keep up with blog costs and continue bringing you fun projects. Thank you so much for your support!

I hope you enjoyed these projects! Thanks for stopping by!
