An Arrow Fun Fold Birthday Card with Berry Botanicals Vellum

Today I'm sharing a fun fold card that puts a gorgeous specialty paper front and center! This Arrow Fun Fold design creates such a dynamic shape, and it was the perfect way to showcase the Berry Botanicals Vellum Specialty Designer Series Paper.

I started with a Golden Glow cardstock card base, which gives such a warm, sunny frame to the design. For the fun fold mechanism, I layered the angled triangular Soft Sea Foam panels underneath, then added the panels cut from the Berry Botanicals Vellum DSP. The translucent quality of the vellum lets the rich blues, reds, and golds of the floral pattern really glow, especially with the Soft Sea Foam peeking through underneath.

For the focal sentiment, I die cut a detailed circle from Soft Sea Foam cardstock using the Spotlight on Nature dies and stamped "Happy Birthday" in Secret Sea ink from the Loveliest Tree stamp set. To tie everything together, I fussy cut a couple of the purple floral blooms directly from the Berry Botanicals Vellum paper and tucked them on top of the sentiment label, giving it a layered, dimensional feel. A few of the 2026-2028 In-Color Dots in Crisp Cantaloupe were scattered across the panels for little pops of color and shine.

Opening up the card, I kept the inside simple and elegant. I stamped the moths from the Fern & Flora stamp set in the upper corners, and added the sentiment "To a marvelous person on their birthday!" from the Sending Salutations stamp set, stamped on Basic White cardstock in Secret Sea ink to coordinate with the front.

I love how the angular fun fold design adds so much visual interest while still letting that beautiful specialty paper be the star of the show. This card would be perfect for any birthday, especially for someone who loves a garden-fresh floral look!

Thanks so much for stopping by today.
