Trucking Along for the New Year!

stampin' up! trucking along bundle blue double z fold card with white circles with new day sentiment

Stampin’ Up!’s Trucking Along bundle is one of the biggest hits of 2023! The adorable stamp set and coordinating punch are right on-trend with a homey/country feel. The variety of sentiments as well as images with which the truck can be “loaded” are great for so many uses.

The card shown above is a Double Z Fun Fold card. Sounds tricky, but it definitely isn’t once you have all the right pieces and dimensions! See below for a tutorial on how to make it.

We make fun folds often in my classes, both virtual and in person. For info about my upcoming in-person and virtual classes, check out my class descriptions here and my calendar here. I hope to see you at a class sometime soon, but you can always find ideas here on my blog as well as on Facebook and Instagram.
