As I shared on my weekly live crafting video yesterday (replay below) I was really stumped on how to use this shape from the Nested Essentials dies, until I got a card from my friend Cathy (see my version here).  I have now adapted the design from a side fold flap to a top fold flap on these fun fold cards!

I also checked through my stamp sets to find the perfect vertical greetings to fit these dies.  I used stamps from 3 stamp sets: Courage & Faith, So Sincere and Throughout the year (see them at the bottom of this post, click any product photo to shop in my online store).

ALTERNATE:

If you like this idea but don’t want to do the extra steps of the top fold flap, simply create the cards in the same way, but just add the layered Nested Essentials dies to the card front!
