Center pop-out Fun fold card with video & free project sheet

September 8, 2025

This fun fold card I’m sharing today is super fun to open and to make. It looks like a normal card from this photo:

But look how it opens! The center pops out for a nice surprise.

My colors include Cajun Craze, Early Espresso & Basic Beige. The designer paper is from the Gathering Together pack seen here.

This designer paper is part of our Online Exclusives. To see all of these new items click here. Or download & save the Download Online Exclusives flyer

I used the Branching Out stamp set for the greeting and the fabulous new Traditional Labels dies seen here.

In the photo below you can see the scored bridge strip that pops out the center. To understand how to assemble this card please watch the video below. It will make sense then!

Snowflake Wishes Fun Fold card; easy but beautiful!

October 21, 2020
Here's another pretty fun fold card with the Snowflake Wishes suite of products. Marilyn made this beauty.

Save

It's a side fold card which is super easy to do!

She used the Stitched Rectangle dies for her front layers, the Snowflake Splendor designer paper on the left and the Snowflake Wishes bundle for the stamps & die-cuts. Note the pretty Glimmer snowflake! Our Balmy Blue Glimmer paper is gorgeous!

She used Pacific Point ink on the greeting and the faint snowflakes in the background were done by stamping off a few times to get a lighter hue.

Measurements:
- Balmy Blue 4 1/4" X 8 1/4" scored at 5 1/2", stitched rectangle die-cut is 3" X 4 1/4"
- Whisper White inside 4" X 5 1/4", stitched rectangle die-cut is 2 5/8" X 4"
- Snowflake Splendor DSP 2 1/2" X 4"
