Turtle & Friends Fun Fold swaps


Today I have a few special fun fold cards made with the Turtle & Friends bundle seen here.  They were for a Flowerbug's Team swap we held last month with an 'Animal Fun Fold' theme. 

The first card was made by Paula. Her cute card is called a Double Dutch Door fold. 

I love the rounded corners on her front layer and the sweet background made with images from the Happy Hedgehogs stamp set.  She sponged the sky & grass too.  

Measurements:

  • Evening Evergreen card base 4 1/4" X 8 1/2" tall scored at 5 1/2", and the lower doors piece is 8 1/2" X 3" wide scored at 2 1/8" & 6 3/8" 
  • White upper stamped layer is 4" X 2 3/4"
  • Lower DSP (Pattern Party host) layer is 1 3/4" X 2 3/4
  • Granny Apple Green inside is 4" X 5 1/4" 

To put this card together you add the scored horizontal piece to the vertical card base and add the inside layer over it. 

Next is a fun fancy fold card made by Marla.  I'd forgotten about this unique card fold!  It looks like a normal card at first glance. 

But when you lift the front it reveals this!

She used the Expressions in Ink specialty DSP in the annual catalog for her card front.  She also used the Hammered Metal 3D embossing folder for the Garden Green strip. 

Measurements:

  • Garden Green 2 pieces at 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" plus a 1 1/2" X 4" piece for the embossed strip
  • Whisper White inside is 3 3/4" X 11" scored at 1" & 6" 
  • Expressions in Ink DSP 4" X 5 1/4" 

It's so fun to see what my Flowerbug's Team members create; we each have our own style and I love that!

    I shared this super cute fun fold card on last week's Live video. It has lots of layers but it's so easy to make!  

    Besides the bright, happy holiday colors in the Take a Bow DSP I love that this fun fold uses your cardstock efficiently. Each diagonally cut card base is one half of an 8 1/2" X 11" sheet of CS. I forgot to take a photo of this aspect but I do share it in the video seen here. 

    Below is a photo that shows how it opens and the pocket available for the optional gift card.

    My colors include Real Red & Garden Green with White. The diagonal layers are also easy to do.  Start with a rectangle and cut it in half on the diagonal making sure you cut it to match the diagonal. 

    My greeting & White die-cut is from the Christmas Labels bundle which is on the Last Chance list right now. See it here. 

    The Red die-cut is from Greetings of the Season dies and the pine bough die-cuts are from the Winterly Tree Tops and made from the Festive Glimmer paper. 

    I added a double bow made from Red &  White Baker's Twine and Peppermint dots that are currently unavailable but will return at the end of December.  *They are NOT on the Last Chance list so they should be available for awhile!

    I created a free project sheet you can print or download for this fun fold card. Click on the following link to get it.  Download Take a Bow November 2024

    Below is the video I made for this card and another super quick fun fold card. Both of these make great use of your designer paper!  I hope you watch and make some.
