To celebrate the release of the Fun Folds Tutorial Bundle, the Creativity Abounds Design Team are also sharing bonus projects in today’s blog hop—so keep hopping for even more fun fold inspiration!

Let’s talk about my project…

The fun fold project I contributed to the tutorial bundle is angular, striking, and features a wow-factor pop-out that is sure to delight.

There are a couple of things that are helpful to know about this fabulous fun fold:

  1. It may look complex with its many-angled sides, but the cutting and scoring are actually quite simple.  These are the best fun folds!
  2. When you decorate this design, you embellish both sides—the back panel is where you’ll write your heartfelt message.
  3. Despite its dimensional look, the card folds flat for posting by laying flat and simply tucking in the two sides, just like a gatefold card.

For this blog hop project, I finished my fun fold card with the Painterly Pears Suite, pulling colour inspiration from the Painterly Pears Designer Series Paper that dresses the side panels.  The centre panel showcases that beautiful stamped pear, accented with clusters of die-cut flowers.

In the Fun Folds Tutorial Bundle, you’ll find my project using the same fold but with a completely different look—this time featuring the fabulous and popular Kintsugi Inspirations Suite.  I can’t wait for you to try it!
