Two Ways to Use the Same Fun Fold

I am so excited to bring you 2 fun fold cards using the same basic recipe that you can use over and over. And my samples will be sent to Hazel and River. It’s trifecta of wins!

These cards have a little bit of everything – stamping, coloring, embossing, embellishments, designer series paper, masculine, feminine, mini catalog, annual catalog, and Sale-A-Bration! At the heart of it, they have one major component in common. The use the same fun fold.

River’s Card

This is a CASE of a card from Terri Gaines. She made a super cute bumblebee from the ladybug punch and used the hive embossing folder as well. Hives look like bolts; that’s what grabbed my eye.
