Here we are in September, with another challenge for the Mix It Up Challenge blog. This time, the challenge is to create a fun fold card. I made a variation on a z-fold card for my project.
I found a tutorial for this card on Splitcoast Stampers. It's called a "Building Block" card and the instructions are in the tutorials section of the Splitcoast site.
The card starts out like a z-fold card, but then you cut slits into part of the card, which creates pop up folds.
I used kraft cardstock for the base, and added patterned paper panels that I matted with brown cardstock. The images were stamped and colored to create a Fall card. I'll add a cream cardstock panel to the far right so I can stamp a greeting and sign the card before mailing. This creates a card that stands up well and can end up being a decorative piece, too.
We can't wait to see your fun fold cards for the challenge. Hope you have a chance to create and share a project this month at the Mix It Up Challenge blog!
