Technique Tuesday - Fun Folds Blog Hop August 2022

The Crafty Collaborations Team is comprised of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world. Each month we participate in several collaborative projects, including Blog Hops, like this one to inspire all of us in our passion for crafting. Our Goal is to create, share, and inspire every crafter to keep our creative energy flowing.

It's the Monthly Technique Tuesday hop. Today's topic is Fun Folds, or Fancy folds as some demonstrators call them. I recently used up a bunch of designer series paper mixing and matching 3 designs to make Joy Fold cards. I understand the name for this fun fold was inspired by Joy who designed it. It is one of my favorite fun fold designs. 

I used the Design A Daydream 12 x 12 designer series paper, part of the exclusive host products when your order/workshop is $150 or greater. You get 48 sheets for just $18!

The 2nd layer inserts itself between the base card to create an accordion like opening to the card. You can also add more designer paper inside to decorate if you want. I needed a bunch of sympathy cards so I just mixed and matched the paper layers differently in each of the cards.
