I’ve missed hopping with my favourite ladies and am delighted to return especially when this month’s theme is Fancy Folds.
I do love a Fancy Fold, it can take a Plain Jane card to wow-dom!! Not that I think my card today is Plain Jane but it’s so easy to create and packs a punch too. I’ve used the fabulous Nothing’s Better Than bundle which you can find in the Annual Catalogue and teamed it one of our best DSP’s In Good Taste.
You would be forgiven for wondering where the Fancy Fold as, so far, it looks like a normal card fitting in a normal envelope and then….
It pops up like so! I love it as it is such a simple card to make – no strange dimensions, just score the front piece straight down the middle and place your die-cuts in such a way that the card stays open.
It works so well with this bundle – and let’s face it, a day without coffee is fairly unthinkable for me lol! I think with all this typing (and considering I’m only about half an hour before the hop goes live!!), it’s about time I poured myself another.
Do enjoy hopping around the rest of the team – we have some amazing fancy folds to show you.
