Welcome to the August Creativity Abounds Blog Hop! We are a group of demonstrators from around the world that love to create and hope to inspire you to create as well. This month we are featuring FUN FOLDS! We have 12 excellent folds for you to see.

This is such a WOW fold. Your recipient is sure to exclaim as they open it! It stands so beautifully for display, too. Isn’t this paper beautiful? It is the To Market paper paired with Blackberry Bliss and Garden Green. That perfectly scripted “Happy Birthday” is from the Adventurous Sky stamp set.

Here’s a tip for you if you have paper but did not purchase the coordinating stamps/dies. Fussy cut an image from another pattern of the paper to put on your card. This lovely bouquet was fussy cut from another sheet of To Market paper. It’s a snap to coordinate perfectly when you use this trick.

Would you like to learn how to make this card? I have complete instructions (imperial and metric) and photos in our Creativity Abounds Fun Folds Tutorial. You can earn this tutorial for free by placing a qualifying order (min of $35 before tax and shipping) in my online store or by emailing me to let me know that you’d like to purchase it for $15.

Here’s a photo of the card included in the tutorial.
