Welcome to the August, 2024 SU! Demos Fun Fold Blog Hop! Each month, a group of demos share fun fold cards for a blog hop. I always learn something new and thoroughly enjoy seeing the creations of the other demos. We hope that you will use the line-up below to hop along with us.
Here’s my Thoughtful Journey Joy Fold card:
As always with this Hop, I will be entering my card to the Creative Creases Challenge gallery. If you enjoy fun folds as much as we do, you really need to join this bi-weekly challenge, which was founded and organized by the leader of this Hop, Debbie Mageed with Secret Stamper.
Last year I found this card fold around Thanksgiving and wound up making so many Christmas cards using this video from Rachel Tessman. Once you make a couple of them, it’s just so easy to keep right on going.. Just this past week I made three using the Thoughtful Journey 6 x 6 inch DSP and they are beautiful, even if I do say so myself. The DSP does all the work. It’s a gorgeous layout and makes a big impact. Here’s her video:
Rachel’s blog post for this card also has a printable tutorial. I can pretty much guarantee you can follow along with her video and just start creating stunning cards with cardstock and some 6 x 6 inch DSP! You can see some of the cards I made here and here.
For the inside of my card, I used blending brushes and Petunia Pop, Wild Wheat, and Calypso Coral ink to lightly surround the sentiment with color. I just didn’t want plain white cardstock on the inside, so I used the DSP as inspiration. I hope I’ve done it justice.
