The theme for the NC Demo’s October Blog Hop is “Know When to Fold ‘Em”! That means the projects you will see along the hop will have some kind of fancy fold. It could be a card, box, bag, or tag…as long as it’s folded!!
I’ve been creating with the Tea Boutique bundle and suite this past week and decided to make a Fun Fold card with it too! I enjoyed making this fun fold and hope you enjoy it too! I’m looking forward to seeing what the other NC Demos come up with for this theme. Come hop along for some Fancy Fold inspiration!
This fun fold starts with a regular size card base and I love that! No need for a lot of extra paper or a waste of any paper either! Win-win!! The card recipe below gives you all the dimensions and instructions on how to make this card yourself! If you don’t have this bundle, you can use what you have at home and create something similar. If you absolutely love this bundle like I do, there are links below to purchase the products I used.

This always such a fun card to make and I love the tea set. I played with it when the new catalog came out. But sadly, it’s been sitting on my shelf. No really need to bring it out again!
I have enjoyed playing with this set all week!! It really is a great one!
