Let Me Show You How .. to make Twist & Pop Fun Fold Card! Nov 25, 2024


Well hello there! Apparently if I don't have something written down on my "to-do" list it doesn't get done!  Note to self:  Add "do blog post" to your weekly to-do list!  I'm a week late but this post is definitely a case of "better late than never"!  In my Mystery Card Monday Nov 25, 2024 I showed you how to make a Twist & Pop Fun Fold Card.  If you ever need a "WOW!" project THIS is the one to use.  I've made several over the years ... my daughter's 16th birthday, a friend's 50th birthday and this week, for a grandpa who is turning 100 years old.  THAT deserves a WOW project for sure!

Check these out ... I started with easy designing, using the Reindeer Fun paper and bundle ...


I kept things easy/quick/simple by cutting deer from the designer paper.


THIS was the card I wanted to make for Grandpa.  



He is Scottish, a veteran and was a farmer so ....


I love how this one turned out.  I made it into a Gift Card Holder ...



This one uses a lot of retired product.  I tend to keep my more "masculine" products for those hard-to-design for fellas!


This one was for Becca .... (I haven't listed the products used for this one 'cause my brain hurts and I can't recall the papers used lol)



They are VERY impressive and look much harder to make than they are. Seriously!

Here is the "recipe" of the pieces you need to prep ...



... and here is the Mystery Card Monday (MCM) Facebook Live replay, showing you how to cut the papers and put all the pieces together. TRY IT! Watch the gluing of the mechanism a few times and then try it with some old card stock you don't love. Once you get it you get it!


That's it for this week.  If you would like to join me LIVE for my MCM (Mystery Card Monday) sessions, you can catch me on my FaceBook Page here at 7:00 pm Mountain Time every Monday ... or on my YouTube Channel here at the same time (I stream live to both).  Like and Follow my FB Page and/or Subscribe to my YouTube Channel.  I'd love to have you - the live community is AMAZING and so much fun!

If you live in Canada and would like to purchase any of the items I used for my cards, just click any of the pictures below and you will be taken to my online store.  Thank you!  I appreciate your support!

Stay amazing!
