Friday night I had a Fun Folds class via Zoom. I loved creating these projects. I am a pretty traditional card maker so I don't always try new and different folds which meant creating this class pushed me out of my usual routine.
I would never have thought I'd be teaching online classes before the pandemic hit but I have to say there really are some great benefits. I have friends from all over who can now take classes with me!
I refered to this first card as an accordian fold. I don't know if it has another name? I figure it's perfect for sending to someone who you want to celebrate but you might not want to write a long message to on the inside. ?

This is a Triangle Gate Fold. It looked intimidating until I realized it was two squares that you glue on either side! I've seen ribbon used to close this design as well but I decided to make a belly band instead.
I called this one a Book Binding card. By adding a score line and sealing it shut between the score lines you can crate a unique opening on the left edge.
The final card was a pocket card. I love the look of the insert peeking out.
How many of these have you tried before? When it comes to creating these, and other fun fold cards, the one tool you need most is a good scorer! I love that the Stampin' Up! Paper Trimmer has both a cutting and a scoring blade that stays on the cutter at all times. It's very convenient for creating cards like these.
