Sometimes you just have to create a fun fold card for a creative challenge. I joined some friends in creating a card which had certain parameters in how to create it.

Here is what we had to use:
- 3 different patterned paper
- 6 different shapes
- 4 different layers
- 3 different “bling”
Looking at what needed to be used I thought a fun fold card would be the perfect solution.
So right off, in the above photo you can see that I used the 3 different patterned paper.

Next was the 6 different shapes. Lets count them out.
- Oval tag
- Scalloped oval tag
- Rectangle Belly Band
- Corner punch
- Square inside
- Each fold in the card is a different size shape
Let’s go over the layers. Good thing we only needed four…but I did get it.

- The belly band actually has 3 layers itself.
- The vanilla oval.
- The scalloped oval.
- Dimensionals used to layer it to the band.
- The little square inside has a layer and it is a layer.
- Each patterned paper as well as the center vanilla are layers.
- With all that I think I hit the number 4 for layers.

Last be not least, it is “BLING” time!
- Look at the tag on the belly band. There is one bling by the flower.
- The inside square flap has a little bee as well as the center vanilla.
- But I am also counting as bling, the “HELLO friend” is embossed.
Anyway, I had a blast creating this card. One of those times thinking outside the box.
So what do you think about this card? Leave a comment.
