Today I am going to share with you how to make a pivot and flip fun fold card. You know I love a good fun fold card. I was inspired by my friend and fellow demonstrator Lisa Curcio with this amazing fun fold. I think you will love this fold that uses the Gallery Blooms Bundle paired with the Mixed Up Patterns Designer Paper.

If you love fun folds, yesterday on my YouTube LIVE I shared this Double Flap Triangle Fold. So like my Template Thursday projects, this concept follows my 1 Design, 2 ways, 2 looks.
For this card, I’m showcasing the beautiful Petals of Beauty Bundle, the Online Exclusive from November , paired with the stunning Brushed with Beauty Designer Series Paper. The soft colors and elegant florals make this fold perfect for birthdays, thank you cards, thinking-of-you cards, and more.
