Double Flap Triangle Fold

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.
