3 Stampin' Up! Wildflower Birthday Fun Fold Cards + Free Online Class Video

I was so inspired after Tuesday's Great, Big Card Swap Showcase! (Watch the replay) I chose three of the cards from the swap and recreated the fancy folds using the Wildflower Birthday Designer Paper. I love this beautiful paper and the laser cut pieces make it so easy to decorate these special cards.

This Vertizontal Card was inspired by Terry Bigg's swap card. She used the Bistro Burger stamp set to create this fancy fold card (Original card design by Robin Armbrecht.) This design includes a vertical card with a small flap adhered around a horizontal cardstock base. Here's my version:

Every month, the "Curly Girls and Karra", a family of stampers, create their swap cards together virtually (since most of them live many states apart). They usually choose a fun fold or technique that they all incorporate while customizing and personalizing their cards with different stamp sets. Their cards inspired this next fun fold. See them here. (Original inspiration from "Stampin' Notes" on Facebook.)

The last Wildflower Birthday Pop-Up Card was inspired by Pat Williams. Every month, she shares the most amazing fun fold cards for the Great, Big Card Swap. Usually they are card designs that I've never seen before. (Not sure who to credit for the original fold design.) 

Here's my version of what I'm calling the Interlocking Double Gate Fold Card. After the livestream last night, I changed the designer paper on the front of the card to create more contrast against the white cardstock squares. I like it so much better with the Pool Party design. Leave a comment and let me know what you think after you watch the video tutorial!
