How to Make a Fun Fold with any Layout

Today I am going to show you how to take your favorite layout and make it into a fun fold. By layout I am talking about the way you have designed the front of the card.

You will notice that these two layouts are the same. I have changed the colors and flipped the Country Woods Designer Series Paper over. Not only is the layout the same but the card design is the same. A simple fold card.

For the third card you would almost just think that you were seeing the inside of the card, but that is not the change. I have done a Z fold card which makes the card have a WOW factor to the recipient. You will notice it is basically the same as the card above but instead of cutting the cardstock at 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 and scoring it at 4 1/4, I cut it a 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 and scored it at 2 1/8 & 4 1/4 and created a Z fold card.
The Z fold card base can be used to create 6 different cards so it it a very versatile and easy fold that just takes an extra score line to create POP

In this last card I have used the Z fold once again to create an Easel card. This time I cut the cardstock at 11 x 4 1/4 and scored at 5 1/2 & 2 3/4. Folding the score lines inward creates the easel. I have decorated the front of the card the same using the Sketched Butterflies Bundle, changed the color to Lemon Lolly, changed the ribbon to the 3/8" Frayed Grosgrain. This time I added a 3 rectangles cut from dies to the inside of the card, popped up on Dimensionals to keep the card opened.
