Designer Paper Magic! A WOW Fun Fold

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Have you ever fallen in love with a piece of designer paper and thought, I don’t want to waste a single inch of this!? If that sounds like you, you’re going to LOVE today’s project. I’m sharing a fun, eye-catching designer paper fun fold that not only maximizes your paper but also delivers a big WOW factor with very little effort. This is one of those cards that looks fancy and impressive, yet comes together easily—perfect for using up your favorite papers while making something truly special.

One of my favorite things about this fun fold is how efficient it is. With just a few strategic cuts and folds, you’ll be amazed at how much impact you get with little to no waste. It’s a fantastic way to stretch your designer paper, especially those patterns you’ve been hoarding because they’re “too pretty to cut.” Trust me—this design lets the paper shine while keeping the process simple and enjoyable.

In today’s Facebook LIVE REPLAY / YouTube video, I walk you through the entire process step by step. You’ll see exactly how the folds come together, how the layers create that WOW moment when the card is opened, and how easy it is to adapt this design using different designer papers, colors, and themes. Whether you’re crafting for birthdays, thank-you cards, or just for fun, this fold is one you’ll come back to again and again.

On my second poinsettia card sample, I embossed Vellum cardstock and cut them out to create a beautiful focal point on my card.

On the third sample I used Washi Tape between the lines from the embossing folder. I stamped the flower in Cherry Cobbler and then lightly sponged the edges after cutting it out.

On my last sample from the Joyful Christmas stamp set, I used the “Reverse Spotlighting” technique. The Cherry Cobbler really pops against the Silver Shimmer Paper.
