Cool folding cards that are easy to make!!!!!!!
Working on a Blocks Card. I found this wonderful tutorial for a folding blocks card and I finally have it put together and can now start to decorate it. This is a very cool design and I have only seen this on one site but you can find this fun and different tutorial here:

Here are some pictures from her video to help you make this amazing card!!
Here are some pictures from her video to help you make this amazing card!!
Start with a 12x12 sheet of paper
Cut out a 4 1/2 x 12 piece and a 4 1/2 x 1 piece (score this piece at 1/2", this is your hinge)
Score the larger paper at every 1 1/2"
Now cut as shown:
Apply glue as shown (can also use a tape runner)
Now to add the hinge!
Now it's time to decorate!! This makes me 'OH SO HAPPY!!' The squares are cut at 1 1/4", you will need 18 of these to cover all squares!
As you can see by the photo above this card folds flat so it can be placed in a standard envelope to be mailed.
Here is an idea that my card girls came up with at our last card class: a flower holder or a pen holder!
And her name is JOY!
Supplies Needed
To make more of these cute cards you might want to pick up some extra supplies!
