Funky Folds Hop ! ~ April 2026

Welcome to my Corner of the World

Welcome to the Funky Folds Hop ~ a community for like minded paper crafters who love to make cards with funky folds and to share our ideas. Funky actually means “modern and stylish in an unconventional or striking way” so hang onto your hats and see what the talented artisans have to offer 🙂

We don’t have a specific theme ” anything goes” it is all about the fold!! Today I have a fold that came to me while eating breakfast one morning, I cannot recall seeing anything like it before so I have called it ‘A Drop Down Easel Surprise Fold!!!

  • Base Card: 91/4 x 8 1/2 White Card ~ score on the short side @ 4 1/4 and on the long side @5 1/2 & 5 5/8
  • Outside Layer 1: 5 1/4 x 4 Night of Navy Card
  • Outside Layer 2: 5 x 3 3/4 Decorative Paper
  • Inside Front: 5 1/4 x 4 Decorative Paper
  • Inside Back Layer 1: 5 1/4 x 4 Decorative Paper
  • Inside Back Layer 2: 5 x 3 3/4 White Card
