I did it! I created my first layout with texture paste. I loved it and will be doing that again!

The hexagons & the daisies are from Cricut design space, and I have links to the files below. The hexagons should just work, the daisies use the CTMH Flower Market Cartridge that may be purchased here if you don’t already own it.

The Isabella papers were so much fun to use. It felt fresh and fun to me!

Fun Fold Friday Card Tutorial

Written instructions: Quarter fold Download

Quarter Fold

Start with 2 pieces of cardstock

CS1: 4 3/16 x 11

CS2: 5 7/16 x 8 ½

Score CS1 at 2 3/4 from each end

Score CS2 at 2 1/8 from each end

Adhere the two pieces of cardstock together, lining up the edges with the score lines. Making a cross

Decorate as desired. (2 x 2 5/8) are the dimensions of the flaps that will show on the front of the card

Fold the card as you would close a packing box. Fold in the left side, fold up the bottom, fold in the right side, then tuck the left corner of the top flap underneath the left side panel

This card would be great to hold confetti or a monetary gift. (No worries of it slipping out!) The card fits in a standard envelope

I sent the Wander (masculine) card out before I took photos. (Or I think I did as I can’t find the card or photos that I took of it. sorry.)

Here are the written instructions for your fun fold book!
