Fun Fold Friday- Turtle Friends Easel Card

 

Fun Fold Friday with this super adorable turtle from the Turtle Friends stamp set. This Fun Fold is a combination of two folds. It has similar measurements to a Z fold or what I call a 2 3/4 card but also pops up to an Easel card as well. I am making these cute guy for a card swap and love how easy the turtle is to make with the Turtle Punch.

Here is what the card looks like when you unfold it completely. There is a little spot to write on where you see the solid cardstock in the center. 

Once opened you can lay the bottom flat and stick the turtle panel behind the Birthday message to form an easel. I kept this cute guy pretty simple but you could dress him up with a party hat. 

You can make this card too when you shop with me at my online store and by watching the video below.
