Spruced Up Fun Fold

 

Do you love a colorful Christmas! If so, you will love this Fun Fold I made for the BackStage Swaps in New Orleans! 

This is the same Fun Fold I did for Fun Fold Friday recently and you can watch the video on how to make this fold there! 

I made one for a UK Christmas and the Merry is for the USA stampers! I made 10 of each. 

For the ornament I embossed the snowflake with White Embossing Powder and then used my Wink of Stella to color the stripes. 

This Fun Fold opens up twice! See video to see it in action!
