July Monday Makes with the Acorns – Fun Fold Cards Ideas

It’s time to share the July Monday Makes. For those of you wondering what these are – I hold a team event each Monday where we have a secret project to share. The idea is that no one other than the person who came up with the idea knows what the end project looks like. But that person has to describe how to make it so that we can follow along.

These are the finished projects from July.

Carol shared this first card with us and I also shared it on a Facebook Live. You will also find it and the cutting instructions in a July blog post. Alternatively, click on the picture and it will take you right there.

This second card is one that I shared with the team. The card itself is made from a sheet of the Hand-Penned double-sided paper that’s cut to the same size as a sheet of A4 card stock(21.0 x 29.7 cm). With some scoring, cutting and folding two pockets are created on the front of the card. They are large enough to hold a couple of bookmarks or a small gift and also a decorated piece of Basic White.

I promised to keep the third card of the month much easier. This is another card I’ve shared and there’s also a recording of the Facebook Live. Click on the picture to see the video and you can download a free copy of the printable instruction from the description.

Carol shared the instructions for our fourth card of the month. It’s a take on the W Fold card. It looks like a standard card when closed but there’s a surprise when it is opened up.

I hope you have enjoyed seeing our July Monday Makes. My plan is to make some easier cards in August, but I guess only time will tell.

Please note that at the time of writing the Hand-Penned paper is on sale with 15% off. This is only valid until 2 August 2021.

If you shop online and your order is less that £150, don’t forget to use August’s host code – XEUYUDTF and receive a thank you gift and card from me.

Spending more than £150, please don’t use the code. You will have your own rewards to spend, which means you can order extra products for free from the current catalogues or clearance rack.

Products for the last two cards will not be available until 3 August. This is when both the July-December Mini Catalogue and the Sale-A-Bration Catalogue go live. If you’d like to know more, check back on 3 August for more details.

Happy stamping
