Festive Friends Spanner Fun Fold Card Tutorial

 Hi Friends!

Today I’m sharing a festive and playful Spanner Fun Fold Card featuring the brand new Festive Friends bundle, along with Large Gold Hoops and the beautiful Lights of Aurora designer paper from Stampin’ Up!®. This unique fun fold is a great way to add extra interest to your handmade Christmas cards, and it’s easier to create than it looks.

The Festive Friends bundle is filled with adorable images and versatile sentiments, making it perfect for holiday cardmaking. Pairing it with the Lights of Aurora paper and metallic accents creates a stunning background that feels magical and bright. The spanner fun fold design ties it all together with a creative twist that will wow anyone who opens the card.

Here's the full measurements and supply list so you can easily follow along and recreate this card yourself.

This project also ties into the upcoming Christmas Card Class I’m collaborating on with Denise Cox of Birdsnest Designs. We’ll be featuring the Festive Friends bundle, creating 4 festive cards together, and offering the chance to earn up to 4 bonus card tutorials.
