Did you catch the blog hop I participated in a few days back on August 20th? Those of us in that hop each featured a fun fold card called the Pop-Out Bendy card. I used the Apple Harvest Stamp Set (available now) and Apple Blossoms Dies (which will be available September 1st) in my version of this fold.
Well… I got hooked and made a few more cards with this fold. One of them I shared on August 22nd. And the other two I’m showing you today.
In fact I just showed live on YouTube and on Facebook about an hour ago step-by-step directions for creating this Pop-Out Bendy Fun Fold Card with the Aspen Tree Dies, Inspired Thoughts Stamp Set, Leaf Fall Embossing Folder, and Lights Aglow Specialty Designer Paper. I also showed another version of this card I made with the Christmas Pinecones Dies. And now I’m sharing that video here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video by clicking here (or you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog post), scroll through the close-up photos that follow, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video. Please subscribe to my YouTube channel or tune into my events on my Facebook Page so you can get updates when I share and go live.
Below are measurements, close-up photos, and a product list for the Aspen Trees card I demonstrated. On Friday I’ll share the details for the Christmas Pines version of the card.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.

Miss Rachel, This is probably my favorite fancy fold card ever. You did an excellent job teaching/demonstrating and made what seemed impossible – do-able! Thank you. 🙂
Aww…thank you Alice. ❤️
Thanks for sharing this fabulous fun fold card!!! Love it! I changed up the Paper Pumpkin sunflower card by cutting one of the envelopes included in the PP kit and using it as panels on the front of the card. (I guess I thought the white was too stark.) This PP kit was probably my favorite!
It’s been a super popular kit. Glad you liked the idea I shared and made it your own. Thanks for sharing Julie!
I love this card and have added the pdf to my SU folders to be made in the near future. I came across a fortune cookie message that I saved during the beginning of Covid. I thought I would share it with you and plan to put it on cards I will be making for family and friends who are going through challenging time. It reads, “Be patient. Even in time, an egg will walk. I will be using the retired Hey Chick bundle when I make my card, because it has the little egg with the feet sticking out of it, walking. Take care and God bless you and your family.
What a fun fortune. Thanks for sharing Peggy. And thanks for your kind words. 😘
