I recently used the Front Flip Fun Fold as one of the cards for my July Make & Take class. It was a huge hit, so I decided to share it here, too! I first saw this fun fold make by Karen Titus, a while back, and I, absolutely, love it! The Front Flip Fun Fold is quick, easy, versatile and can be simple or easily “stepped up.” This truly is a card that you can make in five minutes! In fact, I made three in less than twenty. Let’s see how it’s done!
Today’s card is a perfect example of the old adage “less is more.” It takes so little to make the Front Flip Fun Fold, but I find them so appealing. Above, I used Lost Lagoon for the card base and paired it with a floral print from the Inked Botanicals 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper. I stamped the floral image on the front in Calypso Coral, added a Linen Bow and embellished using the Tinsel Gems Three-Pack. On the inside, I simply stamped the smaller floral image from Inked & Tiled and added a sentiment.
In the video below, you will find instructions for cutting and assembling a Front Flip Fun Fold. Below the video are measurements, supplies, and diagram with a downloadable PDF. Additionally, you will three more samples using this design below. Leave me a comment, I would love to know your thoughts on making this card!

Additional front flip fun fold Cards
Below, you will find three more examples of Front Flip Fun Folds. In the first one, I used Brewed for You for a masculine birthday card. Next, I used Hello Irresistible Designer Series Paper for the design and simply stamped the sentiments. Lastly, I, again, used another design from Inked Botanicals Designer Series Paper.
