Open the Door Fun Fold!

I found out about this card from a video I had watched.  I don't remember whose video it was.  I had viewed many videos quite a while ago. I failed to write down the name of the demonstrator.  However, I did change the measurements a bit, to make it my own creativity. This card can be a lot of fun to do.  Your fun fold is a "door" that opens to a nice surprise. That surprise can be whatever you want! I made mine with a new set coming out in our 2024 September - December Mini Catalog.  The suite is the Wintery Tree Tops Suite.  I used the Designer Series Paper, stamp set, embossing folder, and gems from that suite. Below are the details of what is needed for this card.  You can view the video as many times as you want to see how it is put together. Note:  It is up to you what colors and products you wish to use.  This is an example of what can be done.
