Today I’m sharing a Joy Fold Card with you.

This is a style that can be used for just about any ocassion, and can be decorated any way you like. In my opinion they have a bit more pizazz than a regular card.

These cards have been around for a very long time, and there are a couple of ways it can be made, but this one seems to be the most popular format.

It is incredibly easy to make, but is admittedly a little fiddly. Especially the first time around.  Because of this, it’s difficult to explain, so I’ve made a video for you.

In the video, I promised measurements, and they are listed below. The finished card is almost the same as a regular card size. (Some of these sizes are slightly different to what I quoted in the video.)
