Welcome to our second Funky Folds Blog Hop.
We are a group of like minded paper crafters who love to make cards with funky folds. Funky actually means “modern and stylish in an unconventional or striking way”… so we are featuring cards that are not your usual rectangle/square portrait or landscape style. Think ‘easel’, ‘pop-up’, ‘gatefold’, ‘z-fold’, ‘shaped’ or 3D cards etc. The list is endless.
All Blog Hops have an ‘anything goes’ theme using any type of ‘funky’ card fold and I’ve made a Tent Card featuring the Vista View Window Cutting Dies (Spellbinders), ‘Home Sweet Home’ 6×6 Paper Collection (Paper Rose) and Quiet Reflections Stamp Set (Stampin’ Up!).
If you look closely you can see that I’ve made the window planter box 3D. It pops out when the card is removed from the envelope.
I love the living room scene and pot plants from the paper collection and they pair really well with the window dies; the sentiments were chosen, sadly because I was in need of a Sympathy Card 😢.
However, I do own the stamp set and all the dies from the Spellbinders – Windows with a View Collection and cannot wait to create a variety of 3D cards with them in the near future … most likely one will appear in next month’s Blog Hop!
I decided to include a tutorial for today’s Tent Card with a 3D Planter Box with my Home & Garden/Plentiful Plants Tent Card Tutorial to form a BUNDLE which can be purchased from my Tutorial Shop –
Up next is the lovely and talented, Chantell Randall and I’m keen to see what she has made especially for our Funky Folds Blog Hop –

Oh that’s cute Bron! Adorable little window box. Chantell x x
So gorgeous Bronwyn. I adore the look of your pop out planter box in front of the window – and then we can look through the window to a wonderful lounge room filled with books, plants and a relaxing chair. xxx
great fold and I do like those dies !!! thanks for sharing with us
Such a beautiful card, Bronwyn! Perfect for a sympathy card! I love the big window and being able to ‘peek’ through to the inside. Thanks so much for sharing your amazing talents! Rochelle xo
This is fabulous Bron. I love that 3D planter box and the view inside. I really love how you have used this as a sympathy card. It is much better than flowers and can stand to be admired by all. x
Gorgeous as always, I love the effect of looking through the window!
Great funkyfold card.
