Fun Fold - Flip Twist Fold Card

Today I’m sharing a Flip Twist Fun Fold card that is such a fun design to make! This card is perfect to showcase your Designer Series Paper and works beautifully for any occasion. The best part is when the card opens — the front panel twists 90 degrees, giving it a surprising and interactive look.

This fold can be made vertical or horizontal, depending on the direction of your diagonal score line. I recommend using Designer Series Paper with a neutral pattern direction, because when the card twists, the paper will change orientation.

Below are the measurements, and you can watch the video for the full step-by-step demonstration.

Measurements

Cardstock: Two pieces – 4″ x 10¼”
Designer Series Paper 1 piece: 3½” x 3½” Cut Diagonal (front panel)
***Optional if you wish to add a second piece for the inside you’ll need 2 pieces
Designer Paper or Embossed card stock: 2 of 3¾” x ½”
***Optional if you wish to add strips for the inside you’ll need 4 pieces
Basic White or Very Vanilla for the inside 4 1/3″ x 3 ¾”
Ribbon about 22″

Scoring Instruction and Assembly Tips

For both pieces of cardstock (4″ x 10¼”):
Place cardstock in your scoring tool with 10¼” at the top.
Score at 4¾”.
Move the cardstock so 4″ is at the top and make a small pencil mark.
Flip the cardstock.
Line up the bottom of the score line with the pencil mark and score diagonally.
Repeat these steps for both pieces.
See the video for the best visual and assembly.

🎥 The best way to learn this fold is to watch the video, where I walk you through each step and show exactly how the twist works. In the video, I share the card with the Silly Old Bear Designer Paper. On May 5th, that paper will be available, and shortly after that, I will post the cards.

Below, you can see the difference between the extra pieces inside. First, I was not adding the side strips, and it seemed off without those extra strips. I added the two side strips and WOW, what a difference.
