For this card I used the Shark Frenzy Bundle by Stampin Up! I also added in the Whale of A Time Designer Series Paper from the Annual Catalog! It was perfect for sharks!
I wanted to do a fun fold card so looked up different templates for fun fold cards and found this one that Lisa Tedder had complied. After trying it out I have made some adjustments so that it lays better and when folded it doesn't hang out the left side.
Here's a link to a facebook live I did with step by step instructions! You may find it a little easier to watch this video if the template below does not make sense to you! I sometimes need to see it before I understand it!
