Z fold was my favorite. I've made them before, but I always start from scratch. How much easier to start with an accurate card blank! Love that you get 2 for 1 also.
It's never too late to review all of the types of folds. This video was one of the most clear and succinct in my many years of crafting cards. Thank you so much from a veteran card maker!
Thank you for this tutorial, simply for the measurements! Even though I have been crafting cards for many years it doesn’t hurt to be reminded of all of the ‘fun’ card shapes we can create with a little imagination - and of course remembering 😂. Thanks again Sandy 🌸
Well demonstrated giving me time to watch closely, write dimensions, and to feel confident in the easy of trying these folds! Thank you Altenew for providing this wonderful instruction!
Hello from Clifton Park, NY. I really only make the basic card folds. Now with this video, I will try the rest. I like the Aperture card. Wow, you make that one so easy. I will give it a try.
Great help… love your voice and cadence. Nice and slow so I can write it down. Will make one of each to create templates with instructions. Think you just save me lots of $$$. Thank you🎉
Such a great tutorial! I’m Subscribing & hope to see more Tutorials. Clear, concise and held my interest. Well done and Thank You! PS: Figuring out the measurements and where to score and fold has been one of my problems. But this has helped tremendously as it is the basis of more than a simple standard fold.
This is an amazing vid on card types for beginners; Amy was so calm as she explained them,WoW!! Thank you, #TeamAltenew!! 💜🥰🤩👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 My fav: Z-Fold Tri-fold cards, as you get 2 scored cards out of the process!❤
I really liked the aperture card. It's great to be able to hide something cute on the inside. Thank you for putting all the different ways to fold cards in one place!
This is hard.... I love all the fun folds.... but if I had to choose, I think I would have to choose the "Simple Stepper Card" and the "Gatefold" ... Thank you so much for sharing this.... I have to save in my Card Fun Folds folder....
Thank you for demonstrating all the different types of folded cards. I am still a newbie to card making and this will definitely come in handy. My favorite is #6. Do you have a video showing the technique creating this card with the vellum? Thank you!
I have always been partial to card styles that have movement. Whether it be an aperture, spinner or shaker. I must say that I am now going to try the tri-fold book style. Thank you. 😊
My favorite is the gate card. But to be truthful there are so many I haven’t tried and with this detailed “class” video I will be trying all of them. Thank you for providing all of us such an amazing tutorial.
I loved the last card. So simple and there's a lot of things that you as a maker can do to enhance the card. I'll definitely be making this card today 😀! ❤
Great tips! I love and use all of these folds when card making, but I love a beautifully decorated gatefold card all the time! But a good slimline card is a lot of fun too! Thank you!
Hi!, my favourite type of card to make is the Z fold card! Your video and instructions are so easy to follow, I wrote everything down for a reference for me to follow, and I will refer back to watch the video again for all your decorating ideas! Thanks, Joan
This video is a game changer for me in card making. Thank you for sharing this great tutorial. Who would have thought how an A2 card leaves zero scraps !!!!
What a great video! I started stamping/card-making in 1995 and have never tried some of these folds. My favorite fold is still the Top-fold; it’s just so versatile. Thank you!
Hi, just subscribed to your channel. I used to make lots of cards and I loved doing them. I haven’t made a card for over 2 years now and watching your video has made me realise that I miss it very much. All my stuff is in storage though,‘once I get my stuff out of storage I will be definitely making lots of cards again. TFS, looking forward to lots more videos.
Welcome back to the world of card making! It’s wonderful to hear that you’ll be getting back into crafting. We’re looking forward to seeing what you create and are excited to share more videos with you. Thanks for subscribing, and happy crafting! 😊
Thank you for this video! I'm new to card making and this really helped me with some projects I'm working. I'm using the gate fold to make wedding invitations for my friends.💙 I've hand made brochures and a few other things in college, but it's ben a while and I couldn't remember all the fold techniques.
Great and informative video!! Thank you! My go to is usually a side fold or top fold, but I really love making gate fold cards. The possibilities are endless for ways to close them. I've been playing with die cuts that will allow interlocking pieces to make them close. It's been fun learning what will work and what won't!
This is a great tutorial for beginners and a good reminder for those who have been crafting awhile. I did like the Aperature, spinner card, as have not done one of those.
How exciting to have all these card folds in one video. I love them all. 2 of my favorites I want to try are #5 Aperture card with the spinning HUGS. Also #11 Z-Fold Trifold card. Thank you so much for making this great reference video❤
Great tutorial! I have made many of these folded cards but I usually create a top fold. Thank you for detailing so many options in one concise video. This is an excellent source of instruction & inspiration. 💙
I'm a pretty basic card maker and rely on the standard side fold cards most of the time, but I'd like to try the easel card. Great quick guide for card folds, thanks!
Thank you for this great tutorial Amy, Lydia and Altenew. An Easel Card is my favorite as I love dreaming up a decorated die cut or sentiment to prop it open!😍
Great tutorial! It’s a good reminder how easy it is to change up a basic card. I liked the z-fold tri fold card. I want to do one of those with a scene. Thanks for the great explanations with measurements.
Love them all, but interactive and fun fold cards make my heart happy, so the shaker, shaped, die cut window stepper, trifold, the gate fold and spinner, easel, etc… are my favorites! 🫣I am warming up to slim cards…Thank you Amy and Lydia for sharing!
I love watching your videos. I'm new to card making and have learned so many things from your channel. It is so hard for me to pick my favorite. Since I'm new and all. But thank you for the education love your channel ❤❤❤❤
This is a great video and explains the processes quite clearly. My fave card shape is the diagonal fold .. altho decorating it is somewhat difficult for my limited, semi-creative talent!😀 Thanks for the opportunity to enter your giveaway!❤
Wow! What a fantastic video, thank you SO much 😊! I enjoyed that you took your time and explained everything step by step without rushing. This is a great reminder of all the fun folds that there is to make!
I love making every style but enjoy using the Square and can't resist the Slimline Cards! Thank you though for the other fun folds that I may not have used in a long time. Carol-Lynn
Very well done. I need to be reminded of all the great options out there. I love the surprise of an aperture card, but your gatefold options were terrific. Thanks for all the inspiration!

Thank you so much. I'm going to make templates so I will have this on hand at all times. I'm so excited
I love making easel cards. My grandma loves them because she likes to display her cards and she finds them to be the best for that.
This is the best instructional video for specs ever
We're glad you love it!
Folks, one of your best videos.

Watching the replay from Palm Bay FL. This is a fantastic video. My favorite is the tri fold z fold card. So fun. TFS😊
I need to save this video so I can master each. Thank you!
Thank you for an excellent tutorial. This was so helpful for getting out of a slump of making the same kind of cards.
Great demonstration! I love that you took the time to really explain what to do! 😊😊😊
Thank you for this tutorial! 🙏❤️My favourite cards are the easel card and the trifold cards.
Great tutorial & an extraordinary instructor! Smart, clear, concise and probably the best tutorial in the crafting space!
I love the Slimline Card because it has more room for your creativity. 🦄
Well demonstrated giving me time to watch closely, write dimensions, and to feel confident in the easy of trying these folds! Thank you Altenew for providing this wonderful instruction!
I love all the ways you have shown here. I am a new card maker. Thanks for all the great knowledge
Hello from Clifton Park, NY. I really only make the basic card folds. Now with this video, I will try the rest. I like the Aperture card. Wow, you make that one so easy. I will give it a try.
Well done. Saved for later use. I loved this video. Thank you.
Great help… love your voice and cadence. Nice and slow so I can write it down. Will make one of each to create templates with instructions. Think you just save me lots of $$$. Thank you🎉
Glad it was helpful!
Love the z fold at the end of the video. Nice that you can get two cards out of that :)

My fav: Z-Fold Tri-fold cards, as you get 2 scored cards out of the process!❤
I’ve created many of these folds, but I haven’t tried a z-fold! I love how easy it is to do. Definitely trying this! Thx for the tutorial, Amy!
That's what I said :)
What a useful video! Thank you, Amy, for your clear instructions.
I really liked the aperture card. It's great to be able to hide something cute on the inside. Thank you for putting all the different ways to fold cards in one place!
To make a traditional card base I score the whole length at 4 1/4 and then rotate to cut at 5 1/2. Score once, cut once and done ❤
This is hard.... I love all the fun folds.... but if I had to choose, I think I would have to choose the "Simple Stepper Card" and the "Gatefold" ... Thank you so much for sharing this.... I have to save in my Card Fun Folds folder....
I’m sitting between the aperture and the Z fold. Haven’t tried either, will do at least one of each in my next few creates! Thank you!
Thank you for demonstrating all the different types of folded cards. I am still a newbie to card making and this will definitely come in handy. My favorite is #6. Do you have a video showing the technique creating this card with the vellum? Thank you!
Thank you for the very informative video - really enjoyed it. I really like the tri/z fold card the best.
I really liked how you had all the folds in one place. My favorite is the appetite card.
I have always been partial to card styles that have movement. Whether it be an aperture, spinner or shaker. I must say that I am now going to try the tri-fold book style. Thank you. 😊
My favorite is the gate card. But to be truthful there are so many I haven’t tried and with this detailed “class” video I will be trying all of them. Thank you for providing all of us such an amazing tutorial.
This is a beautiful card fold making tutorial ! Thank you for sharing ! 😊
Thanks for watching! 😊
I didn’t even know I’d like a slimline card until I watched this video. Thank you for sharing!
I loved the last card. So simple and there's a lot of things that you as a maker can do to enhance the card. I'll definitely be making this card today 😀! ❤
Great Tutorial…thanks for all of your measurements. ♥️♥️♥️
Loved that y’all did this! So very helpful. Thanks 😊 Hard to say which one is my favorite but I do kinda like the spinner! 😊
I think the Aperture card is my favourite. I’ve never tried to make one , but you have inspired me to give it a go. Thank you for a great tutorial.😊
#11 is my fave...heading to the craft corner shortly to cut some bases so I can make some tomorrow while it's raining!😊 Thanks for all the ideas...❤
Ooh these are marvelous! I like the stepper and the easel card folds! But have not tried the book-style trifold! Excited to try! ❤😊
Thank you for so many great card ideas. The Z fold is my favorite but it was hard to pick just one.
Great tips! I love and use all of these folds when card making, but I love a beautifully decorated gatefold card all the time! But a good slimline card is a lot of fun too! Thank you!
I loved this video - what a great straightforward resource - thank you! My favorite is the easel card because it gives a sense of 3D dimension.
Hi!, my favourite type of card to make is the Z fold card! Your video and instructions are so easy to follow, I wrote everything down for a reference for me to follow, and I will refer back to watch the video again for all your decorating ideas! Thanks, Joan

They are all great card designs, but the book style trifold was my favorite! Thanks for the tips!
You are so right, boredom sets-in making the same type of card base all of the time. I love the tri-fold z- fold card. I’m going to try it next. TFS❤
This is a great tutorial for beginners and a good reminder for those who have been crafting awhile.
I did like the Aperature, spinner card, as have not done one of those.
I really like the aperture card that spins! Easier to mail than shaker and multiple fold cards that can be bulky! Great video!
How exciting to have all these card folds in one video. I love them all. 2 of my favorites I want to try are #5 Aperture card with the spinning HUGS. Also #11 Z-Fold Trifold card. Thank you so much for making this great reference video❤

I'm a pretty basic card maker and rely on the standard side fold cards most of the time, but I'd like to try the easel card. Great quick guide for card folds, thanks!
I had a hard time deciding…so I am saying they were all my faves and very helpful information when I get stuck and need fresh ideas. Thank you
This was a great reminder to get out of my rut of side-folding cards. The Book Style Tri-Fold Card is next up for me! Thank you very much!
Glad you made this video. Now I won't struggle when trying to cut them out!
My favorite is the aperture card. My next favorite is the Z-Fold Trifold
Thank you for this great tutorial Amy, Lydia and Altenew. An Easel Card is my favorite as I love dreaming up a decorated die cut or sentiment to prop it open!😍
I am new to cardmaking. I love all the ways you have shown to make cards in this video. Thanks so much!!

A good reminder of the different card styles. I’ve done most of them already. All very fun to make. Thank you for this. 😁❤️😘👏
Love them all, but interactive and fun fold cards make my heart happy, so the shaker, shaped, die cut window stepper, trifold, the gate fold and spinner, easel, etc… are my favorites! 🫣I am warming up to slim cards…Thank you Amy and Lydia for sharing!
Thanks for doing this great summary of different card folds and shapes! My favorites are shaped and aperture, but I really want to try the Z-fold.
I love watching your videos. I'm new to card making and have learned so many things from your channel. It is so hard for me to pick my favorite. Since I'm new and all. But thank you for the education love your channel ❤❤❤❤

Thanks for the tutorial with clear measurements for cutting and scoring! Time to utilize different folds to “shape” up my cards!
I love making every style but enjoy using the Square and can't resist the Slimline Cards! Thank you though for the other fun folds that I may not have used in a long time. Carol-Lynn
What a great go-to video for all the basic folds. Thank you.
AWESOMENESS!!! so good to review all the ways that you can make a card!😊
This is an awesome video! Thank you for sharing it. My favorites are the aperture and the trifold. So unique!

Aperture is my favorite. So versatile and full of fun surprises!
I wish I had seen this video 10 years ago so I would know how to do all these cards! Fantastic tutorial! Thank you! ❤
Love to change up folds on my cards. Thanks for sharing your fold ideas.
I have mostly made the standard side fold, so this is very inspiring to try other fold styles. I like the ideas shared for the aperture type.
Thank you for the advice, especially the easel fold which is a favourite for me ❤
Great video! I’m new to card making and I look forward to trying some of these.
I LOVE them all but my favorite are Gatefolds and Z Folds! Thanks for showing them all off!!!
Love all of them. Thank you for the step by step folding instructions. I hope to try the z-fold that is angled, and the aperture card soon.
Thank you thank you thank you ! Fantastically explained and for once I understand these different folds 😊
Awesome! I stopped buying cards when I got my Cricut. This video gives me even more ways to create cards! Thank you!
So many great ideas, but the book style trifold is my favorite! I’m already designing cards in my head!
I love it, I love it, how you explain and put the measurements on the screen, thank you
Love this video so much! I often forget about all of the different shaped cards to make. Thank you! ❤
I've only done a few, but I do like the look of the slimline cards. So simple!
