FUN IN THE SUN ALTERNATE PROJECTS
I’m sharing the love with some Paper Pumpkin inspiration. It’s time for out APPT – “A Paper Pumpkin Thing” blog hop and it is full of inspiration. This month we’re sharing alternate ideas featuring the July 2023 “Fun in the Sun” Paper Pumpkin kit.
I’ve been falling in love with the ‘Fun in the Sun’ Paper Pumpkin kit – I mean, who wouldn’t? These side step fun fold cards are an absolute blast to create and share!

Have you tried these designs? I love to see your creations! Be sure to share them on #shareyourcrafts post every Saturday on my Facebook Page.
My blog hop share is this fold flat z fold card. 
When it’s closed it fits into the cute envelopes that comes in the kit (or a standard medium envelope).
This view shows the card opened and folded flat so the front and back of the card are displayed at the same time.

I also created this triple tier pull out card. I have more details and a helpful video for this card here.
These are the adorable side step fun fold cards created per the kit instructions.
I have a July Paper Pumpkin share challenge on my Facebook page. I love to see your projects and you could win a free kit.
I love your cards. They are all so creative and beautiful. Thank you also for the instructions for your cards. You are so kind to offer them to me. Have a great creative day!!
Thank you and YOU have a creative day too!
I have all my pieces cut for the fun in the sun, triple tier. but i cant figure out how it goes together. there doesn’t seem to be a place to make the slits for the slider? thanks!
The Fun in the Sun was an experiment that I did take notes on. Sorry. I am hoping you can make it work with my video from the original: https://stampwithtami.com/blog/2023/07/blog-hop-video-xmas-in-july/
I highly recommend using scrap printer or other scratch paper to test fun folds you haven’t done before so you don’t mess up any good paper.
