Thank you so much for joining me today for Fun Fold Friday! I had an absolute blast creating this fun and interactive shadowbox card using the Otterly Adorable Otters Suite. These playful otters make such a charming focal point, and I couldn’t resist adding a few fun elements to bring their underwater world to life. 🦦✨
I hope you enjoyed watching the process and are inspired to try this unique fold yourself. It’s such a great way to add dimension and surprise to your cards! Let me know in the comments if you plan to give it a go, and don’t forget to share your creations—I’d love to see them!
Thank you again for crafting with me today. See you next week for more fun folds and creative inspiration!
Materials Needed:

• Designer Series Paper (DSP) for front panel: 4” x 5 1/4”
White Cardstock for the inside sentiment 3 ¼ x 5 1/4
Instructions:
1. Score the base cardstock:
• Score at 1 inch, 4 inches, 4 1/2 inches, and 8 inches along the 10 1/2” side.
2. Prepare the inside panel:
• Take the 3 1/4” x 5 1/4” piece of Designer Series Paper.
• Glue this piece to the inside panel of the base.
• Using a circle die or punch, cut out a circle in the center of this panel to create the shadowbox effect.
3. Prepare the front panel:
• Take the 4” x 5 1/4” piece of Designer Series Paper.
• Adhere it to the 4 1/4” x 5 1/2” front panel cardstock.
4. Assemble the shadowbox:
• Fold along the scored lines to form the shadowbox structure.
• Take the 1/2-inch tab (between the 4” and 4 1/2” score lines) and apply glue. Attach this tab to the front panel.
• When the card is closed, it forms the shadow box shape.
5. Decorate:
• Decorate the shadowbox and front panel as desired, featuring the adorable otter and any additional embellishments.
This will create a dimensional shadow box card with a fun interactive element.
