Bay Window Fun Fold Card — Sending Sunshine Instagram Hop







Welcome to this month’s Sending Sunshine Instagram Hop! Our hop is all about sharing positivity, encouragement, and a little handmade joy. Each month, creators come together with the simple goal of inspiring others to spread kindness—whether that means offering a smile to someone who needs one, complimenting a stranger, checking in with a loved one, lending a helping hand, or simply remembering to take care of yourself (because you are worth it).

If you’d like to join our monthly hop (held every 2nd Friday at 1 PM ET), just message @craftyengineer or @missmissamakes on Instagram. We’d love to have you!


My Bay Window Fun Fold Card

For this month’s theme, I created a Bay Window Fun Fold Card, inspired by a fantastic tutorial from Mixed Up Craftson YouTube. This fold is such a great way to highlight larger scenes, so it was perfect for the stunning coastal imagery in the new Scenic Coast Suite coming in the upcoming Stampin’ Up! May–August Catalog (available May 5th).

This suite has completely stolen my heart—the soft shorelines, the peaceful skies, the pops of coastal color… I love everything about it. And with 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper, the Bay Window fold really lets you showcase more of those scenic views.


A Peek at the Details
