This kintsugi-inspired fun fold card was created with the Stampin’ Up!® Inspiring Imperfections Bundle and Kintsugi Inspirations Specialty Designer Series Paper. The vase with its gold-filled cracks is more than just a beautiful design element—it’s a reminder that God restores brokenness with grace. The fun fold layout adds extra interest and allows me to showcase multiple paper patterns, making this project both meaningful and a true WOW card idea you’ll want to try for yourself.
