Double Column Cards are the secret weapon in my cardmaking arsenal that consistently makes recipients gasp, “I can’t believe you MADE this!” When I first stumbled upon this technique while desperately trying to use up my floral paper scraps at 2AM (don’t judge my crafting hours), I accidentally created something too good to give away. Three cups of coffee and several paper cuts later, I perfected this fold-out design that’s surprisingly simple to make yet looks like you spent hours crafting.
