So here's the thing, I did try to google and find out what this fun fold was called. Do you know what happens when a crafter googles card folds? Down the rabbit hole I went. Hours later, I found many opinions on what things were called. So - here's a (no need to name) fun fold:
The christmas card was my original card with this fold (from a demo event last September), and the other 2 are the ones I showed in my What's Up Wednesday live - here's the link for the replay on my YouTube channel.
Here are the cardstock measurements:
Score and burnish the base and strip. Adhere the background piece and the piece on the front of the strip before adhering the strip to the base.
Once assembled, add the DSP strip (1/2" x 5 1/4") or cardstock to the front panel if the design calls for it.
Add a stamped liner to the inside of the card (or just stamp the cardstock if it is light coloured) and stamp the envelope.
And finally, decorate the front of the card. So many options. I love these colours - they are bright and summery and happy.
This is an easy fun fold and gives extra dimension to your design. I would love to see your version of this card. Please post in the comments or on my Facebook page.
Sets used: Hey Chuck, On the Ocean, Cheerful Daisies and a retired set called Spruced Up.
Happy stamping everyone!
