I’ve been waiting to share this really fun fold card with you because you’re the best!
First the details of the products used then I’ll get to the construction. The Bohemian Designer Series Paper makes a real statement front and center, so I used the coordinating Boho Chic Embossing Folder to add some texture. The sentiment comes from the Friendly Wishes stamp set.
The inside makes a statement all on it’s own with the sentiment from Another Thank You and a simple strip of the same DSP.
How to construct the card itself.
Start with a regular 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ piece of card stock which is scored and folded in half at 4 1/4″. With the card stock horizontal, line the left edge of the card on the 3″ mark and position the cutting blade at the 3″ mark. Now slide the cutting blade up to the 5/8″ mark so you’ve got a slit in the card.
One more cut to go and we’re home free.
Rotate the card stock clockwise so that the card is now vertical and line the long edge on the left at the 2 1/2″ mark and position the cutting blade at the 3″ mark. Now slide the cutting blade up to the 5/8″ mark so you’ve got a second slit in the card.
Now all you have to do is flip that top right corner to the outside and fold it down.
Then fold the card n half so that the flipped corner is on the outside.
To emboss the card unfold the flip and emboss then fold it back into place.
It may seem hard at first, so practice it a time or two with some scrap paper, but once you do it once, it’s pretty easy. Let me know what you think.
