This card had a special fold, so it took me a while searching Pinterest and You Tube to find the exact fold I was looking for. I finally found several versions of what was referred to as the Trifold card. Thi is my version.
The card is made using a 12 by 12" piece of Whisper White card stock, which ends up making 4
of these cards
Score the 12 by 12 card stock at 4 and 8"; Turn and cut the card stock at the 6" mark (cutting the paper in half). Each half makes 2 cards.
Take one of the halves and put the other aside.
With the 6" side facing up, measure 1" in from the left outside edge of the top and make a small pencil mark. Do the same at the bottom, making a mark 1" in from the right outside lower edge
Line up both marks on the trimmer (at an angle) and cut into 2 pieces..
Decorating:
Taking a 12 by 12" piece of Sweet Soiree DSP I trimmed off 1/8" from each end , and using the above directions I made a "liner" trifold - and adhered it to the Whisper White base.
The back of the card with stamped with the Distressed Dot background stamp using Marina Mist ink.
The trim on the top was made by punching Blushing Bride card stock using the Decorative Edge punch,
Decoration on the inside was done using the Sweet Soiree Memories & more card pack as well as images from Color Me Happy coloured with Stampin' Blendabilities. Close up pictures are below.
