Double Drape Fold Card (Curtain Card)

 We finally got some rain yesterday, and wow did we get rain - and thunderstorms - and tornado warnings- and what a relief!  The humidity has not quite broken but the temperature is more reasonable - 26 degrees!  Can you believe my son feels cold and is wearing a double layer of sweat shirts?!!

So, feeling cool and a little refreshed I thought I'd work with some brighter cooler looking paper - Fresh Fruit - and make a fold I've seen on Pinterest but have not tried.


The double drape fold card is a unique way to display the lovely DSPs that Stampin' Up has. Over the next few days I will be making different cards featuring different ways to do this particular fold.
Today I learn  the double fold or curtain fold.

With this drape fold, there are folds on both sides of the DSP which then meet in the middle.  The scoring therefore  needs to be done on both sides of the DSP.

There are numerous videos on You Tube that show how this fold is made, but the one I found the most helpful was made by Deb Valder here

Supplies Used:
Stamps:    Fresh Fruit
Inks:  Black Memento, Early Espresso, Peekaboo Peach, Flirty Flamingo, Pear Pizzazz, Old Olive
Papers:   Peekaboo Peach, Whisper White, Fruit Stand DSP
Accessories: Decorative Dots embossing folder, 3/8" ruched Peekaboo Peach  ribbon; rhinestones.
