Masculine Trifold Shutter Card

Making a trifold shutter card is a challenge on the Canada Die Cut Exchange group on Facebook. This was a great opportunity to showcase the Urban Design Specialty DSP, which is a wonderful masculine paper. The main colours in this paper:  Basic Gray, Basic Black, Delightful Dijon.  These colours were carried over into the card design.
To make this card I used the tutorial on Splitcoaststampers.

The base of this special fold card is Very Vanilla card stock, which was scored and cut using the directions in the video tutorial.
The DSP on each panel was matted with Basic Gray cardstock, and images from 2 different stamp sets were used to decorate the inside - Urban District and Nail It.

Supplies Used:
Stamps: Urban District, Nailed it
Inks: Black Memento, Basic Gray, SU Markers (Basic Gray, Smoky Slate, Delightful Dijon, Basic Black)
Papers: Very Vanilla, Basic Gray, Urban Design Specialty DSP
Accessories: Tools framelits, 1 1/4" circle punch, dimensionals, glue dots

DAD

I realize that Father's Day is not until June, but this card isn't necessarily about Father's Day.  It could be for any occasion for anyone who calls themselves "DAD"


I must apologize for the cropped off picture.  For some reason my editing program was acting up this morning.  Maybe it's the freezing drizzle!

The letters for "DAD" were stamped on Very Vanilla card stock with Delightful Dijon ink, cut out, and the edges sponged with the same ink.  Each letter was adhered, at an angle, to some Basic Black card stock.  This panel was adhered to the card front using dimensionals. Metallic enamel hearts were placed inside each letter "D".

The basic card stock is Basic Black, layered with Very Vanilla and then Urban District Specialty DSP.  The latter was cut into 2 pieces, with each of the different sides adhered side by side.

The sentiment was stamped with Delightful Dijon on the same coloured card stock, notched at one end before adhering it to the card near the lower "D"

Supplies Used:
Stamps: Urban District
Inks: Delightful Dijon
Papers: Basic Black, Very Vanilla, Urban District Specialty DSP
Accessories: Metallic enamel shapes, dimensionals
