Make the most of your card stock & DSP with this Timeless Plaid fun fold card
Today I'm sharing one more easy fun fold card featuring the Timeless Plaid 6" Designer Series Paper.
I love this card layout because it makes great use of both your card stock and designer paper. My colors include Basic Beige with Pretty Peacock. The greeting and stitched edge die-cut are from the Mixed Labels bundle seen here.
The card base is 11" X 4 1/4"; scored at 5 1/2". Trim off one end at 3 1/4" and cut it into a square. Next add a 3" square of DSP to that. You'll add that as the layer over the left side of the card (after adding a 2" X 4" piece of DSP). So simple!
I shared 3 fun fold cards on last week's video. If you like fun fold cards I hope you'll access the free project sheetsfor them all here.
Double Diagonal card fold with free project sheet & video tutorial
Have you ever made a double diagonal card fold before? They're a little bit addictive and so easy. This layout is also a great way to combine coordinating designer papers & use up your stash!
Here I used the new Timeless Plaid 6 X 6" DSP along with the With You in Mind stamp set. I love the nice big greetings.
When making this card you start out with a base 11" X 4 1/4" scored at 5 1/2". Then trim off the outer diagonal piece from the score line down to the corner. This is then flipped and adhered to the attached card base. Watch the video here or below to see how to do it.
I used the 'To the Point' punch along with the 2 3/8" circle punch here. They work beautifully together.
Below is the video for this card and another neat curtain fold. I hope you watch it to see the tips on assembly. And subscribe to my YouTube Channel too!
I chose a few new products from the Spring catalog including the wonderful With You in Mind stamp set & Timeless Plaid designer series paper. The colors include Lost Lagoon with Pebbled Path & White.
If you haven't made a curtain fold yet they're quite easy if you get the scoring correct. I got these measurements from my friend Susie Wood. It's a 6" X 3" piece of DSP scored at 2 3/4", 3 1/4", 4 1/4" & 4 3/4". I then made a mark on the far right down 1" and cut off the bottom right corner from the first score-line on the bottom to the upper right.
I made a few of these and decided to try stamping the Lost Lagoon layer instead of texturing it with the Plaid 3D embossing folder (right card). Which do you prefer?
The greetings are stamped on a die-cut from the Greetings of the Season dies seen here. It's a good time to order those large items like dies because you can earn free products during Sale-a-Bration.
I created a free project sheet for this card. I recommend saving my project sheets in a folder or binder for easy card layout ideas. *Click on the following link to download or print it. Download With you in Mind Curtain fold
The inside greeting is from the Mixed Labels stamp set.
