SU Festival of Trees - Folds

This card was made with the same supplies as this card kit and the layout of this card.

The designer paper is Stampin Up Be of Good Cheer.  The card is Cherry Cobbler.  The card front is scored at the half way point and folded back to the left.  A piece of DSP is applied to the flap.  The square accent is done with the Festival of Trees stamp set with the polka dot tree and the first half of the greeting on the front and the rest on the inside.  The sentiments are done on layers are Very Vanilla. 

Gift Card Holders - Trifold

I made some Gift Card Holders for my sale tomorrow.  It's based on the design of this one.  It's a tri-fold made with 5.x5 x12 inch double sided card stock.  They are held closed with ribbon.  They have an envelope to hold the card or coupons or cash.

HB Trifold

I made another tri-fold card for a niece who is having a birthday this week.

I chose a deep warm green card.  I scored at 4.25 inches and then flipped it over then just over 3.5 so the center panel is just shy of the front.  Stampin Up Window Frame in the same as card with a square of pink to hilight the flowers.  I printed the SU greeting from Elementary Elegance printed in Regal Rose on Very Vanilla card stock.  Punched with the 1.75" circle punch.  I added a pink ribbon to keep the card closed.

I tucked a bit of something for her to contribute to her thrifty shopping.

Gift Card Holder - DSP 12 inches

I'm working on tri-fold Gift Card Holders.  I started with 12 x 5.5 inch piece of double sided card stock.  I scored at 4.25" then flipped it and scored just shy of 3.5".  This allows the front to be just a bit wider than the second panel.  I chose a pretty paper and added a square of teal, a Stampin Up Window Frame diecut in purple and a greeting from Stampin Up Just Thinking set.  I chose a ribbon that pulled another color from the paper and added the ribbon to match.  The ribbon holds the card closed.  I placed a quarter sheet insert on the center panel for the personal message.  I then added a white envelope on the last smaller panel to hold the gift card.  The variations of this card is limitless!!

Card Club - Jan - Wedding Hearts Trifold

I thought I would change it up a bit for card club and make a wedding tri-fold card. I cut a piece of ivory card stock 2" at the short end and 5.5" at the tall end and 11" long.  I then scored it at 4" from the tall end and 3.5" from the short end. Cutting all the pieces for this card proved quite time consuming.  I wanted the hearts to be on the front flap and being that the pattern was directional the back piece could only be cut one way.  I printed the greeting on coordinating 24 lb bond paper and trimmed that piece as well.  The inside flap has an identical piece flipped which provides an insert for the giver to write a bit of a sentiment.




I made some with cards with blue heart paper then I made some with double sided card stock with pink being one side.  I folded it opposite of this one.  I punched a heart and a Stampin Up Modern Label punchie with a Word Window punchie greeting.  I chose Congratulations or Happy Heart Day which would work for Valentines or anniversary or wedding.

Card - Washi Tape Tri-fold

Create a tri-fold card which fit well in an A2 envelope.  I found a template on-line but it was too tall so I adjusted mine to work better for me.  I cut the card stock starting at 2" at the short end and 5.5" at the tall end. Then I scored at 4" from the tall end and 3.5" from the short end.  I wanted to leave the tall edge open in case I used a border punch on it.  I have not punched in this case. I bought this Washi Tape in December.  I applied it to the tall right hand edge, the slanted edge which required trimming to a slight bit inside the fold and the short left hand edge.   I stamped greeting in black with a Stampin Up stamp. I added 3 Prima handmade paper flowers in small yellow, bit larger deep yellow then a large pink one all held in place by a tiny white brad.

I have sent them off for my monthly card exchange.
