Instructions

Score the whisper white card on the long side at 4 3/8" and fold and burnish.

Run the 1 1/2" white and 1 3/4" wide daffodil delight strips of card stock through the die cutting machine using the embossing folder, then score the daffodil delight one at 1/2" on the long side to form a tab.

Adhere the daffodil delight mat and the dsp layer to the front of the card. With the opening edge of the card pushed right into the classic label punch, make sure its centralised from the top and the bottom, punch through all three layers, this gives the opening to feed the closing flap through.

Adhere the embossed white strip to the remaining daffodil delight strip and then fold the daffodil embossed layer around it so that it is level with the punched opening on the card front. Make a little mark on the side of the embossed card layer and then glue the flap at this point, wrapping the tab to the back of the strip. Then adhere the whole lot to the inside right hand side of the inside of the card so that it shows alongside the card front when it is closed. Feed the end of the flap through the punched out hole so that it lies inside the card.

Stamp a sentiment on the inside of the card and also one on a scrap of whisper white in Real Red and then using the 2" circle punch, punch out the one for the front of the card. Punch out a starburst from the scrap of real red and glue them both together.

With the flap through the hole in the front of the card, add the circle sentiment in position using dimensionals so that it covers the hole you have punched in the card.

Another quick and simple fun fold card, I hope that you like it.
