Fun Fold Friday #42 - Joy Fold Card Get Well Card

Hi Everyone,

Welcome to my Fun Fold Friday series and this week I have made one of my favourites, a Joy Fold card (sometimes called a flip flap card) using the lovely Flowers for Every Season designer series paper. There is a video tutorial over on my YouTube channel, please click the link below:

Materials

1 piece of just jade card stock 4 1/4" x 9 3/8", 1 piece 3 1/4" x 8 1/2", 2 1/4" circle

1 piece of whisper white card stock 3" x 4" and 2" circle

1 piece of dsp (Flowers for every season) 4" x 6", 2 pieces 4" x 2 7/8", 2 pieces 4" x 2"

Just card ink

Many Mates stamp set

2" circle punch

2 1/4" circle punch

Trimmer

Simply scored

Bone folder

Multipurpose adhesive

Dimensionals

Instructions

On the long side, score the larger piece of card stock at 6 1/4" and the smaller one at 4 1/4", fold and burnish to make the two card pieces.

Adhere the largest piece of dsp to the inside of the largest piece and the two 4" x 2 7/8" to either side of the folded section.

Adhere the whisper white and the remaining two dsp pieces to the smaller card, remember that this opens out in the opposite direction to the larger one.

Add glue to the back of the smaller card and fix it so that it lies centrally on the inside of the larger one and now one flips over the other flap (see picture).

Stamp a sentiment on the 2" circle and fix to the larger circle, add this to the card front with a dimensionals on the left hand side so that the flap of the smaller card tucks under it to keep it closed. Stamp on the inside whisper white layer if required.

There you are a quick and easy joy fold card, here is a sample that I made using the Feels Like Frost designer series paper to make a Christmas card.
