Expressions in Ink Forever Blossoms Wedding Card - Fun Fold

 Hi Everyone,


Today I have made a Joy Fold Card using the fabulous Expressions in Ink designer series paper and the Forever Blossoms stamp set. Wedding season is here again and now that restrictions are being lifted, more of us can attend to share the couples big day. Let me show you how I made this pretty card.

Materials

1 piece of polished pink card stock 5 7/8" x 7", 1 piece 4 1/4" square
1 piece of gold foil 3 7/8" x 5 5/8", 1 piece 2 5/8" x 5 5/8", 1 piece 3" x 4"
1 piece of dsp 3 5/8" x 5 3/8", 1 piece 2 3/8" x 5 3/8", 1 piece 2 3/4" x 3 3/4"
1 piece of basic white 2 5/8" x 5 5/8", 1 piece 3" x 4"
Polished pink ink
Forever Blossoms stamp set
Scrap of polished pink ribbon for a bow
Trimmer
Simply scored
Bone folder
Multipurpose adhesive
Mini glue dots

Instructions

On the long side score the polished pink card at 2 7/8" and fold and burnish to make the main card base. On one side of the 4 1/4" square piece, score at 1" and fold and burnish to make the smaller card base.

Add adhesive to the back of the 1" strip on the smaller card and keeping the fold to the right hand edge of the card, adhere this to the inside making sure that it is equally spaced from top and bottom. This edge will be covered up by the inside layer pieces.

Stamp sentiments on the dsp layers for the inside and front of smaller card in polished pink. Add a sentiment to the basic white layer for the inside at the same time.

Add the dsp layers to the gold foil layers and then adhere to the inside and front flap of the main card and the front flap of the smaller one. Then adhere the remaining white mat layers.




Add a bow to the front and the card is complete. I do hope that you like it and will give it a try.
