Hi Everyone,
Today's Fun Fold Friday is one that I have made a couple of times before but I really like it for showing off pretty designer series papers. This time I have used the Wonderful World bundle which is one of the FREE Sale-a-Bration offerings and teamed it with a sentiment from Wildflower Path.
Materials
1 piece of orchid oasis card stock 5 7/8" x 10", 1 piece 2" x 4 1/4"1 piece of dsp 2 7/8" x 5 3/4", 1 piece 1 1/4" x 5 3/4", 1 piece 2 1/4" x 5 3/4", 6 pieces 1 3/8" x 1 1/8"
1 piece of basic white 2 1/4" x 5 3/4", 1 piece 2 1/4" x 4 1/8"
Wonderful World stamp set
Orchid Oasis ink
Wildflower Path stamp set
Trimmer
Simply Scored
Paper snips
Multipurpose adhesive
Dimensionals
Bone folder
Iridescent rhinestones
Brushed Brass Butterflies
Instructions
On the long side, score the largest piece of card stock at 3", 4 1/2", 6" and 7 1/2".
Fold on the 6" score only and put the fold to the top of the scoreboard with the 7 1/2" score visible on the top and make pencil marks at: 3/4", 2", 2 1/2", 3 3/4", 4 1/4" and 5 1/2".
Fold on the 7 1/2" score and put the shorter end underneath so you can see the pencil marks that you made along the 6" score line. Mark with a pencil at: 1/2", 1 3/4", 2 1/4", 3 1/2", 4" and 5 1/4".
Open out and join the pencil marks together with a ruler, this will make the marks for you to cut to make the blocks.
Fold again on the 6" scoreline and cut up the pencil marks to the 7 1/2" score.
Flip over and fold and burnish from the 3" (mountain), 4 1/2" (valley), 6" (mountain). With the block sections, the larger ones need to pop out and the thinner ones to go back, this forms like a square section in the card (see picture).
Now decorate all the different sections, lay down the dsp making sure that you leave a small border all the way around each piece.
Stamp the flower and the sentiment on the basic white mat and then add this to the orchid oasis piece.
Add to the card front using dimensionals.
Add the remaining basic white section to the back of the card to write your message.
I hope that you give this a try, its much easier than it looks.
