Double Card Fold

This is a beautifully, interesting card fold, that has no name, so I call it a Double Card fold, as it is actually 2 cards, cut lengthwise, that criss-cross for the base! Each layer has an interesting die cut feature.  Come learn how to make this in class this week!



Measurements:   

  • THICK Basic White: 4 1/4" x 11" (base)
  • Basic White: 3 3/4" x 5" (inside)
  • Magenta Madness: 4" x 10 1/2"
  • Gold Foil: 4 1/4" x 4 1/2"
  • Expressions in Ink DSP (N): 4" x 5 1/4" (front), 3 3/4" x 5" inside, strip
To Make This Card:

  • Fold Thick Basic White in half.  Attach front DSP to card around outside edges only.
  • Cut desired die from front, through both layers. Be sure to lay die, so that it is not too close to the cut edge. This may take more than one pass. Set this cut die aside to be used later on card inside.
  • Now, cut focal die from Gold Foil. Set aside, too.
  • Fold Magenta base in half. Criss cross as shown, making one LONG card.
  • Fold up Magenta card.  Attach inside DSP .  Close top of card.  Adhere Gold die through opening, and to base below.  I'd use Green Glue, or cut from an adhesive sheet!
  • Now open Magenta flap, and fold down front of card.  Attach this DSP die cut directly to Magneta card base.
  • Add trimmed White piece to other side of Magenta.  Stamp sentiment and add scrap of DSP. Flip, flap this to finished position.
  • Finish with Gold Gilded Gems
