Large Scallop Accordion Fold

This card is really unique, in that the card base is large, scallop rectangles from the Scalloped Christmas Cheer Dies! The largest of these 4 rectangles, is actually a little too large for a standard US card base, so Patty Bennett designed it into a card, with an accordion fold in the center! The rest is DSP from the Sunshine Fields DSP.

Measurements:

Sunflower Fields DSP (N): 2 pcs @ 3 3/8" x 4 1/2" (Pecan Pie dots, white print - largest), 3 1/2" x 4 1/2" (Cajun Craze plaid - medium), 2 1/2" x 3 1/2" (Golden Glow Floral - small)
