This year, I began a series of live videos on my Facebook page featuring fun fold cards. I have enjoyed sharing these with you and showing you how I create these designs.
This past week, I shared a tutorial featuring this set of triangle folds. I taught you how to used the new card stencils and flower thin cuts on the design and shared how to use stickers for your sentiments.
If you missed last week’s live video, here is the unedited version for you to enjoy.
Triangle fold cards are really easy to make. You simply cut an 8.5″ x 11″ piece of cardstock in half at the diagonal, then fold the flaps to create a standard A2 size card base.
When you decorate the card front, you need to make sure that you don’t adhere anything across that diagonal opening. On each of my cards, I cut two triangles from the Pumpkin Spice collection to decorate the front panels.
After adding the paper to the card base, I added some stamped stitching with the Embordered Borders stamp set. I really enjoy adding stitching onto my projects and this new stamp set allows me to do that without having to drag out my sewing machine every time.
The layered images on the card were placed onto some French Vanilla cardstock that I stenciled with a plaid design. I used our new Card Front Stencils and Distress Oxide Inks to create this, and I love how it turned out.
The flowers were cut from Mix-In papers using the new Layered Flower thin cuts. In the center, I placed a pile of beads and adhered them in place with liquid glass.
For the sentiment, I grabbed a few stickers from the Pumpkin Spice collection, added a wooden leaf, and called the card complete.
Both of these fun fold cards were simple to create and can be altered for any occasion. Just change to pattern paper colors and the flower design, and you have a whole new card! I hope you give this a try.
I hope this inspired you to try something new. If you have any questions about this project or the supplies listed above, feel free to leave me a comment.
