STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS

  • Fold your card base and pop out layer. .

  • Adhere the inside DSP on the right of the base.

  • Adhere the pop up fold cardstock on the left bottom of the card base. Trace a pencil line to know where to apply your adhesive.

  • Adhere a narrow strip of DSP to the left side, over the seam of the pop out layer and the far left layer.

  • Stamp your three pieces (sorry I said two in the video) with your greetings : front, inside and base layers.

  • I stamped a peach on a sticky to make a mask and use it to stamp the leaves behind the peach.

  • Adhere the layers and make sure the folded pop out covers the inside greeting.

  • Decorate your envelope

A FEW TIPS WHILE YOU MAKE THIS CARD…

Make sure you adhere your pop out layer before sticking the DSP on the two narrower folds.

 

I love how coordinated the back of the DSP is with the front, in this particular collection. It makes it easier to coordinate the colours of your cardstock and inks. I used a mask of the peach to stamp the leaves behind the peach image. I also used both ink colours to stamp my greeting.

You can replace some of the DSP with white cardstock to allow more people to sign the card, if it is coming from a group or family. The possibilities with this fancy fold are endless.
