SHOW AND TELL with MICHELLE: What's Up Wednesday ~ Triple Fold Card

Welcome to What's Up Wednesday! This week I have a Fun Fold Card to share with you. I'm not sure if there is an official name for this card so I am calling it a Triple Fold Card.

This is a great time to use a pattern from the Beautiful Gallery DSP Pack. Pick your pattern and cut the 6" square piece in half vertically. Now you have a 3: by 6: piece. Cut this piece into two 3" squares. Set this aside. One more DSP piece is needed for the bottom panel. This piece is 4.25" X 2.75" and can be from the leftover piece of DSP or a different piece that goes with your colors/theme.

Cardstock cuts: Base = 4/25" x 11", Mats (2) 3.25" square, White: 3.25" x 2".

Scoring: Score the card base placing it the long way on your device. Move the left edge to 2.5" and score. Move the left edge to 3.75" and score. Move the edge to 6.75" and core. Finally, move the edge to 8.25" and score. Accordion fold the score lines so the card folds onto itself.

Stamp a sentiment to the DS

P that will be used on the top of the card front and a sentiment on the white CS for the "inside" of the card. Glue the DSP squares to the mats. Glue the smaller DSP piece onto the bottom section of the card base lining it up just below the fold. Glue the White CS to the bottom of the card lining it up just below the fold.

To add the matted DSP pieces you need to be careful of where you place the adhesive. For. the middle matted piece put your glue on the top, half way down the sides and across the middle. Close the card so the middle section is showing and the white CS is peeking out from under the fold. Now you can line up the middle piece bottom with the bottom edge of the white sentiment layer below. Rub the middle piece to secure the glue to the base.

Close the card all the way and place the top matted DSP onto the top section about a .25" from the top and lining up the sides to the matted piece in the middle.

Add your embellishments.
