Two Cards with One Quick and Easy Fun Fold

7/1/2020

Last night for Mystery Stamping on the On Y Go! Stamping Facebook Group, we created this quick and easy fun fold card. Well, actually, we created two cards. Because this fun fold creates two cards! So, on y go! Let's get stamping.

Cutting Dimensions:
Cardstock:

1 full sheet 8 ½” x 11”
2 pieces (layer) - 2 ¼” x 3 ¼”

Whisper White or Vanilla cardstock:

2 pieces (stamped image) - 2” x 3”

Patterned paper:

2 pieces - 4” x 5 ¼”

Instructions:
Score your piece of 8 1/2" x 11" cardstock at 5 1/2" on the 11" side and 4 1/4" on the 8 1/2" side. (This is where you would normally cut your cardstock for card bases or fronts.)

Cut diagonally from one corner of your cardstock to the opposite corner. If your cardstock won't fit diagonally in your paper trimmer, use a ruler and pencil or bone folder to mark the line and cut it with scissors.

You now have two card bases. Fold the flaps in on each card base. Lay your two card bases in front of you.

Lay your two pieces of patterned paper in front of you with the designs you want to show facing up. Cut these pieces diagonally as well. Go in the same direction as your card bases.

Adhere a triangle of Designer Series Paper to each of the triangular flaps on your card bases.

Stamp an image or greeting on your Whisper White or Vanilla cardstock. Mount it on a layer of colored cardstock and adhere it to the front of your card. Be careful to only adhere it to one flap or your card won't open!
