Happy Friday to you! It’s Fun Fold Friday and I’ve got a card full of goodness….triple goodness!
It looks like a regular card from the front….but open it up and it gives you triple the goodness!…..because it’s a Triple Fold Out card.
This card is a great way to use up some of your smaller bits of paper. I’ve made a bunch of cards using the Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper lately, so it was an easy choice to use up some of my smaller pieces I had leftover from previous projects. There are great variety of patterns on both sides so it is easy to mix and match the florals, with the stripes and big and small flowers.
Pair this beautiful paper with the Good Morning Magnolia Stamp Set and coordinating Magnolia Memory Dies and you have a winning combination.
For the magnolia flower on the front, I used these pieces from the Magnolia Memory Dies. You’ll need to cut two of the each of the outline petals and one of the more solid piece, plus two leaves and a flower center.
I used a sponge dauber and Petal Pink Ink to lightly brush on a little color to my magnolia flower. I started in the middle of the petals and then just brushed outward.
Before putting the flower pieces together use your bone folder to give the ends of the petals a little curl. Adhere the flower layers together with a small bit of Liquid Multipurpose Glue just in the center. Start with the biggest petals and alternate the direction of the petals so you have a full flower when you’re finished.
That little fuzzy center? Those are one of the fun new embellishments called Perennial Essence Floral Centers. Makes it almost seem like a real flower, doesn’t it?
This card is also a little different because it doesn’t open like a normal card. So you might be wondering where you would write your own note….this space on the inside doesn’t really leave you much room.
Instead you just flip the card over….and write on the back!
If you’d like to make this card, this is what you’ll need:
- Good Morning Magnolia Stamp Set
- Magnolia Memories Dies
- Basket Weave 3D Embossing Folder
- Card Base: Mossy Meadow Cardstock cut 5 1/2” x 4 1/4”, plus cut a square for the front – 2 5/8” x 2 5/8”.
- 1st Layer: Petal Pink Cardstock – Embossed using the Basket Weave 3D Embossing Folder. Plus cut a square piece for the front – 2 1/8” x 2 1/8”.
- 2nd Layer – Triple Fold Out Piece – Mossy Meadow Cardstock – Cut 11” x 4 1/4”, Score on the long side at 1 1/2”, 3”, 5 1/2” and 8”. Fold on the score lines like an accordion.
- Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper – Cut the following: one piece 4” x 1 1/4” (front), one piece 4” x 1 1/4” (Green striped), one piece 4” x 2 1/4” (pink striped) and one piece 4” x 2 3/4” (biggest piece)
- Whisper White Cardstock – Cut 4” x 2 1/4” (for sentiment) and one piece cut 5 1/4” x 4” (for back of card), plus scraps for the Magnolia Flower.
- Mossy Meadow Cardstock – Cut 2 5/8” x 2 5/8”, plus scraps for the two flower leaves.
- Daffodil Delight Cardstock – scrap for flower center
- Perennial Essence Floral Centers (or use a rhinestone/small jewel embellishment)
- Ink: Petal Pink, Memento Tuxedo Black and Mossy Meadow
- Stamping Blends: Petal Pink Light and Mossy Meadow Light
- SNAIL adhesive and Liquid Multipurpose Glue
If you’d like to decorate your envelope flap, you’ll need a piece of matching Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper cut 6” x 2 1/2”. Adhere with Liquid Multipurpose glue (a very thin line all around the outside) matching the edge of the Designer Series Paper with where the envelope flap folds. Use Paper Snips to cut off the excess paper.
I hope you’ll try this card. It might look like a lot, but if you cut all the pieces first and then put them together, it’s really fairly quick and easy!
I’d love to see what you create!
Happy Stamping!
