Everyone loves fun folds; they can really dress up a handmade card. This is one of my favorite fun folds, it is easy to put together and looks like it took lots of time to create! This fold is called a Diagonal Joy Fold.
Supplies:
Paper Trimmer
Real Red c/s
Shaded Spruce c/s
Boughs of Holly DSP
Basic White c/s
Adhesive
Leaves of Holly Bundle
Small and Big Boss
Real Red Ink
Bone folder
Wintry 3D Boughs – Pine/ Tree folder
Dimensionals
Wink of Stella
Measurements:
Real Red – 5 ½” x 8 ½” scored at 4 ½” and 3” x 8” score at 4”
Shaded Spruce – 4” x 5 ¼” (cut 2); 2-3/4″ x 3-3/4″ (x2); scrap pieces
Boughs of Holly DSP – 3 ¾” x 5” (cut 2)
Basic White - 2-5/8″ x 3-5/8″ (x2); scrap pieces
Let’s get started:
· Cut the Real Red card base diagonally from the top left by the SCORE line to the lower right. Crease well with a bone folder
· Cut the Shaded Spruce diagonally from the top left to the bottom right
· Cut the DSP diagonally from the top left to the bottom right
· Adhere all the diagonal pieces to the real red card base
· Adhere the Shaded Spruce to the inside of the card, DSP on top of the Shaded Spruce
· This is what it should look like when you have completed the above
Small card
· Fold 3 x 8 in half and crease well with your bone folder
· Adhere the Shaded Spruce to the top and inside the small card
· Put basic white in the embossing folder and run it through the Big Boss
· Adhere to the front of the card
· Cut 2 Shaded Spruce small, outlined leaves (The small boss works well)
· Stamp the berries in Real Red on a piece of basic white scrap paper and cut it out with the die cut and small boss
· On the 2nd piece of 2 5/8 x 3 5/8 of basic white, stamp your sentiment; adhere it to the inside of card.
· Add a 3/8” piece of DSP to the bottom of the basic white
· Adhere the leaves to the front of the card
· Add Dimensionals to the berries and attach them to the top of the leaves
· Attach the small card to the inside base card. (Make sure it is centered)
