The Blackberry Beauty suite inspired me to try the Corner Fold Card. Looks pretty fancy but is quite easy to do once you know how. Blackberry Bliss Cardstock makes up the base of my card, with a mat of Very Vanilla for the message. I placed the patterned Designer Series Paper on the front of my card before I made any cuts, and voila!, look at the surprise inside!
Corner Fold Card Measurements:
Blackberry Bliss cardstock base, 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ scored parallel to the short side at 4-1/4″
Very Vanilla cardstock, 5-1/4″ x 4″, plus scrap for front focal point
Blackberry Beauty Designer Series Paper Pattern 1, 5-1/4″ x 4″
Blackberry Beauty Designer Series Paper Pattern 2, 2-7/8″ x 2-7/8″
Adhere DSP Pattern 1 to front of card with adhesive of your choice. Open card base and place on trimmer, lining up top of card at the 3″ mark on the left and with the scoreline parallel to the top of trimmer. Place blade at 3″ mark on the guide arm and slice up until 5/8″ from the top edge.
Turn card base upside down, line up left edge at 3″ mark. Place blade at 2-1/2″ mark on guide arm and slice down, stopping when 5/8″ from the bottom edge.
Remove the card from the trimmer and fold it in half. Gently pull the top right corner down towards the middle left side of the folded edge. Work the edges where the cardstock is still attached and crease. The edges of the square flipped portion should be parallel to the outside edges of the card base.
Stamp the bird image in Blackberry Bliss ink on a scrap of Very Vanilla, die cut with the Tasteful Labels die. Then run the brush end of the Light Polished Pink Stampin’ Blend along the edges of the die cut and pop up with dimensionals. Tie a length of gold Simply Elegant trim around the left edge of the card front. Stamp sentiment on Very Vanilla cardstock as shown so greeting is hidden by front flap and adhere inside of card.
