Fun Fancy Fold

I've never watched Soap Operas like As the World Turns.. but I do follow blog operas like As the Ink Dries!! Isn't that an adorable name for a blog!

Sharon Burkert shares a great tutorial here on a fancy fold card....
.

Cut a piece of Summer Starfruit card stock 4-1/4" x 11" and score it at 5-1/2".  Mark the center of the front of the card with a pencil.   Using the Butterfly Collection Jumbo Wheel roll over the front of the card in Summer Starfruit ink

Line up the lower right hand corner and the upper left hand corner of the card front on the cutting track of the Stampin' Trimmer.  Place the blade on the pencil mark you made and make a cut from the center of the card to the lower right hand corner of the card front.

Mark the center of the inside of the card with a pencil.  Line up the upper right hand corner and the lower left hand of the inside of the card on the cuttring track.  Place the blade on the pencil mark and cut from the center up to the upper right hand corner of the inside of the card.

This is how the card fits together.  

The lower right of the inside of the card 

is now part of the front of the card.

Cut a banner using the Banner Framelits Die and emboss it using the Perfect Polka Dot embossing folder.  Cut a butterfly using the Beautiful Wings Embosslit and the Beautiful Butterflies Bigz die.  Punch out one butterfly using the Elegant Butterfly punch and one using the Bitty Butterfly punch.

Cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Elegant Eggplant card stock.  Cut it in half diagonally.  Cut  a 3-3/4" x 5" piece of Very Vanilla card stock and cut it half diagonally.  Layer these two piece and then attach it to inside of the card in the lower right hand side.

Don't be intimidated...

 it sounds harder than it really is...

just try it!
