Fun Fold card

Hey kids!  Cindy back here on the SBC blog today.  I've got an easy, fun fold tutorial to share with you today. 

TiP:  Once you learn the basics of this fun fold it's easy to change up the sizes to fit your digi or die cut image.

 
Okay, let's learn how to create the card base.
 
Start with an A2 cardbase.

Trim off  1 3/4" from the front right side of the cardbase.

Digi image is 3 1/4"x 2 5/8"
brown layer is 3 3/8" x 2 3/4"
blue layer is 4 7/8" x 3 1/4"  -- Score the blue layer @ 3 7/8"  ( you should have a 1" flap--see above)

Adhere all the layers to the left of the flap.

Apply adhesive to the front of the flap and attach the flap to the inside of the cardbase 1 1/4" down from the top.  Line up the score line with the right edge of the cardbase.
Adhere cardstock to the inside of the cardbase to cover the flap.


Recipe:

Fiskars AdvantEdge Punch System Review

Good morning friends, Carolyn here with a review of a new tool I just recently purchased.  Received a newsletter from Scrapbook.com recently and checked it out.  But I did not purchase from Scrapbook.com as it's out of stock, so went to another source, and it arrived this past Saturday afternoon.

Supplies used: Fiskars AdvantEdge Punch System Fiskars' smaller interchangeable border punch cartridges - double scalloped edge   Fiskars AdvantEdge Punch System Here is a short write up about the system: The unique design of the AdvantEdge Punch System by Fiskars allows crafters to add perfectly aligned decorative borders and ribbons to any pr
