Triangle Flap Fun Fold

I love this fun fold! I learned about it from a fellow Demo in the UK. I just went to my Pinterest boards to find her name and GASP!! My entire board of Fun Fold Cards is gone!!!!! I had so many lovely ideas on it:( I must have accidentally deleted it somehow, but I just can't figure that out. 



All measurements in inches.

Card Base : Garden Green 4 1/4 x 8 1/4

Corner Piece: Garden Green 3 x 3

Layer: Old Olive 2-3/4 x 2-3/4

Layer: Pretty Peacock 3 x 3

Inside: Whisper White 4 x 2-1/2

Greeting: Whisper White 2 x 2

Stamped Leaves: Whisper White scraps

Gold Leaves: Forever Gold Laser-cut Specialty Paper

DSP Panel: 1 x 4

Stamp Set: Forever Fern

Dies: Forever Flourishing

Inks: Pretty Peacock, Old Olive, Garden Green

Embossing Folder: Greenery

Ribbon: Forever Greenery Trim

  1. On the long side of the Garden Green card base, score the card stock at 5-3/4 and fold and burnish.

  2. Cut the 3 x 3 piece of Garden Green card stock in half diagonally and emboss.  Then add a mini dimensional at each of the three points and adhere to the top right hand corner of the card base.

  3. Adhere the strip of designer series paper to the left hand front flap of the card.

  4. Stamp some leaves on the scraps of whisper white and die cut.

  5. Stamp the sentiment on the 2 x 2 piece of Whisper White.

  6. Add the 4 x 2-1/2 Whisper White layer to the inside of the card making sure that it is more over to the left hand side of the card, closer to the fold so it will slide under the corner piece.

  7. Adhere the 3 x 3 piece of Pretty Peacock to the left hand flap so that it hides the inside layer where you will write your message, remember to only add glue to the half on the card base flap.

  8. Then add the 2-3/4 x 2-3/4 piece of Old Olive to the center of the Pretty Peacock square. 

  9. Add mini dimensionals to each corner of the white sentiment square and add that to the center of the Old Olive layer

  10. Put a small amount of glue on the back of the leaf cut outs and tuck in around the sentiment as you like.
