Today I have a fun fold card that I made using the Simply Scored Scoring Tool and the Diagonal Plate. It looks difficult to make but it really isn’t. Just like the card I posted the other day, it’s the perfect size to slip a gift card into. It stays shut on its own but I’ve used a belly band so that a sentiment is easy to add to the front. But as you can see in the picture below, it can also be left plain. Another great thing about this card – it fits perfectly inside one of our medium envelopes!
I used the bright and vibrant Bohemian Designer Series Paper (DSP). The sentiment is from the stamp set Tin of Cards. I love the fonts in this set and that the words are nice and bold. The butterflies on the inside of the card are from Garden in Bloom. This is a 2 Step Stampin’ set which means that you stamp a base image and then position and stamp another one over it. I stamped the outline of each butterfly in Blackberry Bliss and the inside with Rich Razzleberry.
I had hoped to make my own video showing this fun technique but yesterday when I went to film, my camera battery died and I couldn’t find the charger. I had to place a quick order on Amazon and I should have a new charger any day now. There is a great tutorial over on Splitcoaststampers and you can view it HERE.
Thanks so much for stopping by! Enjoy your weekend!

Hi Tracy,
I love this card! What a great way to showcase the DSP. Do you have a tutorial on how you did this? I’d love to learn it. Thanks so much for sharing
