How To Make A Triple Fold Card – Technique Tuesday

Nov 9, 2021 | Blog Hop, Christmas, Step by step

Welcome to the Crafty Collaborations blog hop. I am part of an amazing group of demonstrators from all around the world. We love showcasing the wonderful products which can found in our suite of catalogues. This month we are looking at different ways of using your Designer Series Papers. There are quite a few different techniques which I am sure you will discover today. I chose to create a fun Triple Fold Card.

Peaceful Deer

The Peaceful Deer Bundle is just amazing! its perfect for making lots of different Christmas cards. Something most of us are trying to do right now. The best bit is there a coordinating punch in the bundle which you can use on two of the images. Super quick card making right this way……..

Peaceful Place

This has to be on of my favourite Christmas papers EVER!

Subtle, sophisticated and shiny. I love it!

Just Basic Black, Basic Gray & Basic White with some silver foil highlights. Absolutely Gorgeous.

Triple Fold Card

I made this card on my Facebook Live yesterday and I have to confess I designed the whole card in order to avoid cutting into the wonderful papers! However this is a great technique for showcasing any of our beautiful patterned papers that are just too good to hide!

Talking of which have you seen the Silver Foil speciality pack in the Jul – Dec Mini Catalogue?

It has a brushed metal texture and comes in three different shades. I have used the darkest shade for this card & it adds such a wow when contrasting with the light silver foil elements on the DSP.

The deer as been coloured with just one set of blends and a colour lifter, and is just so easy to do

The front of the card opens up to reveal this wonderful triple fold of this beautiful snowy scene.

I can just imagine the little deer dancing its way through that lovely snowy forest.

You can see the Facebook live recording of how I made this card here
