Brushed with Beauty Fun Fold Card

I made today’s fun fold card using the Brushed With Beauty Designer Series Paper from the Brushed with Beauty Suite of products.

The following photos shows the layout of the larger square on the inside of the card.

Cutting instructions:

• Calypso Coral
  • Card Base: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ scored at 2 1/8″ and 4 1/4″
  • Squares: 2″ x 2″ (cut 2), 2 1/4″ x 2 1/4″
  • Mechanism: 3″ x 2 1/2″, score at 3/4″, 1 1/2″, 2 1/4″
  • Sentiment: scrap
• Very Vanilla
  • Panels: 2″ x 5 3/8″ (cut 2)
  • Inside: 4 1/8″ x 5 3/8″
  • Squares: 1 7/8″ x 1 7/8″ (cut 2), 2 1/8″ x 2 1/8″
• DSP
  • Petal Pink Pattern Panels: 1 7/8″ x 5 1/4″ (cut 2),
  • Petal Pink Pattern for inside: 4″ x 5 14″
  • Floral Pattern Squares: 1 3/4″ x 1 3/4″ (cut 2), 2″ x 2″

Adhere the Petal Pink DSP panels to the Very Vanilla panels. Then adhere them to the card base. Prepare the squares with the Calypso Coral card stock, Very Vanilla card stock and floral pattern DSP.

Apply adhesive to the left side of one of the 2″ squares and line up one corner to the 2 1/8″ fold and adhere. Add the second 2″ square to the bottom of the fold.

Fold and crease the Calypso Coral mechanism. Fold in the two sides of the mechanism and apply adhesive to the two sides that meet in the centre. Open up the card and adhere on the 4 1/4″ fold line of the card. Press down and ensure that it is fully adhered to the card. Take the larger square and dry fit it to the mechanism with the left point of the square just touching the right side of the card. Apply just a bit of adhesive to the tip of the square that will attach to the mechanism and press down to secure.

I used a sentiment from the Banner Sayings stamp set and stamped it on the scrap of Calypso Coral with Calypso Coral classic ink, Next, die cut it with the small label die from the Words of Beauty dies. Add some Mini Dimensionals to the back of the sentiment and position it between the two squares on the front panel. Complete the card with a few of the Pearls of Beauty embellishments.
