IT IS A FINE DAY FOR A FUN FOLD CARD THIS FRIDAY

Fun Fold Friday is one of my favourite days of the week.

This week I have an origami inspired card. I found a sample of a simple miura fold card made by Lisa Brown back in 2020 – thanks Lisa.

This is the last project using my own ‘bundle’ for the week. The card features three panels with triangular folds. There is a 1″ wide belly band that holds the card in place.

I used the large stitched square die, from the Stylish Shapes Dies, to cut out the greeting so that I could add it to belly band.

I used a piece of 11-1/4″x 4-1/4″” Pool Party cardsock. Along the longer side, I scored it at 3-3/4″ and 7-1/2″.

For the triangular score lines, I measured in 1-7/8″ along the score lines and added a pencil mark (from the top on the left hand side and from the bottom on the right hand side). Then I scored from those pencil marks to the top and bottom edges. Then after some burnishing the triangles fold away perfectly.

I made a second card base so that I could create some templates in order to accurately cut the DSP panels.

Then I cut some of the ‘fan’ images from the DSP using one of the stitched circle dies in the Stylish Shapes Dies and added them to the card.

I really enjoyed making this card. Now’ it’s time to find some more origami inspiration for future projects.

Tomorrow is Saturday and time to introduce the products I will be featuring for the week. Make sure you pop by to check out what I have chosen.

Until then, happy stamping.
