For this week’s video, I wanted to show you how easy it is to make a Triple Flap Card. I have two examples to show you. The card works best if you have a stamp set that has multiple images to use, or sets that coordinate well together. If you missed the live presentation, you can watch the replay here.
The front of this fun-fold card closes to measure 5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″, so it will fit in the standard envelope. When it is open, the three flaps are clearly seen.
Here is the card I demonstrated in the video using the Charming Duck Pond bundle and coordinating DSP.
When opened, it looks like this, showing off the DSP and cute duck & frog images.
The card is very similar to a z-fold card, basically a double z-fold. It will look like this from the top view, and you can see the double z-fold.
Here are the basic directions for making the Triple Flap card. Refer to the video to refresh your memory of how to fold the card base and attach the layers. I am giving the basic directions here for you to design your own card. My samples are just suggestions to show you how the card is made, but you are always free to CASE (Copy And Share Everything) the design!
- To make this card, you need a piece of cardstock that measures 10 1/2″ x 4 1/4″ for the card base. Score this piece at 2 1/2″ and 3 3/4″ from each side.
- For the first layer panels, cut two pieces of coordinating cardstock at 4 1/8″ x 4 1/8″ and one piece at 4 1/8″ x 2 3/8″.
- The second layer for the panels will be cut slightly smaller. Choose coordinating Designer Series Paper, cut two pieces at 4″ x 4″ and one piece at 4″ x 2 1/4″
- Embellish each layer as desired with whichever stamp set you are using.
