Hi everyone
I'm catching up
again and I recently made a block card with the fabulous Julie Loves Rainbow
Project Kit. I didn't write instructions or take multiple pics as it just came
together quickly and was made before I knew it.
It was such a lovely card I've made a second
one, this time using the Julie Loves Hearts and Flowers Project Kit and to
provide a tutorial.

I had so much fun making these cards and hope that you will try
this fancy fold if you haven’t done so already.
Materials:
12"x 12" cardstock (1 piece)
Julie Loves Hearts & Flowers OR Rainbows Project Kit
Scoreboard and Bone Folder
Strong Adhesive
Scissors/Trimmer
Ribbon/Twine
Stickles/Glossy Accents/Nuvo drops
Distress inks
To make:
Base card: 12" x 4.5 " Scored at 1.5". 3". 4.5". 6". 7.5". 9" & 10.5"
Rotate 90 degrees and score at 1.5" and 3"
|
Follow my grid to x out the
correct squares then cut and remove.
Cut to make a slit where I have highlighted orange. The single block marks the middle of your fold. |
Use
strong adhesive to layer your folds with slits over one another.
Cut
cardstock 4.5" x 1" and score at 0.5" to make a long fold.
Use
strong adhesive and attach on the inside of your card base and attach as in
photo's. You now have your base.
Select
papers of your choosing and for the squares you want to make the first layer
just shy of 1.5"squared as in pic and the next layer 1.25" squared.
For the
base of the card I used just under 1.5" and just under 4.5".
All
that is left is to decorate. The card folds completely flat for posting too.
Finished card showing all the lush detail and gorgeous papers of
Julie Loves Hearts and Flowers with cool purples and blues.
Some of the detail from the Julie Loves Rainbow
papers.
Here is my finished card
using Julie Loves Rainbows. This really is a happy paper pad, summery and
gorgeous!
I hope you like this fancy fold as much as I do and these
papers really are fabulous. You have the
vibrant rainbow colours in the Julie Loves Rainbows Collection and the cooler
blues and purples in the Julie Loves Hearts and Flowers Collection.
Have a fabulous weekend
and I'm slowly getting back into the swing of things here.
Lots of love
