Tri-Fold Hello

Happy Monday, everyone! It’s Kelly here to kick off the week with a sparkly hello card!

I don’t stray from a standard size card very often, but our monthly technique of Fun Folds encouraged me to try something new with a tri-fold design. And I have to admit it was so much fun playing with this layout — I love that the card is decorated inside and out!

So here’s a look at the front panel with the gold embossed Tiny Ink Spots background and the speech bubble window peeking though to the next panel.

And then you open it up to reveal this…

Finally, the middle panel is stamped with a message from the Big Hugs clear stamp set and embellished with gold sequins, which are great for the insides of cards since they are so flat!

And just because I love that gold embossing so much, here’s a closeup shot of the front of the card.

Have you tried out any fun folds lately? You have until 11:59pm PST on Thursday to get your entries uploaded to the Hero Arts Flickr Group for your chance to win a Hero Arts shopping spree!

Have a great day!

   Ango-
   The base of my card was created using a piece of 5.5″x11″ cardstock. I cut a decorative border on one edge, which left me with a width of about 10.75″. So I just lined this piece up on my scoring board and divided it into three equal sections to create my folds.
   Hope that helps!
   Kelly
