Hi friends! As I mentioned in my last post, I’m into my second month guest designing for STAMPlorations Stencil Sunday and I’m in crafty heaven! Affiliate links are used in this post at no cost to you. I really appreciate your support! I have three projects to share for my second feature and I’m showcasing them individually so I can enjoy sharing them in some challenges. All three projects feature several ARTplorations Stencils along with other products available in the store, so I’m back with my second project which is a triple fold. If you know me, then you know that I’m a real sucker for fun folds! I’ve made several of these triple folds previously and they are so cool!
I created the triple fold card base from Neenah Classic Crest Solar White cardstock and then cut layering panels from gold foil cardstock. Using the ARTplorations Aperture Slimline Stencil, I randomly applied several colors of distress inks to a sheet of Neenah Classic Crest Solar White cardstock. I cut slightly smaller panels from the inked cardstock and adhered them to the gold foil panels and then to the card base. I applied a clear sticker from CRAFTplorations Free Spirit Clear Stickers to a scrap piece of white cardstock and cut it in a diamond orientation rather than square with a die from CUTplorations Pierced Curly Frames/Tags Nesting Dies, layered it on a slightly larger die cut shape from gold foil and adhered it to the card front. The final step was adding small purple enamel dots to the corners and creating a belly band to keep the card closed.
This is such a unique fold! Here are a couple shots of the card opening.
I cut the inside panel from Neenah Classic Crest Solar White cardstock and embellished it with leftover strips of the inked cardstock and gold foil, applied a clear sticker from CRAFTplorations Shine Bright Clear Stickers, and layered the panel on gold foil cardstock.
And one more look… totally loving how this turned out! This stencil is amazing!
