A Triangle Flap Fold Card for Merry Monday

I had someone ask how to make this card - a Triangle Flap Fold card. I didn't have directions on my old post (from 2023!) so I recreated it using new products:

The card base is Cherry Cobbler, and the designer paper is from the Traditions of Christmas pack of 12" x 12" paper. I'm including some step-by-step photos so you can make one of your own.

Start with a piece of cardstock measuring 5-1/2" x 8-1/2". Score it on the long edge at 4-1/4". Then on the side that will be the front of your card, cut on a diagonal from the top center score line to the bottom, outer corner, as shown. This will create the triangle on the front of the card.

Now take a piece of designer paper, measuring 4" x 5-1/4", and cut it from the top left side to the bottom right corner - this will cover your triangle on the front of the card.

To create the flap, cut your cardstock to 8" x 3", and score at 4".

A little hard to see, but to make the "point" on the flap, I measured 1" from the edge and 1" from the bottom corner up - you'll see little pencil marks on my paper here. Cut each corner off, creating the flap that looks like the photo above this one. Repeat on the other end.

Add a white layer to the inside and outside of the flap.

Now adhere a piece of designer paper to the inside of your card; this piece measures 4" x 5-1/4". (I used the dotted piece from the Traditions of Christmas paper).

Stamp your greeting on the inside of the flap, then adhere it to the inside of the card, matching up the flat, folded edge of flap to the edge of the patterned paper inside.

Fold the front triangle over the inside of the card, then fold the flap over the front:

Add your greeting to the front of the flap (I used the Nested Essentials to cut a tag, and heat-embossed the greeting from Ornamental Christmas in gold, then cut the holly leaves from the Keeping Traditions stamps, popping them up on my label). I embossed the white layer with the Beautiful Pattern embossing folder. Add a few jewels (mine are from the 12 Days of Crafting Advent Calendar). And your card is complete!

I hope you'll give this fun-fold a try!

Homemade Treats for Merry Monday

Looking for a fun, kitchen-related holiday stamp set? Take a look at Homemade Treats:

This bundle has all kinds of kitchen items - think oven mitt, rolling pin, baking sheet and lots of baked goods.

For this card I chose a piece of Silver Foil to cut my baking sheets, and loaded it up with gingerbread men, Santa hats and candy canes.

So cute!

Now true confession: I am NOT a holiday baker! Gasp! I find with all the preparations I make to get ready (shopping, wrapping, decorating, card-making, etc) I just don't want to spend time messing up my kitchen. I'd rather eat other people's baked goods!

So are you "team bake" or "team flake"?

While I'm flaking and enjoying other's goodies, I'll have fun "baking" with Homemade Treats!

Look for it in the OnLine Exclusives.

Gingerbread for Merry Monday

Did you know that the September - December Mini Catalog is almost here? You can begin to order on September 3rd, so get your shopping lists ready! This set is sure to sell quickly:

Gingerbread Man is adorable! There are coordinating dies that cut a huge cookie and lots of accessories for decorating your creations - think hats and scarves, candy canes and peppermint pinwheel candies. There's even a die for cutting off a limb! (Remember, it's a cookie! 😄 Does anyone remember Mr. Bill?)

I had fun creating my little guy. He's cut with Pecan Pie cardstock, and I used a stamp positioning tool to ink up the "icing" in Versamark and then embossing it with Wow White embossing powder.

There are several "faces" you can use - either by stamping or die cutting. Here I die-cut the eyes and mouth, and then I stamped the "cheeks" using Strawberry Slush ink (stamping off once).

I used a piece of the Peaceful Garden 12" x 12" designer series paper for the background, mounted on a Cloud Cover base.

And that tiny snowflake on the cup is a retired embellishment from last year - I had so many snowflakes I just have to use some up.

Gingerbread Man will be available Wednesday when the new catalog goes live. Products are available while supplies last, and I suspect this one will sell out quickly. So grab it while you can, and get "baking"!
