Fancy Folds

This weeks Stampfairy challenge is to make a card with fancy folds. I take it this means using a non-standard base card type and so I have made another of these triangle type cards (which I think are really designed for Christmas cards- in the shape of a Christmas tree- but they look good for other cards too). I quite like this base card type (it folds down flat to go in an envelope and stands up with some velcro to hold the flaps together to make the pyramid). I have used a Lenny cupcakes image which I have digitally cut down to make a single Lenny with the balloon.

These cards are really easy to make. You just need three squares of card. Score each diagonally and then stick them together like this: (back)
(front):
Add some velcro dots or tape so that the recipient can stick it together.

This is great, and so fab that you showed how it goes together, it looks so complicated otherwise. Love the Lenny bear you've used. Thanks for joining in with our fancy folds challenge last week. Hope you join in with our buttons and fibres challenge this week at Stampfairy. Annette xx
