Let it snow Tri Fold....

Hi folks.. Another little card fold technique for you today as part of my Creative Expressions Design Team project..

It's been made from one piece of A3 card stock, just scored to make the panels,

the main thing about it being that it folds flat'ish to go into a standard envelope...
So, if you fancy giving it or something similar a go, here are the measurements..

Take an A3 piece of card stock and place it landscape on your score board, score at 4" (10.16cm), 6 1/8" (15.5575cm), 10 3/8" (26.3525cm).

As the A3 card stock is longer than my board,

to do the last score flip the card stock left to right and score at 4" (10.16cm).

And then fold and crease along the score lines.

Using this fold gives you two different options on how you want the finished project to look, i.e., having the panels facing inwards or outwards...

Add some decorative papers of your choice,

folding the card just to make sure your matt and layering hasn't stopped the card from folding flat.

And then start decorating as you see fit...

Thanks for checking us out, see you soon.
Andy.
