Fun fold Friday Simply Sparkling

 Wow where does the time go? This week has flown by! It's Friday already so it's the final post using the Simply sparkling dies and stamps. But because it's Friday it's Fun Fold Friday 😀

Today's Fold is a type of pop out card. What would you call it? I've got no idea 🤣 I just liked a picture I saw while surfing the web and decided to have a go!

It starts with a piece of thick white cardstock measuring 10.5cm x 28cm scored at 8cm, 14cm and 20cm.  Next mark at You then score diagonally between the 11cm and 17cm both top and bottom. Next score diagonally between the 11cm and 17cm marks top and bottom. This creates a diagonal cross over the center scoreline. 

To Fold the card valley fold on the vertical scorelines and mountain fold the diagonal ones. The folding will become more obvious when you see the pictures below 😉

When all folded shut the card looks like this..

Now the fun part....

The center pop out is made using a little strip of cardstock measuring 1cm x 8cm and scored at 1cm, 2cm and 3cm from each end. Fold the scorelines as a valley,  mountain,  mountain from each end. Adhere the center portion to the back of the sentiment panel. Then adhere the first 1cm panel to one side of the center point of the fold and repeat on the other side. Now your sentiment panel will fold flat when closed but pop out when open.

I have to say I'm loving the cherries on this card 🍒 as well as the Sweet pink and red colour palette.

Well that it from me for this week. Using the Simply Sparkling stamps and dies has been such fun . Please join me here next week when Gill will be sharing her creations with us for more cardmaking inspiration. 

Hope you get to make time to craft this weekend but most of all...

Have Fun

PS. Sadly the Simply Sparkling stamps are no longer available here in the UK but the dies still are.
