Where does the time go? All of a sudden it's Friday 😜 Fun Fold Friday to be exact! So if you haven't already guessed today's Snowy Wonder inspiration is a fun fold 🤣. I'm calling today's fun fold a stepped pop out card, not sure it's the correct name but it's what I'm going with 😉
The card starts with a basic top fold card, 10.5cm x 29.7cm scored at 14.85cm. You're then going to create 4 tubes of cardstock. The first being 10.5cm x 17.5cm scored at 3.5cm, 7cm, 10.5cm and 14cm. Reinforce all the scorelines and fold all the lines as mountain folds. Next apply adhesive along one edge and fold into a tube.
The next tubes are made the same but with pieces of cardstock getting progressively smaller...
Second piece measuring 7.5cm x 15 cm scored at 3cm, 6cm, 9cm, and 12cm.
Third piece measuring 5.5cm x 12.5cm scored at 2.5cm, 5cm, 7.5cm and 10cm.
Fourth piece measuring 3cm x 10cm scored at 2cm, 4cm, 6cm and 8cm.
The next part is all about decorating the inside of the card base and 2 sides of the 4 tubes. I suggest adhering any pattern paper before adhering the the tubes as it might otherwise get a little tricky.
Once the tubes and inside of the cardbase is decorated take the largest tube and adhere it just above the center scoreline of the cardbase. Place adhesive on the 2 undecorated sides with one side on both top and bottom of the cardbase.
Next adhere the other tubes, stacking them one on top of the other with adhesive adhering them to the tube below and the card base. This is then your stepped pop out card base.
Don't forget to decorate the outside of your card. Mine is decorated quite plainly...
as all the wow is on the inside....
Aren't these dancing penguins just the cutest? Dreassed in their top hats with their candycane canes? And did you spot the cheeky little undressed penguin? He's there because you can't have an even number of penguins can you 🤣
Here is a side view of the steps and our cheeky number 11 penguin.
You can decorate the back of the card as a place to write your personal message too 😉
All in all I had great fun making this dancing troop of penguins and I hope you have enjoyed this week's inspiration using the fun and cute
Snowy Wonder stamps and dies.
