This is a fun fold card called an Overlapping Fold.
You all know I love black & white cards!
I added some words, leaves & ribbon to spruce up the front.
How did I do it?
1. Base= 5 1/2 x 8 1/2"- score at 4 1/4" & fold in half.
2. Find center of bottom front & lightly mark with a pencil at 2 3/4"
3. Then diagonally cut from the center bottom (2 3/4") to the outside marks at the fold.
Here is the pattern for the front (base) of card.
Now repeat to cut your layering DSP pieces.
1. DSP layers= 5 x 3 3/4"
2. Find center of bottom front & lightly mark with a pencil at 2 1/2"
3. Then diagonally cut from the center bottom (2 1/2") to the top outside corners.
Here is the pattern for the DSP layering pieces you'll adhere to the card front.
This is what it looks like when you cut off the triangles
& then add DSP layer over the top of them.
You will now cross the triangles & adhere them to the card front.
It will look like this.
