Funky Fold Class



Whitney’s Stampin’ Studio
All Occasion Funky Fold Class
         
Oh Whale Oval Hoop Card Supplies:
Melon Mambo 4 1/4x 5 ½,
Marina Mist- cut out framelit #5
DSP: Sunshine & Sparkles Cut out framelit #4 and the Cloudy DSP cut out with the #3 oval
 Here are a few tips:
1)   Cut the white cardstock, for the base of the card 4" x 10 1/2". Score 2 5/8" from each end and fold. 
 2) You will need to use 3 oval framelits #3, #4, & #5 to create the "hoop".
3) CAREFUL when you mount the whale so his tail is not in the way of opening the card.
4) I used the Cloudy Day embossing folder on the top half of the card. It's best seen in the first image above. 
5) Stamped the whale in mambo ink on white CS cut it out with the Happy Whale clearlit. I added a pearl, rhinestone or googlie eye to the whale's eye and the small heart and splash from the Happy whale clearlit on the whale. Added the anchor and clip next to the greeting.

Heart Four Fold Card



         
To create this card, all you need are 4 cardstock panels measuring 5 1/2" x 4 1/4". I adhered a piece of DSP to each panel with a different pattern on each measuring 5 3/8 x4". I then scored each panel in the center at 2 1/8" on the 4 1/4" side. Before I folded on each score, I used my "Hearts Collection Framelits" to cut a heart in the center of each panel. In order to make sure all the hearts line up exactly on each panel, I measured an equal distance from the bottom of each panel and marked it with my pencil. I marked mine at 1 ¼ from the bottom on the score line and made sure that the points of the bottom of the heart line up on that point at the bottom and the center point of the heart line up on the score line up top. This is where I lined up the bottom of my framelit and cut all 4 panels.

Once all of your hearts are cut out, fold all 4 panels in half with your "Bone Folder". Adhere the half panels to each other until you get to the last one. Before you adhere the last 2 panels together, insert a piece of ribbon or baker's twine so that it will hang in the center of your card and glue in place. Finally, adhere your last 2 panels together.

If you want to create a floating heart in the center glued to the baker's twine like I did on mine, cut 4 hearts, fold in half and adhere the halves together like you did the card panels.
Embellish as you like. Below I have listed the supplies I used.
