| Trifold Card! |
| |
Supplies:
Tinkering Ink Beloved Tender Patterned Paper,
Red Cardstock ,
Pink Ribbon ,
4 Brads ,
Chipboard Heart (Mine was Making Memories),
Damask Stamp or Sticker (Mine was a Heidi Swapp
Pink Damask Sticker),
Miscellaneous bits of red, pink and blue ribbon,
Plain Chipboard,
Pink and Red Paint,
Pink Paper Flower and Brad for center,
Paper Clip (Mine was Making Memories),
3 - 3-1/2 x 5 black and white or coordinating photos
Instructions:
Cut 3 4x6 pieces of chipboard and cover the backs
with the red cardstock. The chipboard will give your
project stability so that it can stand and be displayed
on it's own.
Sponge paint the outside edges of all three pieces
with pink paint.
Adhere your embellishements to the front cover. You
can use anything you wish but I had the damask
sticker in my stash and thought it was perfect with the
Tinkering Ink patterned paper. The large circle with
roses from the pak would also be perfect on the cover.
When creating the cover I wanted it to have lots of
dimension so I layered the chipboard heart, paper
flower and tied some ribbons on the heart. The perfect
heart for this project would be the Heidi Swapp one
that was included in one of the previous classy paks.
You could even add some stitching to the heart for
added dimension.
Lay your 3 chipboard pieces face down in a row and
adhere four 1-1/2" strips of ribbon. Punch holes
through the ribbon, cardstock and chipboard and
attach brads through the punched holes. It's important
to do this step in the correct order so you do not see
the brads on the inside of your tri-fold.
Turn your project over. Cut and adhere three 4x6
pieces of the Tinkering Ink patterned paper and
adhere to the inside of your chipboard pieces
(covering the backs of the brads.
Paint the outside edges of your photos with red paint
and adhere them to the center of each of the card
faces.
Add some stickers or other embellishment of choice
along the bottom (or top) of each of the photos so that
it creates a line through the tri-fold. I hope you enjoy
making this project as much as I did.

Coach
