Fold out card


This has got to be one of the most darling cards that I have done. I made this really late one night to surprise Ellis the next morning. It turned out fantastic!! I did it with plain-jane construction paper. The measurements are pretty simple:

-Your pink base card is 12 x 5 inches.
-On the front, the two brown pieces are 4.5 x 2.5 inches.

-The square in the middle starts at 1.5 x 1.5 inches and is taken down .5 inches each time you add a color.
-On the inside, the brown piece is 4 x 5 inches.
-The pink and final piece is 3 x 4 inches; I also used my craft scissors for the two edges but obviously thats optional.


Feel free to comment with the card you made. This is such an easy project; anyone can do it!! I thought about stamping greetings or hearts on it but I thought it might take away from the simplicity of this card.

If you have any questions at all, feel free to email me at itsamberroonie@aim.com
Thanks for stopping by and I sure hope you enjoy this project! =)
