I’ve been trying to do a couple of different folds for cards. This is a normal fold, but with the top showing a little of the inside.
Front –
Card Base – Rose Red Cardstock – 5 7/8″ x 4 1/8″ or 15cm x 10.5cm. Score & Fold in half
Layer 1 – Daffodil Delight Cardstock – 5 1/8″ x 4″ or 13cm x 10cm. Front only – Measure & cut 1/2″ or 2cm from top of card – as per photo
Layer 2 – DSP – 5″ x 3 7/8′ or 12.5cm x 9.5cm
Layer 3 – Tempting Turquoise Cardstock – 2″ x 4″ or 5.5cm x 10cm
Layer 4 – Daffodil Delight Cardstock – 2 1/2″ x 2″ or 6.5cm x 5cm
Layer 5 – Whisper White Cardstock – 2 3/8″ x 1 7/8″ or 6cm x 4.5cm
I punched the edge of Tempting Turquoise using the Edge Punch & adhered this piece to the DSP before adhering to Daffodil Delight Cardstock. I tied a piece of Satin Ribbon along the top edge of Tempting Turquoise & tied a bow on the RHS. I then adhered the whole lot to the front of the Base Card.
I stamped my sentiment directly onto Whisper White Cardstock using Basic Black Ink & adhered to the Daffodil Delight Cardstock, prior to adhering to the front of the card.
I adhered a button to small flower & adhered to bottom of card. I then adhered small flower to a larger flower & placed over the punched leaves. I then stuck a bigger button to the centre.
I run a piece of Daffodil Yellow Cardstock through the Bigshot using an Embossing Folder. This was adhered to the inside of the base card. I cut a piece of Whisper White Cardstock & adhered this piece to the Daffodil Yellow. I cut & punched the edge of a piece of DSP & adhered to the bottom of Whisper White Cardstock.
To finish off, I added 3 Basic Pearls top RHS of card.

I love the idea of showing some of the inside of the card on the front. What a clever idea. The front of the card is stunning. I love the clean crisp lines and the white flowers. Just gorgeous.
