I love this fun fold for displaying a card upright, and was especially happy to find that our border stamps fit perfectly within those score lines! Easy peasy!
I stamped it right onto the card base, colored with Copics before folding, then simply added patterned paper and a little more stamping to spice up the rest of the card.
The colors of the designer papers and the Copic markers that coordinate with them portray the beauty of Fall at its finest! Some of us, depending upon where we live, must live vicariously! ;) I suppose the spattering of copper ink and diluted white acrylic paint could even be considered to represent an early snowfall.
This photo shows the card's easy "box" construction. The measurements and method can be found in this tutorial.
I cut the inside leaf into two pieces before adhering it to either side of the inside fold so that the card would fold completely flat for mailing. Fits into a standard envelope and with the exception of the bow it would be completely flat for mailing.
