American Eagle


I love making cards that can be displayed alongside holiday decor and I was excited to find this "simple but fancy fold" on Pinterest.  


It is made from a half-sheet of card stock (11.5 x 4.25 inches) with some "zig zag" scoring but it still folds flat and fits into a standard A2 sized envelope for mailing.


After scoring the base layer, mats and pretty designer papers are added to embellish each section.  (You'll find the method/measurements here).  


I used a combination of stamps and Copic marker coloring, heat embossing, and printed panels from the designer paper pad to construct my version of this project.  The front features the eagle from this week's Product of the Week along with the fish from one of the sets in our Michigan series.  


The center section has a printed panel with some heat embossing.  


The last section has a printed flag and a floral print from the designer paper pad along with a stamped sentiment and the smallest of the spellbinders stars cut from a scrap of gold paper.
