Double Point Fold Card - Couture Creations

Hi Everyone, Anet here today 

and welcome to my inspiration post

for the Couture Creations Blog.

I made a Double Point Fold Card
with the new release Men's Mini Stamps Collection

from Couture Creations. 

I got the inspiration from Lynn's Blog.

Step by step instructions:

1. Cut two pieces of Gentleman's Emporium Pattern Paper to 3" x 4".
Score 3" side of each of these pattern paper pieces at 1".

Make sure to create 1" score line on the top of one pattern paper piece
and the bottom of the other pattern paper piece.

2. Fold each of the corners up to the 1" score line.
Adhere folded corners down.

Add double sided tape across 1" section
of each of the pattern paper pieces.

3. Cut Chocolate Cardstock  to 5 1/2" x 4 1/4"
and white cardstock to 5 1/4" x 4".

4. Adhere one of the triangular pieces
to the top of the white cardstock
and second triangular shape
to the bottom of the white cardstock.

5. Cut Chocolate Cardstock with 
Modern Essentials Nesting Inset Oval Frame 
Cut, Foil and Emboss Die.



6. Ink and Cut Blending Cardstock with
Modern Essentials Nesting Inset Oval Frame 
Cut, Foil and Emboss Die.



7. Add glue to the top of the Oval Frame Die-cut 
and adhere it to the top triangular folded piece.

Tuck the point of the Oval Frame Die-cut
under the sentiment oval to keep the card closed.



8. Cut Chocolate Cardstock with Scalloped Oval Die
and white cardstock with Oval Die.

Stamp sentiment onto white cardstock oval
and layer ovals onto each other.



9. Adhere on the bottom so that 
the point of the Oval Frame
will fit just underneath the oval.



10. Stamp Blending Cardstock Oval Frame Die-cut with
Men's Mini Stamp - Timepiece Stamp and colour.

11. Adhere onto chocolate oval frame die-cut.

12. Die-cut Chocolate Cardstock with
Gentleman's Emporium Filligree Bow Tie Die (3 times) and
Gentleman's Emporium Thin Gentleman's Corner Die (twice).
