Double Flap Card - Card Sketch 1 -24

    

CARD SKETCH 1 – 24 Double Flap Card inspired by Jan B, England

                                                

The card base is ¼ piece of cardstock. The left flap opens to reveal the right flap. The right flap opens to reveal the card base top layer with sentiment.

You are going to cut the base, the right flap and the left flap; score the two flaps; then glue the right flap and the left flap to the base before you add the layers. This is necessary so that the flap tabs are hidden under the layers.

Card Base 5 ½ x 4 ¼ Cardstock. Right Flap 4 ¼ x 3 ¾, scored at 5/8” on the long side. Left Flap 4 ¼ x 1 ¼, scored at 5/8” on short side. 

                                                

Center and glue the right flap on the right edge of the card base.

                            

Center and glue the left flap on the left edge of the card base.

                                                        

Cut & Glue the Base layer (See measurements for layers on the Card Sketch)

Cut & Glue right flap layer, 4 x 2 7/8.

Cut & Glue the left flap layer 3 3/8 x 1.

                                                

Cut, punch or die cut the Center Piece to attach to the center

Lastly, Cut an inside layer, 4 x 2 7/8, out of white or similar pastel. Stamp your sentiment and glue directly under the right flap. I added this last – its easier to stamp first, glue second.  This is only shown as an ARROW on the Card Sketch as it is under the right flap.

Once you’ve made this Double Flap design, make it your own.  Decide to emboss the base or any of the layers; add a sentiment to the right flap, outside or inside. Add an image to the inside of the right flap; add ribbon or bling.   Make it your own design – its expected in cardmaking!
