Father's Day Zig Zag Fun Fold

I discovered a card that was similar to this design.  

I could not find the layout name.  I'm naming it - Zig Zag.

Botanical Garden Fall Thank You

I didn't like how this layout looked after creating the bow. I'm really not happy with my results; but what the heck, not every card is a winner.

I use a 4" wide card base because I always cut my DSP at 4" widths.  You get more bang for your buck using this width.  In a 12" x 12" piece of DSP you can get 6 pieces to use on cards, each measuring 4" x 5 1/2".  If you cut your DSP at 4 1/4" widths, you will only get 4 pieces, each measuring 4 1/4" x 5 1/2".

Layering Angles

I saw a card layout that I liked; however it only used one layer of cardstock.  It took me a long time to figure out how to match the angle.  I hope the picture tutorial below is helpful.
