Joy Fold Card

If you want to give a unique greeting card, Chris Twina created a great video tutorial on the Joy Fold card.  The video with step by step instructions including measurements can be found here

I am so grateful for the talented women that share and create wonderful tutorials.  Comments are always appreciated, please leave Chris a comment or a thumbs up on her YouTube webpage.

The cardbase with the stamped image, tucks underneath the bird.  This first card opens up in the opposite way from Chris's video.

    • Secondary cardbase is cut at 8" x 3" and scored at 4"
  • Autumn Vine Designer Series Paper (DSP)
    • Outside flap is cut at 2 3/4" x 4"
    • Inside of card is cut at 5 1/4" x 4"

This card opens the same way as the card in Chris's video.

  • Old Olive and Whisper White cardstock
  • Green Tea Designer Series Paper
  • Bird is made using Baja Breeze cardstock
  • Elements of Style is stamped in Old Olive ink

*Helpful hint - Make sure the bird's tail does not stick outside the cardbase.  You can already see the "wear and tear" on my poor little bird.
