Introducing My Bookbinding Triangle Fancy Fold Card


I came up with this layout trying to make a more fancier bookbinding fun fold. Layering triangles is sometimes frustrating. I asked my engineer husband to show me how to make my triangle layers more evenly spaced on another triangle layer. Let me warn you, my wording might make your head spin but I conquered this dilemma.

I found this fun fold on this VIDEO by Rachel, Stamp Your Art Out. Working with triangles is tricky, even when you logically think out your cardstock measurements.  I love layers, first layer being 1/4" smaller and the DSP layer being an additional 1/8" smaller. Those my angles did not come out perfect, I am happy with the results. I have BOLDED my measurement changes/additions compared to Rachel's.
