Hello and Welcome back.
I came across another blog that showcased this amazing fun fold card and was determined to give it ago myself. This fantastic fold is called a W-V fold card and it get's it's name from the two shapes the folds of the card makes - the W folds on the front of the card and V that joins the 2 mountain folds of the W.
It took a little longer than usual to make this card, because I wanted to use the hexagons from the Meant to Bee dies for the V shape and it required a little bit of concentration to get the placement right.
To make this card you need ( I have included cm measurements, however they might not be exact as I rather working in inches).
Card base: 5 1/2 x 11" scored on the long side at 1 3/4", 3 1/2", 5 1/4" and 7"
14 x 28 cm scored at 4.4, 8.8, 13.3 and 17.7 cm
DSP: 1 1/2 x 5 1/4 (cut 4) W fold strips (3.8 x 13.3 cm)
3 1/2 x 5 1/4 Back of card (9.5 x 13.3 cm)
V fold: 6 x 3 1/2" piece Old Olive Card, scored at 3 and folded in half, then cut out using the Hexagon die. Make sure that you place one end of the hexagon die off the end of the platform so that you don't cut all the way through it and create the V fold.
Have other scraps of DSP and Card to decorate the hexagons and add other decorations as required.
If you live in Australia and don't already have a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, please reach out I would love to help you. You can also find all the items I have used listed below with links to my online store.
Until next time,
Happy Crafting
