Make Two Tri-Fold Cards From One Sheet Of Cardstock - Joy of Sets Blog Hop

Nature's Beauty stamp set really makes a difference. For every stamp set that is sold £2.50 will be donated to Mental Health organisations. So please look at buying this stamp set and helping others.

Tri-fold cards is the challenge for this month's blog hop with the Joy of Sets and it is something that I make very seldom. I know that there are quite a few newer crafters who haven't tried a tri-fold card before, so I have posted a step by step video tutorial to show you how to make 2 from one sheet of cardstock giving two 4" x 4" cards.

I have made these in tones of grey and black which I think work perfectly.

Follow the step by step video tutorial below - 



The measurements are - 
Cut an A4 sheet of card stock to 11" x 4" (you can get two from the one sheet)
Score on the long side at 2" and 3 3/4" on both ends.
Front Panel matt - 3 3/4" x 3 3/4" and 3" x 3" and 2 3/4" x 2 3/4"
Side panels in dsp 2 pieces 3 3/4" x 1 3/4"
Inside matt - 3 3/4" x 3 1/4" (Watch the video to see how it all goes together)

Join in with the hop and go and see what other Tri-Fold cards have been created to give you lots of inspiration to make your own and give it a go.

The lovely fox was simply coloured in Smoky Slate with our Aqua Painters

The rabbit again was coloured in Smoky Slate and then put on a stitched shapes die circle.

  1. I see we did go for a similar style Jane. I absolutely love your card. It's so simple yet so intricate at the same time. I just love the greyscale colour theme, it's so classy.
