This card was a hit at my club meetings in April - I showed them how fast and easy it is to make. The hardest part is deciding how to decorate it!
For the first card I decided to use the Affectionately Yours Specialty Designer Paper - this paper is retiring, but still available. It's on sale at 30% off (reg price $13) and now $9.10
The card measures 5 1/2" x 4 1/4" when closed, so still fits into a regular envelope
You start with a piece of 12" x 5 1/2" card stock
Score at 4 1/4", 7 1/4" and 10 1/4"
Then accordion fold starting with the 4 1/4" score line and a valley fold - then mountain fold, valley fold and mountain fold
Here are the measurements for the designer series paper and the mats behind the papers
Mats
2 - 5 3/8" x 1 5/8"
2 - 5 3/8" x 2 7/8"
1 - 5 3/8" x 4 1/8"
Designer Series Paper
2 pieces DSP at 5 1/4" x 1 1/2"
2 pieces DSP at 5 1/4" x 2 3/4"
1 piece DSP at 5 1/4" x 4"
For the Belly Band, I cut a piece of coordinating cardstock 11" x 1"
I just wrapped it around and sealed it with a piece of Tear & Tape
