Something Saturday - Peekaboo Diagonal Cut Card

 Hi there Creators

As I mention in the video I was having a bit of a nostalgic wander through my old catalogue (that retired on 6th May) and came across a page that had a couple of fun fold cards.  So here we are today, trying one of them out.....  Theirs is landscape, mine is portrait but the measurements would be pretty similar just having the fold of the card in a different place.

Here is mine: as you can see it's kind of a card in a card.  I've used the Celebratory Sips Suite,  although I confess I haven't used the stamps & dies in this particular card!  The suite has Stamps, dies, 2 embossing folders, bling, ribbon, and Designer paper, all for $138.25 which I think is pretty good! (and just think with the new rewards system, you'll then have $13.80 to spend on your next order - make sure you've opted in!)

If you watched the video you'll know that I accidentally added glue to the wrong side of my designer paper, so I ended up making this card with it: This card also incorporates the stamps, dies, ribbon, and ....... Flower Garden Foils Designer Paper (really pretty to add an extra accent to your project, 2 different designs of 3 colours)

Measurements for the fancy fold card are:

• an A5 card folded in 1/2 then diagonally cut the front in 1/2  emboss the back of the card if you want to.
• cut a piece of Designer paper to 14cm x 9.7cm, and cut in 1/2 diagonally
• stick 1 piece on the front and the other in the triangle inside
• cut another plain colour card 14.8cm x 10.5cm and score in 1/2 at 7.4cm  this will sit the wrong way round on your card, so decorate the "wrong" side!
• stick the mini card in so the diagonally cut piece will sit nicely into it.

And that's it!

I hope this inspires you to create
