Hello Ladybug Greatest Wish Open Panel Greeting Card. Fun Fold Friday

 Good Morning Everyone

It's Friday, so that means we have Fun Folds to share with you. 

I've made a really cute Open Panel Card which looks like it should be more difficult that it actually is! The Hello Ladybug is the perfect set for this card - and I'll admit with the mini coming out recently, some of my annual catalogue stamps sets have been feeling a little neglected!! 






Measurements

Starry Sky Card Stock

1pc - 4 1/8" x 11 3/4", scored at 5 7/8"

1pc - 1 1/2" x 3 7/8"

----------------------------------------------

Take the Starry Sky card stock and place in front of you horizontally. Take a pencil and mark (in Pencil) at 2" from the right hand side at the top and bottom, and also 2" across towards the right from the score line. Join the dots to create two straight lines.

Place the card in the trimmer, and cut down both of the lines so the you release two strips.



With the larger piece of card the you cut away from, burnish that score line to make it nice and crisp. Add a piece of DSP to the small section.

Also the same sized piece fits one of the cut sections.

Add the Basic White piece to the inside of the card.

The remaining piece of Starry Sky card stock (is the piece for the centre) is slightly smaller. Add the coordinating DSP.

Place the larger piece of card in front of you with the fold at the top, then place the 2" strip of Card along the bottom edge of the card - making sure it is flush with the piece behind and straight along all the three sides.

Add some adhesive to the top and bottom of the remaining panel (holding it vertical). Place this down so that the adhesive stick to both the top flap and the bottom piece to hold it all together. Be sure to do a no-glue practice run for placement to make sure that you won;t be adding glue where the 'open space' is.

Whilst this is laid flat, stamp the sentiment onto the basic white back panel.

On scraps of basic white stamp the ladybug wings 3 times in real red and memento for the dots. Cut out using the Ladybug builder punch, also cut out three bodies with basic black card. Glue the wings to the bodies and add to the card front.

I hope you liked today's card. Please take a look at the links below to check out what both Donna & Karen have made today
