Nursery Time Fun Fold Friday Card


I have no link for you to click on to show you how to make this card so I’ll have to walk you through it myself!  Yikes!!  Actually, this is a very easy card to make.

First, take a half sheet of card stock and fold it in half.  On the front side of the card cut off 1-3/4”.  Finish up the edge by using a decorative edge punch.  Take a ¼ sheet of card stock and trim off 1/8” on two sides.  This is for the inside of the card.  Do not attach it yet.  You still need to tape the flap to the front piece behind it. This hides how you attached it.

Add a piece of decorative paper to the front.  I cut mine 2-1/2” x 5-1/4”.  My decorative paper is “Nursery Nest.”  I have used this paper on another project.  It’s a very fun bunch of designs. 

I cut the Pear Pizzazz piece 2-1/2” x 3-1/2” and I scored it on the long side at 3”.

Fold the score line and then tape this piece to the back of the white inside piece.  You will be adding tape to the ½” piece that is on the right after you had scored it.   If you’d like to stamp or decorate the inside, do this before you tape the flap to the piece.

Next, tape the inside piece down. 

The piece the cow is on is cut 2-1/8” x 2-1/4”.  I did stamp the image first and trimmed it down to fit in the space I needed it to fit in.  I colored the image in before I taped it in place.  After taping it in place I added the ribbon and the card was finished.

Such a fun fold!

Thank you SO much for visiting today,
