Tri Fold - Triple Blossom Frame Card




















Big Shot or Cuttlebug (I used Big Shot)
Chocolate Chip Paper
Designer Paper
  • Pink
  • Pink and Brown
Sentiment stamp for outside and butterfly stamp for inside
StazOn Ink - Timber Brown
Spellbinders Nestabilites - Blossom (all six dies)


Stampin Up Chocolate Chip cut one at 5" X 10"
Score at 2 1/2" and 7 1/2 " fold on score lines using bone folder

Designer Paper (Pink)
  • Cut 4 pieces at 2 1/4" X 4 3/4"
  • Cut one piece at 4 3/4" X 4 3/4"
Designer Paper (Brown and Pink)
  • Using 2 largest dies place one inside the other lining up scallops run through Big Shot
  • Using 2 middle size dies place one inside the other lining up scallops run through Big Shot
  • Using 2 smallest dies place one inside the other lining up scallops run through Big Shot
Add all pink designer paper to chocolate chip card as follows
  • 2 at 2 1/4" X 4 3/4" adhere to two front panels of card as shown above
  • 2 at 2 1/4" X 4 3/4" adhere to two inside panels of card on left and right as shown above
  • 1 at  4 3/4" X 4 3/4" adhere to inside middle of card as shown above
With card closed and front facing up, line up all three frames cut from Big Shot so that they
are in the center of the card as shown above AND if you have a look at the first picture above you will
notice that on each scallop there is a point at the bottom inside of the scallop touching the center of the card.
This just keeps the scallops all lined up exactly the same for consistency.  You will now know where to adhere them on the card.
Now, remove the the two inner scallops.  Take the largest scallop flip over and add adhesive to ONLY the left side of the scallop then adhere to the card.  This leaves the right side free to open.
Now take the middle size scallop and line up inside the larger scallop.  When your happy with the way
it is lined up, flip it over and put adhesive on scallop on ONLY the right side and adhere to card.
Lastly, take the smallest scallop and line it up inside the other two scallops on the card.  When your happy with how it is lined up add adhesive to the scallop ONLY on the left side.  Adhere to the card.
Open and close your card and you will see how the scallops fit one inside the other.
Add your sentiment to the front of the card and add the butterfly to the inside top right corner of the
middle of the card.






Thanks
