August 2020 Stray Duckling Blog Waddle - Fancy Folds

Welcome to the August Stampin' Stray Ducklings Blog Waddle!  I hope our samples are inspirational to you!

This months inspiration is fancy fold cards and I thought I would use product from the new Holiday Mini Catalog - so many beautiful things!

Here is my card which is called a teepee card.  It does fit, when folded into a regular A2 envelope - it looks harder than what it is:

 

This is called a teepee card and I got my inspriation from Angie Juda, better known as Chicn'Scratch.  She mad it into a Christmas card.  Here is a link to her video which really shows you how to make this card simply:  https://chicnscratch.com/2020/08/teepee-card.html

Here are the supplies:

Card Stock:  Cajun Craze - 3 - 4 x 4 piece scored diagonally one way, scrap for cutting the scalloped oval

Magic in this Night DSP - 2 pieces cut 3-3/4 x 3-3/4; cut in half diagonally - you will only need 3 of these

Whisper white - 3-3/4 x 3-3/4, cut in half diagonally for the inside, scrap for front sentiment

I cut out the bats from the DSP using the Halloween Night dies.  I stamped "Trick-or-Treat" on a scrap of whisper white and then punched is out using the Classic label punch.  

Here is a picture of how the 3 scored squares are glued together. One on the diagonal and the other two are attached  as shown:

Glue these together, adhere on the DSP and then close the card with small magnets;  you can purchase these on Amazon.  Here is the link:  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07G878JHK/ref=dp_cerb_1

The size is 8mm x 1mm.  Adhere two magnets on with glue dots.  I also used the black iridescent  pearls.  

All these (other than the magnets) are found in the Magic in the Night Suite, Holiday Catalog.  

Leave a comment and let me know what you think of this card.  I thought it was fun and unique.  I'm going to be making more of these in the near future!
