Fancy Folds – Corner Flip Card

Hi folks! Thanks for joining us this month! We’re hopping all over the world with some fun cards. It’s time for the new Fancy Fold for this month – the Corner Flip Card!

I don’t think I’ve ever made this one before, if it was, it was a long time ago. It’s so nice to try new folds each month!

This one sounds a little tricky at first, but once you get the idea, it’s pretty simple.

Here’s the finished project so you know what we are aiming for:

Here is one way to get this fancy fold created.

Start with your folded card stock base, I used Misty Moonlight.

From the corner you want to fold down, go down 3 inches, then in from the edge 3 inches. Make a pencil dot for reference

You will make two slits in the card with your paper trimmer, and this is where your cut will stop. It will start at 5/8″ from the edge, and go to the 3″ mark.

The slits will be 2 3/8″ each, and here is how it should look (the red line is where you cut the slits).

Then, you pull that corner forward and the bottom of the square will pop out backwards. Glue the flap down and the rest is just decorating!

The Magenta Madness squares are 2 3/4″ and the White square is 2 1/2″. These dimensions make the layering simple.

I sponged some Bumble Bee on the White to give it color. I also used the Jar of Flowers, lots of Stampin’ Blends, and Wink of Stella to decorate my square.

I stamped the flower multiple times to layer more flowers. I cut them out, and the middle one is up on Dimensionals.

I colored some Rhinestones with the Magenta Madness Blends and added those to the top.

When you open it up, I decorated the inside, too. I love the pretty Flowers for Every Season Designer Series Paper stack – it was my inspiration for coloring the flowers.

The sentiment I pulled in from the Tasteful Touches stamp set.

This was a fun and colorful card and I’m glad I got to make it. I hope you like it and give this fold a try, too!
