Diamond fold Card

This is a lovely little card and the 3D decoupage motif on the front adds that bit extra. Start with a 28cmx15cm piece of card. From the left edge make a pencil mark at 23cm along long edge. Again working from the left, score vertical lines at 9cm, 13cm and 18cm. Score diagonal lines in both directions. From 23cm to the top of the scored lines at 13cm. Mark centre point of short right edge, 7.5cm down. Draw lines from this point to th marks at 23cm and cut to form point. Fold the diagonal lines as mountain folds and open out. Working from left fold the vertical scorlines as a mountain fol then 2 valley folds. Fold up card tucking the valley folds on the right side behind the diamond shape at the front to form your basic card. Then decorate.

Cards for Men

Always a tricky one. This red, white and blue one with lots of collaged pieces looks masculine enough for Dad.

Window Stamp Card

A free stamp from January Quick Cards. I don't use stamps very often but this window with shutters makes a great little card.
