It’s been a while since I’ve done one of these and so was excited to get back to it. This month’s Fancy Fold Design Team Blog Hop is the Diagonal Square Fold card. These cards are super cute and really easy to make! I’ve made a simple project sheet if you want to try this for yourself, so keep reading. And here’s a video if you’d like to see this in action.
For this month’s hop I decided to make two cards. I couldn’t decide whether I wanted to make one for Halloween or Christmas. So I did both! For my Halloween card I used the Magic is in the Night Designer Series Paper and Harvest Hellos stamp set. The card base is of course Basic Black and I coloured my pumpkin using Stampin’ Blends.
On the inside of this card I used one of the squares from the Stitched Shapes dies. Then to help keep the card closed I added some Linen Thread under the pumpkin. This way I wouldn’t have to worry about losing my thread.
For my Christmas version I simply switched things up a bit. I used Pretty Peacock for the card base and the Brightly Gleaming DSP. The phrase and inside image came from the Poinsettia Petals stamp set, one of my current favourites.
To keep this little card closed I used some of the Silver Metallic Edge Ribbon. And like my Halloween card I just wrapped it around and tucked it behind the phrase. Here’s the inside…
I had a lot of fun making these cute little cards (they’re only 3″). Plus it gave me the chance to use more of my DSP. If you’d like to make your own Diagonal Square Fold card then make sure to grab my simple project sheet.
