Did some crafting yesterday. Made something else that
I haven't made in a long while. This is a card folio using one sheet
of 8 1/2 by 11 piece of cardstock.
Here is an inside view.
Score the cardstock at 5 1/2, then turn and score at 2 in.
You will need to cut a "v" shape in the 2 in score line. This will allow
the folio to close without the extra bulk at the fold.
Here is one of the cards I put in the folio. You might remember this one from the other
day as I made an artist trading card using the same layout. Instead of
coloring the dress I inked the stamp in black and stamped on pattern paper then
cut it out.
I did attach a ribbon around the closed folio so I could tie
it with a bow to keep closed. You can see the ribbon under the
panel I have popped up over the base.
It was so beautiful yesterday that I took a walk in the morning then
took another walk in the afternoon. Today I'll be finishing up a swap that I'm
in. Also have to plan dinner. Would grill out like I did yesterday, but there
are chances of thunderstorms,and it would be just my luck to get started
then have it rain.
