Double Diamond Fold Cards

So, this week we made double diamond fold cards in my Craft Class, so here are some of the double diamond fold cards that I made:-



This one was made using the Grace Taylor "Let's Play" 12x12 papers from Trimcraft, alongside Belle & Boo decoupage & sentiment stamps (also from Trimcraft).


 Above is a double diamond fold card that I made using distress inks, Dovecraft washi tape and Funfair decoupage (by Trimcraft).

This next double diamond fold card was made using Grace Taylor "Let's Play" paper and Belle & Boo decoupage and sentiment stamps:-




To make this card, you need a 6"x12" piece of white cardstock. Below is the template with instructions:-

It looks complicated to make, but it's not too bad! The best way of matt and layering pattern paper onto it is to cut out another 6"x12" piece of pattern paper, and then draw out the scorelines on the reverse, and then cut along the scorelines and lay they out in their positions. Then, one by one, go through each piece, trimming it down so that you have a bit of a white border around each piece of patterned paper.
