Side Fold Card Measurements

Score a 4-1/4″ x 11″ piece of cardstock at 5-1/2″ and 6-3/4″
Layers of the front panels
- Cardstock 4″ square, DSP 3-7/8″ square
- Cardstock 1″ x 4″, DSP 7/8″ x 3-7/8″
Inside panel
- Cardstock 4″ square, white 3-7/8″ square

Instructions

Fold the 5-1/2″ score as a valley (like a regular card). Then fold the 6-3/4″ score the opposite direction.
Use glue to adhere the section between the two score lines and press the card front to the back. This creates the side fold.
Adhere layering panels to the front of the card
Punch a notch on both ends of the section that is glued down.
Place a glue dot in the middle of the smaller panel. Starting and ending at the glue dot, wrap narrow trim twice around the card inside the notches.
Add a bow to cover the glue dot.
Decorate the front as desired.
Don’t forget the inside and envelope
