I saw this Fancy Fold technique on Pinterest and had to figure it out! I love Fancy Fold techniques! So I will see if I can explain it! For cards like this – I always make a template. I recommend using two different colors of Cardstock to make your template as it helps you to remember how the pieces fit together!
NOTE: These pictures are from my template. I used Pool Party as the base for this card and whisper white for the inside portion of the card.


2. Cut a coordinating piece of cardstock to 7 1/2″ x 5 1/4″, score at 2 1/2″ and 5″ (I used whisper white for my 2nd piece on my template). Fold in a Z pattern. Attach the back of the 2nd piece to the back of the base. With the Z fold – the two pieces together will form a square in the center.
3. Attach the 4″ square that you cut when you cut out the window to the front part of the Z fold. I trimmed 1/8″ off two sides so the piece will fold smoothly thru the window of the card base. I then added a 3 1/2″ square of whisper white as a layer.


That’s it! So here are pictures of my finished project with the Springtime Foil DSP. I do love this DSP – did I mention that already? The flowers on the front are fussy cut from the Copper Foil design and colored with the Blends markers. The square on this card is a 4″ square of Gold Foil that I have embossed with the Layered Leaves embossing folder. I stamped “wedding wishes” from the Rose Wonder stamp set with versamark and embossed with Silver embossing powder.

The inside piece for my Springtime Foil card is the embossed leaves. I stamped 3 of the small flowers from the Rose Wonder stamp set on a piece of Glossy White cardstock, embossed them and cut them out with the coordinating thinlits. I added a message also from the Rose Wonder stamp set to the back layer of the card.
So I hope you have liked my project today. I am planning on recording a video for this technique.
