Catalogue Launch fun with a card fold

Stampin' Up! stamps compliment almost any project and today I wanted to showcase a fun card fold prepared for my 2015 Stampin' Up! Catalogue Launch, simply because I rarely play with them.  This card is a diamond fold, which I found on Sandy Hancock's Blog, and you can see her post and the instructions HERE.  This are my examples the girls had to be inspired from...

 I used the Gold DSP on Hello Honey... and set the 2.5x2.5" DSP square to the diamond...

 This time I turned to Smokey Slate, Whisper White and Hello Honey...gorgeous colour combination

 I set the 2.5x2.5" DSP within the diamond for a different look....

and again, this is stunning, and the colours so bright and cheery - DSP "Cherry on Top" by Stampin' Up!  What fun!

This is the measurements of the fold,
Start with a piece of 12" x 4"card stock
and scored on 2", 4", 8", 10"
then score diagonally from 6" to the 2" and 10" points on either side of the card to form the diamond.
Fold from the end Valley, Valley, Valley, Valley with the diagonals being your Mountain folds

This was so much fun and after the first one, really, really, easy so have a go! We actually spent more time on choosing and cutting the DSP to fit!

Call me or e-mail me if you need further clarification and I will be more than happy to help and don't forget the link to the instructions above - more detailed with pictures - Thanks Sandy

Yours in paper craft,
