Welcome to my blog! I have a fun Triangle Card to show you today. I created this card with the Just Add Ink Sketch Challenge #517 in mind - Update 8/13/20 - this card received an Honorable Mention for JAI #517! The designer paper on my card is called Gilded Autumn. Every sheet in the pack has beautiful foil accents! I used Gold Stampin' Emboss Powder for the greeting and Gold Metallic Edge Ribbon to add even more shine. The basics of the triangle card are super simple. Starting with an 8-1/2" piece of cardstock, score on the short side at 4-1/4" and on the long side at 5-1/2". Now cut diagonally from corner to corner. That's all there is to it - now you have 2 card bases. The designer paper for the card front is 4" x 5-1/4", also cut diagonally from corner to corner. The sentiment (from the Country Home stamp set) is embossed in gold on Cajun Craze cardstock. The scalloped layer is Early Espresso cardstock. The ribbon is sandwiched between the two oval layers like this. I used a piece of Scotch tape to hold the ribbon in place. The Cajun Craze oval is adhered over this layer using Stampin' Dimensionals. It's important that you attach the oval to just the top flap so your card will open properly. To do this, I placed the oval on the card front (without attaching it yet) and laid a ruler along the center line of the card. Without moving the ruler, I lifted it off the card front along with the oval and flipped them over together. Using the edge of the ruler as a guide I can see exactly where to place the liquid glue so it contacts only the top flap of the card. I hope you like this card. It's a fun fold and a great way to use your favorite designer papers!
