Double Diamond Fold Card Template

Hello.

This is my version of a Double Diamond Fold Card.  Here are a couple samples of the Double Diamond Fold cards that I've created.



If you google Double Diamond Fold Card, there are a few available templates on the internet for a card that sits on the bottom tips of the double diamonds--the middle panel doesn't touch the ground.  I wanted my card to sit on the middle panel itself instead.  So, I've created this template for a card with that design.

That's it!  Happy crafting.

Happiness Comes from the Heart - Magnolia-licious May Mini Magnolias

Hello.

Happy Wednesday!  It's the day of the week that the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog dedicates to the 'Wednesday Mini Magnolia Challenge' where the design team showcases the Mini Magnolia Stamps images, along with a few Stamping Bella images thrown in every now and then.  It's my turn to participate in this week's Wednesday posting.

I was looking for a smaller card size to feature the Mini Magnolia Stamps on and was thinking that I would do a Diamond Fold Card.  But I came upon a picture of a Double Diamond Fold Card on the internet instead and decided to give it a try.

Here's the card I ended up with.


And yes, the card is small...or at least smaller than my usual size.  It measures about 6 inches wide from tip to tip, but only under 4 inches in height.

This card features multiple folds.


When the card is spread out, you can see all the fold lines here.


Edited (June 30, 2016):  You can find the template for this card HERE, if you're interested.
