This week I used items from the fabulous Artfully Composed Suite (the Artfully Layered Bundle and Artfully Composed double-sided paper) for my Monday Make. Monday Makes, is a weekly team event which is held via zoom. For the past 18 months it has been our way of staying in touch and crafting together. We plan to keep this going for the foreseeable future.
The Artfully Composed suite contains –
- Artfully Layered Bundle
- Artfully Composed 12″ x 12″ double-sided paper
- 12″ x 12″ Vellum
- Embellishments – White Frayed Ribbon and Faux Glass Shapes
The primary colours in the Artfully Composed double-sided paper are pictured above. The 12″ x 12″ packs of double-sided paper contain 12 sheets (2 each of 6 different sheets).
At this week’s Monday Makes we made a Triangle Pocket Fun Fold Card. As the name suggests, there is a pocket on the front of the card. This is created by scoring and folding up the two bottom corners. You could also simply glue the corners down but the pocket adds to the surprise. You wil find the cutting and stamping/assembly instructions for the card below.
Cutting Instructions
- Calypso Coral Base card – 15.0 x 21.0 cm scored and folded in half at 10.5 cm
- Calypso Coral cardstock – 2 pieces each measuring 1.5 x 10.5 cm
- Artfully Composed Double-Sided paper – 10.0 x 10.0 cm. If you like both sides then you only need one square, otherwise you need a second square.
- Artfullt Composed Double-Sided paper – 3.0 x 14.5 cm
- Basic White cardstock – 10.0 x 14.5 cm
Stamping and Assembly Instructions
- With the card open (fold running horizontal) use a pencil and ruler to make a mark
- 7.5 cm along the bottom edge of the card (in the middle)
- 7.5 cm up from both bottom corners.
- Score from the centre mark to
- the mark on right-hand edge, and
- repeat from the centre to the left-hand mark.
- Fold back each corner to create a point in the middle of the card front. Burnish both score lines really well with a bone folder.
- Diagonally cut the 10.0 x 10.0 cm square of double-sided paper in half.
- If you like the reverse side of triangles, cut one in half again. If you don’t, then repeat 4 above with the second square, and then cut one of those triangles in half.
- Glue the strips of Calypso Coral card stock to the reverse side of the two triangles. The strips should be glued on the long edges with about 0.25 cm of the card stock showing. Trim off the excess card stock using the two other edges as a guide.
- Glue the triangles to the two bottom corners of the piece of Basic White. They should form a point that mirrors the point on the front of the card.
- Stamp a sentiment and or image on the Basic White panel, and then glue the panel to the inside of the card.
- Adhere the strip of double-sided paper just below the centre scoreline so that it goes across the top of the card front.
- Glue the large triangle to the card front – over the folded up corners. These will form the pocket.
- Decorate the front of the card as desired. Don’t forget that you can tuck stamped or die-cut images and sentiments into the pocket.
