full of life 4 piece puzzle slider card

Today’s blog post details a Puzzle Fun Fold using the Full of Life 6″ x 6″ DSP sometimes called a 4 Piece Puzzle Slider card.

I love the starburst pieces of this pack of DSP dividing them up in a puzzle creates a very fun card.

Measurements:
BASE: Pool Party CS: 4 1/4″ x 9 1/2″
scored at 1″, 2″ 7 1/2″ and 8 1/2″
Matte pieces (2) 2 1/8″ x 2 1/4″
(2) 2 1/8″ x 3 1/4″
DSP: 3 3/4″ x 5″
Basic White CS: 4″ x 5 1/4″

Cut the Base card 4 1/4″ x 9 1/2″ then score at 1″, 2″, 7 1/2″ and 8 1/2″.

Cut the DSP layer in half at 1 7/8″ on the 3 3/4″ side.

Put the paper back together and cut the top piece at 3″ from the left side.
cut the lower section at 2″ from the left hand side.

Fold the cardstock base in a mountain position at the 1″ score line and a valley position at the 2″ score line. Fold the score at the 7 1/2″ in a valley fold and a mountain fold at the 8 1/2″ score.

Adhere the DSP to the Matte pieces.

Adhere the 4″ x 5 1/4″ Basic White piece to the center panel on the base card.

Adhere the top matted DSP piece to the top of the left hand panel.

Adhere the lower left hand piece to the lower bottom of the left hand panel.

Adhere the lower right-hand matted piece to the lower portion of the right-hand panel.

Adhere the last matted piece to the top portion of the right-hand panel.

On the medium banner from the Stylish Shapes stamp in Pool Party ink the background stamp.
Stamp in Tuxedo Black Memento ink the “thinking of you” sentiment from the Friends for Life stamp set.
Adhere to the lower right-hand corner and cut off the right-hand edge that hangs over.

Color the Iridescent Pearls with a Dark Pool Party Stampin’ Blends Marker. Allow to dry.

Place five colored Iridescent Pearl embellishments onto the card front to finish off the card!

This card stands up on it’s own and such a fun way to display great looking Designer Series Papers! Try this fun fold with your stash and see what artwork you can create – one pattern and one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’
