pretty pleats extended

Same beautiful paper as Wednesday and the same fold just bigger and better!

This is the Pretty Pleats extended version using a 4″ x 12″ piece of DSP. Twice the fun and 7 score lines!

Measurements:
Base: Basic White 4 1/4″ x 11″ scored at 5 1/2″
layer: 3 3/4″ x 5″ embossed
DSP: 4″ x 12″ scored at 3″,4″,5″,6″,7″,8″ and 9″
scraps for dies
Boho Blue layer 4″ x 5 1/4″ scraps for dies

You will notice in the photo above that the Boho Blue layer is die cut – this is a matted layer and you will only see about 1/4″ around the outside – so why not use the inside for your die cuts – waste not want not!
Adhere this Boho Blue layer onto the card front.

Score the 4″ x 12″ piece of DSP at 3″, 4″, 5″ 6″, 7″, 8″, and 9″ then using your bone score each edge well.

Adhere the left hand panel to the left inside edge of the card leaving an even 1/8″ border on the top, bottom and left hand edge.

Adhere the larger right hand panel to the right inside edge of the card leaving the same 1/8″ spacing on the top, bottom and right side.

Using the third smallest Stylish Shapes circle die I cut birds from the Flight and Airy Sale-a-bration paper and mounted them on Boho Blue circles die cut from the 4rth smallest circle in the pack.
I cut a leaf pattern from one of the small circles and stamped the Happy Mother’s Day greeting from the Stippled Roses I went over the sentiment with our Basic Black Stampin’ Write marker to highlight the cursive writing.
Adhere the first bird circle high on the first pleat.

Adhere the sentiment to the middle of the second pleat.

Adhere the last bird circle to the bottom of the third pleat.

They should be in a cascading pattern so that each is visible.

I added the Adhesive-Backed Dragonflies and Birds to both the card front and the inside to finish off this awesome pleated fold card!
