All in the Family Trifold

This is a trifold card thank you card I made as a sample for my sister. It uses the new In Colors Soft Suede, Bermuda Bay, and Crushed Curry. The green is Old Olive.

I started out with a 12″x 4 1/4″ piece of Textured Soft Suede card stock. I scored it at 5″ and then at 10″ to get the 2″ flap closure. I added a piece of Crushed Curry that I scalloped using the Slit Punch. Then, I wrapped some Bermuda Bay polka dot ribbon around the top flap, adhering it with Snail. The circle was done with a 2″ Fiskars Circle punch (Bermuda Bay) and the SU 1 3/8″ Circle Punch (Old Olive). I stamped the sentiment in Versamark and heat embossed it with White Embossing Powder. The stamp is from the Note of Thanks Mini Note Kit.

As for the “window” on the front of the card, I punched a 1 1/2″ hole out of the Soft Suede. To get the Old Olive ring: Punch a 1 3/8″ hole in a piece of Old Olive cardstock; Discard the circle you just punched out. Line up the 2″ punch over the smaller circle hole you just made in the Old Olive, leaving an even border all around and punch again. Adhere the ring to the card stock.

Inside, I lined the card with a 4″ x 4 3/4″ Whisper White panel. I stamped the images from All in the Family in Black ink using the Stamp-a-majig. Then I colored in the images using Colored Pencils and a Blender Pen. The baby was cut out and popped up on a dimensional.

  1. I just love this one. I’ve always liked the stick figure characters. The use of color here is just perfect! You have talent, and I surely will check back again soon.

    Good luck 🙂
