See i used Debbie's Die Cuts again on this project. If you like to go her blog and see what Give-a-way she has to offer this month!!
Stamps: Sarah Kay for STAMPAVIE, Curvy Verses by Stampin up
Embellishments: Chocolate Chip wide grosgrain ribbon, Swirls are by Debbies Die Cuts (love these have you noticed how often i used them already this month :-) Prima Flowers and Making Memories Brads
Paper: Basic Grey for Archivers, Pink Piruette, Chocolate Chip
Tools: Sewing Machine, Nestabilities, Stampin up horizontal slot punch
Coloring: Copics and Close to Cocoa for sponging
what i have done to make a bigger version of the triangle fold card is:
Supplies:
2 sheets of 8.5x11 cs in white (or other color you want to use as base)
cut each of it to size 5.0 x 10 and fold in half, you have now 2 stripes of paper each with a score marking creating 4 squares (2 on each panel) glue the two papers together (2 squares on top of each other) fold the other 2 squares in to see if they line up perfectly. than open again and cut your triangles with an exacto knife out. (use as reference my card)
1 sheet of 8.5x11 cs in pink and cut to size 5 1/4
use your ruler and Exacto knife to cut the square diagonal in half
1 sheet of 8.5 x11 cs in chocolate chip and cut to size 5.00 inches
cut this sheet also diagonal in half
1 sheet of DP cut cut to size 4 3/4
cut also diagonal in half
layer your DP with 1 layer of the contrasting CS and add sewing if you like. Add then this piece to the second contrasting CS. (this makes it easier on your sewing needle) and glue this on your card base. These cutting instructions work also if you want to decorate the inside of your card as well - just be careful if you have patterned paper were you see a direction how the pattern runs when you cut your diagonals. add your ribbon underneath your main image. In order to have the ribbon safely secured you should decorate the back of the card as well. This way the ribbon does not slide down. I solved the problem by adding an entire panel of DP to the back of the card and my ribbon is underneath this - meaning: white CS - ribbon - layers of DP. If you choose this solution you will need more DP and CS than i mentioned above. You could probably also just do a flower or a circular sentiment with a scalloped circle layered.
