Gift of Cards (Part 8)

This is called a Tri-Fold Shutter card

Supplies:

• White cardstock 6 x12
• Red cardstock 3 x 12
• Blue cardstock 5 x 3
• Stars cuttlebug folder
• Silver mirror paper

Tri-fold shutter cards again look complex, but they are fairly easy.  Score the base at 2, 4, 8, & 10.  Then measure down 1 1/2 inches and cut between the 2 and 10 inch scores.  Then flip the card over again cut betweent he 2 and 10 inch scores.  I ran the blue paper through the cuttlebug using the Sars embossing folder. I cut each piece down to fit within the score lines (taking off about 1/4 fo an inch) on the sides.
