Night Sky Folded Corner Card

 Night Sky Folded Corner Card

In some parts of the World there have been solar storms creating the most magical Northern Lights displays! How amazing!!


So I thought it was fitting to design a card with a night sky scene. 

This fun fold is called a "Folded Corner Card". 


Directions:

Cut a 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" piece of Basic Beige Card Stock and score in half at 4 1/4".

Open the card and on the right edge on the right side measure down 3" and make a small pencil mark right on the edge. Place the open card into your trimmer and SCORE from the 3" mark to the 4 1/4" score line. This creates the corner fold.


Fold this flap down to the card front and burnish.

Cut a 4" x 5 1/4" piece of Basic Grey C/S and a 3 3/4" x 5" piece of the Country Woods Designer Series Paper. Attach these together, then attach to the card front. *Tip: I made a mark on these layers where the card base folds down and I trimmed off the corner. 

Glue down the corner fold.

Die cut a Basic White C/S and a Basic Black C/S Deckled circle using the Deckled Circles Dies. The Basic Black C/S circle is one size larger then the Basic White circle.

Using Blending Brushes, add some Misty Moonlight Ink to the Basic White C/S circle. Then add some Night Of Navy Ink on the outer part of the circle. 

Using Memento Black Ink and the Encircled In Nature Stamps, stamp some trees onto the circle.

Encircled In Nature Bundle #163629 $73.75 CAD

Die cut some Basic Black C/S trees from the Encircled In Nature Dies. Attach to the circle.

Using a White Gel pen, add lots of tiny dots all over the circle, careful to avoid adding dots to the trees.

Attach the 2 circles together using Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue. Add a few Dimensionals to the glued down flap and attach the circles.

Stamp a sentiment onto Basic White C/S using Night Of Navy Ink. Flag cut the ends and attach to some Basic Black C/S. Attach to the card front using Dimensionals. 

Add a 3 loop Linen Thread Bow using a Glue Dot.

I also stamped some trees and added some ink with the Blending Brushes and white dots to the inside of the card and the envelope.
