Default F4A96...Tri-It...You'll Like it!! (12/23/11)

Whenever one of my kids do not want to try something new, we start chanting Yo-gabba-gabba's "Try it, you'll like it!" slogan.

So...today's thing to try...

A TRI-FOLD CARD

(Try it, you'll like it!! Try it, you'll like it!)

There are many ways to tri-fold a card. In my example, I've used a cutting file! Easy peasy! If your stockings are hung by the fire...let's see how you make a tri-fold card!

Great idea for a challenge, Dawn. I need to be nudged out of my rut of making ordinary square or A2 cards. : ) I combined your challenge with the QFTD one this week. It's a busy last few days here before Christmas so I made a simple card. Merry Christmas!

I've only ever made two tri-fold cards, which I think were called "gate-fold" (two equal sides of a square that come together in the front.) I have a stamp in mind for my focal point and I will try to create the three folds around it. Looking forward to seeing everybody's creations!

I confess that I made these two cards earlier but have never uploaded them to SCS. I hope this isn't cheating. They are both gatefold cards.

I've never tried the Cami's Trifold before, so this was a good chance to try that instead of something old and familiar.
Mind you, I spent some time on the way to work pondering whether a trifold card should really mean three folds and hence four panels .

I'll definitely be trying this again now that I'm familiar with the fold and can focus more on embellishing it.
Thanks, Dawn.

Heart F4A96 Happy Holidays tri fold

I had 2 DC ovals, so I combined them and a few tags for this tri fold. I embossed the poinsettias and pines onto the front, and used colored pencils. Happy Holidays to All! Here's Happy Holidays

Here is my Tri-Fold, which was really outside of my norm with all those little flowers

Happy New year to ALL!

I have a friend with some chickens so I made her this card for her birthday! I made it this past summer. I hope it is OK to put this in the challenge.
