Mini Oddball Superhero Double Diamond Fold Card

Hi everyone! Today I'm sharing how to make this Mini Oddball Superhero Double Diamond Fold Card. Such a cute little card and it fits into a standard A2 size envelope.

Supplies:

Mini Oddball Superhero rubber stamp set

Card

Designer Paper - Piatek Trzynastego: Happy Birthday

Scoring board and bone folder

Pencil and eraser

Adhesive and foam tape/dots

How to:

Stamp Mini Oddball Superhero onto white card and colour using your preferred medium. Fussy cut around the outline and set aside.

To make the card base, cut a piece of card measuring 4" x 10". On the 4" side, score at 2".

Turn 90 degrees and score on the long side at 2" and 8".

Make a notch with your stylus, or pencil, at 4" and 6", top and bottom.

Measure along the centre score line and mark with a pencil or stylus at 3" and 7"

Score from the 4" and 6" marks to the 3" and 7" marks top and bottom, as shown.

Fold and burnish the outer score lines.

Carefully fold the diagonal lines.

With the outer sections folded back, squeeze inwards to create the diamond fold.

For the layers, cut card -

(1x) 2.75" square

(2x) 2-5/8" squares

(4x) 1.75" squares

Cut paper -

(1) 2.5" square

(4x) 1-5/8" squares

Adhere a 2-5/8" square to either side of the largest square. Then adhere the paper to the front side. Adhere the small square paper pieces to the small square card pieces.

Apply foam tape/dots to the lower half of the back of the largest square, on the diagonal.

Adhere to the centre section of the card base, lining up the points so that they are at the score line.

Adhere the four smaller panels on the front and back of the outside of the card.

Adhere Mini Oddball Superhero to the diamond using foam tape/dots.

Stamp the sentiment onto a piece of white card and then, using the back section of the diamond as a guide, cut out into a triangle a little smaller than the card layers.
