Oddball Dino Trio W-Fold Card | Stamping Bella

Hi all. For my Stamping Bella tutorial this week I am using Oddball Dino Trio on a W-Fold Card. This card is known by many names - everything from a pop-up card to an accordion tent card, but I've always known it as a W-Fold. The sentiment I used is from the I Miss Your Face Sentiment set.

Supplies:

Oddball Dino Trio rubber stamp set

I Miss Your Face Sentiment set

Card

Designer paper

Scoring board and bone folder

Adhesive

White card:

(1x) 11" x 5.5" - large card base

(1x) 3.25" x 8" - feature layer

(4x) 2-5/8" x 5-3/8" - large card base

(2x) 3-1/8" x 3-7/8" - feature layer

Designer paper:

(4x) 2.5" x 5.25" - large card base

(2x) 3" x 3.75" - feature layer

How to:

Score the 11" x 5.5" piece of white card on the long side at 2.75", 5.5" and 8.25"

Mountain valley fold and crease score lines well.

Score the 3.25" x 8" piece of card on the long side at 4" and fold in half.

Adhere all the card and paper panels together and then adhere them down onto the card bases.

Stamp the sentiment from the I Miss Your Face Sentiment set on the bottom half of a piece of card measuring 3.25" x 2.75"

Adhere the sentiment the feature layer, and decorate the opposite side using designer paper.

Stamp two of the dinos from Oddball Dino Trio onto white card, colour using your preferred medium then fussy cut around the outlines.

Adhere one of the dinos above the sentiment and adhere the other dino on the opposite side.

Add some paper pennants.

On the back of the small card base, apply adhesive on one end.

Fold back the first score line on the large card base and adhere the feature layer approximately 5/8" in from the edge, and centered vertically.

Flip the whole thing over and fold back the other end of the large card base. Apply adhesive to the other end of the feature layer and fold to adhere down.
