It's Ice Cream Time!

Hi Artzy friends -

Summer time is ice cream time! (OK - any time is ice cream time for me but I try to resist at other times of the year!)

I created this fun fold card inspired by a card Cindy, (owner of Dare 2B Artzy,) shared in a recent online card making event. I have learned several fun fold designs from Cindy both on virtual events she has participated in and on her live facebook videos she does every Monday night on her  Dare 2B Artzy Facebook page. I love learning new fun folds and being reminded of ones I have done in the past. 

The only frustrating thing about them is that there really is no consistency on naming them. So I'm going to call this one a Bridge Flap card, since it seems to me to be a combination of a center flap card and a bridge card! 

Here are the dimensions I used for this card:

1 - Start with a standard A2 card base, 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored at 4 1/4" 

2 - Cut two slits up to the fold line at 1 1/4" and 4 1/4" (1 1/4" in from each side)

3 - Cut a strip of cardstock 5 1/2" x 1 1/4" and adhere to each side piece, NOT the center flap.

The images and sentiment I used on this card are from the Turtley Awesome stamps and dies sets. The papers are from the Feelin' Groovy collection. 

What's your favorite flavor of ice cream? This time of year I'm loving the fresh peach ice creams that are in season! Think I'll go have a bowl now!

Thanks for visiting, and have a great day!
