A Little Laid Back

The next challenge at Crafty Gals Corner is fancy folds.  I don't have much of an arsenal when it comes to fancy folds, so I took to the internet to find something.  I found a blog post about a diagonal gate fold card that looked interesting but was very simple to create. Thank you for the inspiration Queen B Creations!

The great thing about this fancy fold is it just takes two scores and one cut to create. 

The image I used is Laid Back Witch from The Paper Shelter.  She was colored with Copic markers and cut out using the Silhouette Cameo.  I wanted to use the gorgeous paper that came with her for this card, but because of the way the opening is cut, I didn't think it would look right.  I used the witch hat die to make a closure for the card because it wants to spring open.  

To create this card, simply score an 8.5" x 11" piece of cardstock down the center of each side.  You will score at 4.25" on the short side and 5.5" on the long side.  Then cut the piece of cardstock on the diagonal.  Now you have two cards ready to go for this super easy fun fold.
