Do You Smell Carrots?

Hi Crafty Friends,

It is Pam sharing with you today.

I am still finishing up my Easter/Spring cards.   I learned a fun fold from Stacey.  She is a wonderfully creative fellow paper crafter.  So I decided to use it on this card today.  I am also featuring two different dies Bottoms Up Bunny Baker and Spring Bunny w/Giant Carrot.

Design Steps:

1.  Cut 2 pieces of white card stock 8 1/4 x 4 1/4 (Score both pieces at 2 1/4, 4, 6 1/4) Cut one piece of white card stock 4 1/4 x 4 1/4

2.  Starting with the widest panel make a mountain fold and then the next 2 valley.  Set the two pieces next to each other as shown above in opposite directions.  Tuck the mountain fold into the valley fold and place close together as shown below

3.  I used a piece of tape to anchor them together then applied glue to the two panels as shown below

4.  After spreading the glue I lined up the 4 1/4 x 4 1/4 square on top of the flaps

5.  This is what it looks like after the panel is glued in place

6.  To open the panel pull on the two side flaps and it will look like this from the top view

7.  This is what the card looks like from the front view 

8.  Cut 2 pieces of plaid DP 2 1/8 x 4 1/8 and 2 piece of Easter Egg DP 1 5/8 x 4 1/8 (I decided to make a spring card rather then an Easter card so I switched out the pattern)

9.  Glue the DP in place as shown above

10.  Use the following dies and card stock colors:  Picket Fence Slimline White - Bottoms Up Bunny Baker pink, white, gray - Spring Bunny w/Giant Carrot orange, green (cut off the little curl at the bottom of the carrots).  Cut a piece of polka dot DP 4 1/8 x 4 1/8

11.  Working on the polka dot square DP glue down the fence (do not put glue on the top of the fence so you can tuck in the carrots), dirt and then the bunny as shown above

12.  Tuck in the 3 carrots behind the fence.  Glue the polka dot panel to the white panel on the card base.  Add your sentiment

13.  This card will fold down to fit inside an A2 envelope
