Tuesday Tutorial - Extra Small Square Double W Fold Card #4

Carrying on with my Double W Fold Card series... with the fourth size variant so far... standing in at a mini 7.4cm (c3") square when folded... 

This is the easiest version so far... and one that makes best use of a piece of A4 card... giving you two cards from one piece of A4...

Click here for another version/decoration using the Perfectly Pencilled papers shared last week... with  more straightforward punched greeting circles...

Craft Spa Recipe - Extra Small Square Double W Fold Card (actually 7.4cm Square)

Main Card- Night of Navy A4L x 7.4cm (aka 29.8 x 7.4cm)

Inside Base sections - (Dots) paper 14.4 x 2.5cm (x2)

Inside Top- (Floral) paper 14 x 5cm (x2) [or 28 x 5cm if you are using 12" papers!)

Front Balmy Blue mat 5.5cm Square

Front paper panels - Floral 5 x 2cm... Dots 5 x 3.5cm

Ribbon Crinkled White x 9cm

Papers Regency Park (which are gorgeous IMHO!)

Stamps - Alphabest &  Enjoy The Rhythm

Circle Punches -1" (retired) and EK Success 1 1/8" & Dotty 1" 

This fits nicely into a 8.4cm envelope... as these cards are quite bulky when closed into the finished square card ... so need a bit of extra room in an envelope... and a a Large Letter stamp...

Craft Spa Instructions -  - Extra Small Double W Fold Card ( aka 7.4cm Square)

1. Score LANDSCAPE Night of Navy panel at 7.4, 14.8 and 22.2cm 
2. Concertina Fold (Valley, Mountain, Valley)
   
   
3. Cut the two Top (Floral) LANDSCAPE paper panels in half to 7cm wide
4. Adhere to top insides
   
   
5. Fold the Base section (Dots) papers in half as a mountain fold (with dots on the outside)
6. Fold each side up in half again (to form a valley either side AKA a W shape)
   
   For the 2 left hand sections of the card...
7. Hold concertina base sections with 2 open edges and folded centre facing to the right
8. Apply glue to back/bottom face  
9. Stick concertina section down onto right of right hand section (lining up with the Top paper panels at the sides and the sme gap along the bottom edge of the card)
10. With concertina panel still folded up... apply glue to top face
11. Close left section of card onto the glued face
    
    
12. Repeat with other concertina panel for 2 right sections of card...sticking the concertina base section (with 2 open edges and folded centre facing to the left) to the left side of the 2 left sections this time... and folding the right section of the card onto the top...
    
    
13. Ink up, stamp, cut and punch as necessary
    I used the Alphabest stamps ... along with the 1" (retired SU!) and EK Success 1 1/8" & Dotty 1" Circle Punches to punch the greeting and the Balmy Blue and Night of Navy mats...
    And the BIRTHDAY greeting is from Enjoy The Rhythm
    
    I would have added some Petal Park flowers... but time was of the essence for my class so I kept things as simple as they can be...
    
    
14. Decorate card
    Again I kept the front as simple as I could for this one
