Fun Fold Friday - New Horizons Relax Your Way

Quick share today of another Five Panel card  featuring the New Horizons papers and the Horizons dies ... 

Decorated for the males in our lives that need some downtime... care of the now sadly retired A Good Man... which I know a lot of you bought in the Retiring Sale last month... so I thought I should carry on and post my projects anyhows...

Please note that the New Horizons papers and the On The Horizon bundle/stamps/dies will retire come the end of this month... so if you like them half as much as I do .... please order now to avoid disappointment... 

Right... must dash... creative frenzy in progress!!!

Friday Five Panel Card - Sailing Home & New Horizons...

A simple Five Panel card today ... also known as a Bridge Fold without the Bridge... a card design which first came about totally by accident one day!! Click HERE for a quick tutorial...

A perfect little scenic match... New Horizons papers meets Sailing Home stamps... the latter sadly now being sold out and discontinued... though you can still get the Smooth Sailing dies with £6 discount...

Which leads me to a funny story! I have spent many a happy night fussy cutting these yachts on both card and acetate... as well as lighthouses and anchors... Yup... guess who forgot she had some dies to do the work instead!!! And cough... so sorry class ladies!! Oh well... the set is definitely a keeper for me... so I will remember in future!

And hopefully the next 2 photos will show how the papers were cut... 

This version being specifically sized to suit 6" wide papers... and bear in mind that I die cut and stuck the 2 sets of mountains across first... and then chopped the 5 panels using a guillotine...

Fun Fold Friday - For The Guys Bridge Fold Trio

Finished off some alternatives for the samples made as I "tweaked along"... so one became three....

But first apologies as I have still not "turned off the Feedburner blog notification feed"... I will as soon as I find out what to do! Or they may turn it off first at this rate!! 

But please ensure you subscribe to the follow.it feed if you still wish to see my blog posts.... Add button/form down the right hand side of this blog if there isn't an obvious button within the emails... Thank You...

Click HERE to see the original and for more information...

But basically the Thank You one has wider panels and front stuck on to create the scene... which would have meant some trimming in class... so I decided to change that...

The Happy Birthday one has narrower panels and front... so there is more gapping (vanilla space!)

So I decided on the in between for the final version... ie the Happy Anniversary one shared here

Friday Five Panel Fun Fold Card

Another alternative card using scraps of the For The Guys card kit... Click HERE for a quick Tutorial...

Searched the internet for a name and other creations for this simple little fold... to no avail... much to my surprise... 

So I will simply call this what it is... a Five Panel card... 

Though I did have a few more names... but  I will keep one of those for a special series one day!!

And I have to admit that this came about due to a mistake making my Bridge Fold card... 

Especially as we all preferred this fold... so you will no doubt be seeing a few more from time to time... along with a tutorial as I actually tweaked the final measurements for class to make things neater... but I forgot to re-take new photos!

And I wonder if you can guess what the "initiating mistake" was!!? 

Note that I am sharing 2 versions for you today... for those that think that may be seeing things! One with and then one without the Sailing Home yacht...
