Cascading Pleats Fun-Fold Graduation

 Cascading Pleats Fun-fold Graduation

Some years I don't find the need for graduation cards. Then there are those other years when I need a bunch! This year was somewhere in between! However, I find it's always helpful to have a few on hand just in case. 

This card idea came to me following the meeting of my May stamp club. We'd made a cascading pleats card and while creating together, I got to thinking of how a graduation card with this design would be great. So....

Here is the inside. I didn't grab the correct 'red' Stampin' Blends before I recorded, so I colored the inside using Smoky Slate blends. 😉

To see my hints and tips for creating this card, watch the video tutorial here:

Measurements:

card base: 8 1/4" x 5 1/2"

floating panels: (same or coordinating cardstock as card base) 4 3/4" x 3 1/2"; 4" x 2 3/4"

Coordinating layer: 3 7/8" x 2 5/8"

Basic White (or neutral color): 5 1/4" x 4"; 3 3/4" x 2 1/2"; 2" x 7/8"

Photo (or layer if you choose): 4 1/2" x 3 1/4"
