I love this fun fold idea! I got the idea from demonstrator Brenda Cardinal, she did a card for a swap using this fold (with different paper and a different stamp set). I decided to use one of my favorite Holiday Single Stamps, Prince of Peace in Island Indigo ink. It perfectly matches up with the Deco Label Framelits so it worked great for decorating the belly band that goes around the card. I especially like how you can put 2 different inside messages – each in their own special spot! Here is a picture:
I used the More Merry Messages from the carryover list. This special fold uses 12" x 12" card stock. You cut a piece 5 1/2" x 12" and score it at 3", 5", 8", and 10". Cut three places of Designer Paper 1 3/4" x 5 1/4" – I used the Winter Frost Specialty Paper. Adhere as shown.
The belly band is 1" x 8 1/2". I didn't score it, I wrapped it around the card and creased it in the appropriate spot. I used a piece of Sticky Strip to connect the two ends of the belly and and attached my center piece with Dimensionals. The finishing touch is the Whisper White Organza Ribbon attached with a Glue Dot.
