Stampin UP! Jungle Pals Up Down Fancy Fold Card

 Jungle Pals Up Down Fancy Fold Card


I first saw this fancy fold technique on a post by Rochelle Laird-Smith. Check out her blog or YouTube video at Stamping Flair for her directions. I adapted the measurements to suit my project. Since she gives detailed instructions on her blog, I won't go into detail here. However, I did change the dimensions somewhat.

Begin with a half sheet of cardstock. 
Score at 1/2", 2 3/8", 6 1/8" & 8"

The inside panel is 10" by 3 1/2" 
Score every 2"
The two ends are mountain folds and the middle panels are valley folds.

Center this panel on your half sheet of cardstock and mark the skinny flaps on either end so you can trim these into tabs (see my template)


I found it easiest to understand where to glue the flaps when I glued the middle panel to the middle of the inside of the card and then figured out where to glue the remaining flaps. Once I started with this, I had to make an entire class out of it!

Matching Candle Holder & Box

I decided to keep going by creating a holder for a candle or a cupcake. Wouldn't this make an adorable party theme? Or a welcome baby gift for a new mom - a candle to pamper her and a box full of Lindt chocolate balls. This one comes from Cheryl Hamilton. Search YouTube for Lindt truffle holder for instructions on this cute holder.
