A Good Man - fun fold

SISTERHOOD TOP THREE AWARD




My Friday fun fold card is this one.
I came across a written tutorial for this type of card and thought I would give it a go.
I have made a video tutorial showing how to do it
over on my VIP Customer Group.
Feel free to join, even if you aren't a customer!

The side view gives an idea of the shape.


And inside there is a place to pop a gift card or money.
You could also add a verse and place to sign 
on the back of this flap.
This card is for a nephew who loves to relax by the sea down in Dublin
where he lives.

Measurements needed to follow along
Card base - 4 1/4" x 11"
Score long side - 5 1/2", 8 1/4"
DSP for base - 4" x 5 2/8"
4" x 2 1/2"
Front flap section - 9" x 3 1/2"
Score - 4 1/2"
DSP - 4 2/8" x 3 2/8" (money pocket)
4 2/8" x 3 2/8" for front

I would like to enter this into


I am struggling to get over some kind of bug/virus at the minute.
I am just exhausted all the time and off my food.
But I do feel I am picking up a bit so fingers crossed.
OMG another storm heading our way this weekend.
I swear I have cabin fever this month!!
Be careful out there and God love those struggling in the floods.
