Curtain Call

My challenge is to make a card with the Drapery Fold.  This is a common decorative fold that can be done so many ways.  I can’t remember if this was offered before in a fest, but it is such a pretty look, especially for Valentines, that I thought I would do it.

Please use at least one image stamp on your project.  You may even start with plain paper and decorate in with stamping instead of using patterned paper.  But patterned paper is fine, this is a good stash buster to get you using your pretty papers!

Anyhow, here are some resources, but feel free to use another method.

And I was so excited to find the measurements for doing this with 6x6 paper, as most of the others require a larger size!  I haven’t tried this one yet.

This example shows a double pleated card, and how to use the scraps to add pleats to the inside.

I prefer that you do not combine this with other Winterfest challenges, just because there are usually fewer challenges now. However, you may combine with non-Winterfest challenges including Christmas All Year.

I have two samples.  I used some papers that were included in a magazine, so these papers were a bit thinner and I needed to use a very light hand when scoring.

Thanks everyone!

This will definitely work with plain paper, too!  The fold does jazz it up!  And there is a 6x6 tutorial linked above.

Iring:
Thank you for the challenge Heidi!  I don't remember ever making one of these.  Or maybe I just don't remember, uh oh!  Yours are wonderful, and now I definitely DO want to try it!

Conniecrafter:
I have made a couple of these and they are very pretty, love your examples!
