Tri-Fold Shutter Fold Cards

 Hi everyone, today I’m sharing these sweet Tri-Fold Shutter cards.

I have made similar over the years, but I’ve changed this one slightly and made a 5 x 7 size.

I wanted a card shape to show off these cute Daisy Mae Design Snowman stamps.

I made one version with a Landscape stamped image and front panel, and the other as a portrait style, so you can use your longer stamps.

 

This style will work well for many occasions and I think it’s a great design for more masculine cards.
