Can I just say I LOVE this set! I came by it secondhand, but love it just as much as if it came home brand new.
Anyway, I don't THINK I've ever seen a card folded like this.
The card to the left was my "Happy Accident Fold" card. I had been trying to size-down some leftover photosharing cards by CM and somehow ended up with an extra score in the "wrong" place. Then I noticed how nicely it made the front lay in relation to the back/inside of the card.
I was quite happy with my accident!
To recreate: Cut and score your 8.5 x 5.5 (half sheet) piece of cs, just like for a standard card. Fold in half and crease as usual.
Then, using your paper cutter w/scoring blade or Score Pal, score another line 1" from the center fold/score. Do this on the FRONT panel of your card, so that when creased the front is actually a bit shorter than the back.
Use decorative scissors, punches, etc. to trim the edge of the back/inside of the card. Decorate and Voila!
Hope that makes sense to those of you who may wish to try it. If not, PM me and I'll try to make it clearer.
