Hey there! I played with a new (to me) fun fold I'd been seeing online, so I decided to try one! The Pop of Paradise stamps and Pop of Pink Specialty Paper was still on my crafting desk, so I used them again to create this uneven fold card:

This card gives you lots of sections to embellish; with plenty of room for  sentiments!

Card base dimensions: 5 1/2" x 11", scored at 1 1/2", 3", 5 1/2", and 8". Fold accordian-style (Mountain, Valley, Mountain, Valley).

Designer paper and card stock layers dimensions: 1 1/4" x 5 1/4"- need two,  2 1/4" x 5 1/4" – need two, 2 3/4" x 5 1/4" – need one

I gold-heat embossed the pineapple, then hand-cut it with Paper Snips. Did you know? If you leave a little bit of card stock bordering the image it  will look much smoother and even than if you cut flush with the image and don't leave a border. The border allows your eye to ignore imperfections in the cut edge! Pretty cool!

I stamped "happy birthday to you" from Circle of Spring with Melon Mambo ink to make it "pop" against all of the gold embossing and black I've used. I gold heat-embossed the "thinking of you" from Pop of Paradise, then cut with one of the new Sweet & Sassy Framelits.

I love stamping, embossing, and cutting out the flamingo, she's just so CUTE!!!! I used two sentiments from the new Love & Affection set to finish off the final card sections.

When folded, the card will easily fit inside a Medium Whisper White envelope, which has been stamped to match the card, of course!
