Pleated Card Tutorial

Good Morning Ladies,

Well here it is at last, the tutorial for the card above, basically it shows you how to create the 'pleated' section at the bottom of the card.
I will include all of the measurements that you need here on the blog too, so that you can make a note of them.  If you need any help with anything just leave me
a comment below.

You will need to start with a piece of double sided paper, cut to 3 inch X 11 inch

You wil then need to make a series of score lines across your paper to create the 'pleats'..

Score lines

 Score along the paper

Now we have make a cut line at

Cut between 1.5 inch mark and 5 inch score line 

& from opposite end to 6 inch score line 

This is what you should end up with 

Now you have to the folding, it is easier to watch than it is to explain, but basically you are doing 'mountain' and 'valley' folds from each end in toward the centre, so that your final to folds meet together in the middle.

This is how it should end up 

I will now give you the link to my FIRST EVER YouTube video, showing you the basics of this fold, please excuse the "umming and arring" its because I was very nervous.

It also isn't a highly edited and polished video, its just me in my craft room trying to explain this tutorial.

I look forward to your feedback, hopefully it will be the first of many, as it is easier to show you how to do something than it is to explain it in text.

So here is the Link:  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHugvSA4N6TSVUUuf6XacqQ

Thank you so much for your love and support ladies.

Love and hugs
