Beach Boardwalk Flip Flap Tri-Fold

Beach Boardwalk Flip Flap Tri-Fold

In today’s post, I combine elements from Stampin’ Up!’s Beach Boardwalk Suite Collection with the Flip Flap Tri-Fold Fun Fold. What do you think of the Beach Boardwalk Designer Series Paper and those puffy stickers? So cute.

Here’s what the card looks like when it’s open.

When the card closes, the panel on the right “passes through” the two panels on the right. I’ve included a video showing how this fun fold comes together. Please note: The video shows the same Flip Flap Tri-Fold but uses different Stampin’ Up! stamps and paper.

Measurements and Details

  • Flirty Flamingo cardstock base measuring 8 1/2 x 5 1/2, score each side at 2 1/8. Fold each side flap toward the middle.
  • Flirty Flamingo cardstock pieces: 2 each measuring 4 x 1 5/8 and one piece measuring 4 x 2
  • Beach Boardwalk Designer Series Paper: 2 pieces each measuring 5 1/4 x 1 7/8
  • Beach Boardwalk 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper: two pieces measuring 3 7/8 x 1 1/2 and one pattern measuring 3 7/8 x 1 7/8
