This is a great card design that looks much more difficult than it really is. Laurie Willison, another TAC angel, posted her card (so awesome!) and also a link to a great tutorial. I was so excited and just had to try it. So, here you go - my first tri-fold shutter card! My class LOVED making it and that made my day! Such a wonderful group of ladies! Back to the card - the best part is that you can get two cards out of one sheet of 12" X 12" paper and all the designer paper pieces for one card from one sheet of 8" X 8" paper and that's if you cover every open space. You can also leave some open. It's great to play with all the variations.
I created a very rough sketch for how to cut the 8X8 paper. What do you think?
Supplies: Kraft 12X12 cardstock, Monkey Business, Celebration Time, Antique Spiral Clips, Brown Scrappers Floss, Rustic Chic 8X8 paper, Versamagic Jumbo Java ink
Thanks for dropping in and have a fabulous week-end! Happy Stamping!

This is so cute! Love the cutting chart too, do you have this available anywhere to print out, pdf maybe? I've been wanting to make this card, but the paper sizes have held me back. LOL
Awesome!! I love the way you laid out all the pieces! Great idea! I have been getting so many pm's about mine and how to do that! I will start directing people here! Thanks Seleise!
Super cute card! Thanks for the directions too...
Seleise this is awesome. I've been looking for something 'different' for a baby card for a friend, and think this is it. Thanks for sharing all the instructions, your a gem!

What an awesome card Seleise. Although there is so much detail it is super easy to make! Thanks for sharing.
OH MY GAWSH!!! OK, now I totally want to throw MY card in the trash, LOL! :) (just kidding) - Now I want to make a card like this with my monkeys. HOW FUN!!! Great job on this Seleise!! Love your dp too.
Love your take on this card that seems to be the current rage!!! Love the use of the monkeys - I have the set and now have some new ideas on how to use it. TFS
Adorable card... the monkeys are so cute. And thanks for the template for cutting the paper... I'll definitely be trying this one!
Too cute, Seleise!! LOVE it! I so want to try one of these. Was thinking about making a Father's Day one.
Very cute card. The DP is lovely. I always seem to notice DP because I just love the stuff! Thanks for the sketch. I'm doing a tutorial this Tuesday that requires something like this and I played in photoshop yesterday and couldn't figure out how to do it. Ugh!
Awesome, thanks for the instructions. i want one set of this cute monkey, lol
