Peek-a-Boo: It’s Perennial Essence!

I’m sure there’s an official name for this fun designer series paper fold, but I’m going with the Peek-a-Boo fold.  Why not? It’s cute and you’re not going to forget it, are you? I love fun folds that look complicated, but really aren’t.  Now, I’ve looked up some of these folds online before and there are tutorials and videos, but today, I took a walk on the wild side and winged it!  That’s right, I didn’t measure where to cut, or how deep to cut.  And I didn’t score it so the corners match up evenly.  I just cut it!  Crazy, I know!  (Find out how I did this in the tutorial below).

This is the perfect fold if you want to see both sides of the paper.  Fold like this showcase the Perennial Essence paper so well, you won’t mind cutting it up. And just imagine how pleased your recipient will be to receive it!

Base: Petal Pink, 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″
Layer 1: Whisper White, 5 1/8″ x 3 7/8″
Layer 2: Perennial Essence Designer Series Paper, 5″ x 3 3/4″
Layer 4: Petal Pink, punched with Perennial Flower Punch (2 x’s)

1. In Blackberry Bliss, stamp sentiment on Layer 1 and flowers on Layer 4. 
2. Make a cut with your snips about 1/2 down the length of Layer 2 to about the center of the paper. Use your Bone Folder to fold back the paper. Tack down corners with Snail.
3. Adhere Layers 1 -2 to Base.  Add flowers with dimensionals. Finish with a Perennial Essence Floral Center.
