Can't find what you need? Let the search box help you.
It's very easy to do and here are the instructions for you to follow step by step.
Step 1.
Take an A4 piece of card and score the same as you would the tri-fold card.
You will now have three panels, each measuring 10cms.
Fold inwards to give a sharp crease.
Step 2
On each side fold it back to the score line, this divides your end panels into 5cms.
This gives you the gatefold on the front of the card.
And this is the shape you should now have.
Step 3
Turn the card over and fold down each corner to the centre, taking care not to fold down the front section.
Do this step for the top and bottom corners.
Step 4
Open out your card and push these triangles in to the centre.
When the card is closed....
Step 5
....the back should have the diamond shape as shown in the photograph.
The card is now ready for you to decorate as you like.
Easy to do, and really something that will impress the recipient.
Magic!
