Clownmom Creations: Colorful Tri-Shutter Card

My card today is full of bright sunny colors -- and lots of folds! The Score-Pal "More Than One Score" challenge for May is to use your favorite color combination. I'm not sure I have a favorite combination (there are so many good ones), but orange is one of my favorite colors. Yellow, orange, and lime green make a "happy-looking" combination, so that's what I chose. I used a die/stamp set and several other dies from CottageCutz.

Supplies used on today's card are:

Yellow cardstock - 12 x 5 1/2"
Lime green for the mats
Patterned paper for the panels
Scraps of orange and black for the sentiment and butterfly
Copic markers
Scor-Pal
Foam pop dots
CottageCutz dies - Marigolds - October (stamp/die set), Happy, Birthday, Double-stitched Ovals, Spring Butterfly 1

Cut the yellow cardstock to 12" x 5 1/2" and score on the 2", 4", 8", and 10" marks.

Place the panel in your paper cutter with the long edge at the 1 1/" mark. Cut a slit from the 2" scoreline to the 10" scoreline. Rotate 180 degrees and cut the same way on the other side.

Fold on the scorelines as shown in the photo.

I used the card base and traced around the end T-shape section and cut a template. I then cut 1/16" around the edge to make a template for the mat piece, and again another 1/16" to make a template for the patterned paper piece.

Cut the mat and patterned paper pieces as follows:

Lime green - 4 pieces 1 3/8" x 1 7/8", 2 pieces 1 3/8" x 3 7/8", 1 piece 2 3/8" x 3 7/8", and one piece using the larger of the two T-shaped templates.

Patterned paper - 4 pieces 1 1/4" x 1 3/4", 2 pieces 1 1/4" x 3 3/4", 1 piece 2 1/4" x 3 3/4", one piece using the smaller of the two T-shaped templates.

Layer and adhere the patterned paper to the lime green pieces. Adhere to the card base.
