Here's the last Tri-Fold Accordion Card I made for my Live last week. I taught how to do this fun fold with my Shepherd's Care Card, and I then showed the other two cards I made using this fold...this card and my Snowy Wonder Card.
Here's the Live That Teaches How to Make the Tri-Fold Accordion Card:

I used the first bundle I purchased from the Stampin' Up! September-December 2024 Mini Catalog (Holiday Mini Catalog), and it's the Winterly Tree Tops Bundle. I've actually owned this one since May. Stampin' Up! holds an annual online event for all demonstrators in June called "Creativity Now." They give those that attend the option to purchase a suite of products from the new Holiday Mini super early in May, and the Nests of Winter Suite was the one they offered this year. I LOVE being a demo!
How would you like to join me in next year's Creativity Now and other demo-only events we can go to in-person? How would you like to get new products before customers AND get all of your Stampin' Up! products at a discount? If you do, you should join my team and become a Independent Stampin' Up!

Here's today's card completely opened. As you're probably noticing, this card is a different orientation than the first two I made. The first two were opened from the top down. This one is opened from left to right. The score lines for the card base are exactly the same. I just rotated the card base, images, and layers 90 degrees.
I absolutely love the birds in this bundle. I actually colored the birds on the front of my card the exact same way Stampin' Up! had us color them for one of the cards we made during the Creativity Now event I mentioned above. They are colored in with the Bronze & Ivory Stampin' Blends and the Color Lifter. I love how they look with these colors.
On the middle of the card, I added the Nests of Winter Designer Series Paper (DSP) strip on the right side of the Basic White piece, and I made sure the design was going the right direction.
I'm so happy how this bird turned out for the last layer of the card. I used Blueberry Bushel Stampin' Blends, along with the Bronze & Ivory Stampin' Blends. Also, the Crumb Cake layers behind this bird and the birds on the front of the card were embossed with the Birch Wood 3D Embossing Folder, which is also a part of the Nests of Winter Suite.
Like with the last card, I've made a free project sheet that lists all of the measurements for you. Since I didn't make this actual card in the video, I've also included some instructions for it. You can save or print it off, get your supplies together, and then watch the video above to make the card along with me.
