Kite Fold Cards & Gift Card Holder Different Sizes & Ways To Use Them

** PLEASE READ **
I do score at 5.1/2 as the card is 11" but because I stupidly wrote 5" I said 5", you can see it's 11" so just score at 5.1/2 if your unsure please follow the template that will be on my blog shortly 😁
** UPDATE **
I have since edited out where I say to score at 5", so please ignore what is written on the template and score along the 11" at 5.1/2. Many thanks, Sam x

[@krystyneharris]

Great cards for boys. I always find it difficult to find "male" cards, but this will fill the bill for me. Many thanks Sam.

[@utubesue8]

I thought the same too but if you decorate with some pink elements it can be a girl card lol.

Always looking for a new fun card. This one is a winner! Love this idea!

[@sallyjones7342]

love your project. Could you please list the link for your bow from oval nested dies that you spoke about in your video..Thank you for sharing your inspiration..

[@scrappingscootergirl]

So cute

[@CouzCat]

Great project & a novel use of the squash fold. I’m always looking for cash gifts to my nephew. This will be really fun! On the smaller card is it 10” long scored at 5” or is it 11” scored at 5 1/2”?

[@MixedUpCraft]

I do score at 5.1/2 as the card is 11" which you can see in the video, but because I stupidly wrote 5" I said 5", you can see it's 11" so just score at 5.1/2, if your unsure please follow the template that will be only blog shortly 😁

[@kathleencameron161]

Question: Where did you get your holographic paper from? I love the kite pattern and would love to make it with this paper.

[@glennbreeden1976]

I know the clouds are embossed but did you hand paint the blue background please Sam? Thanks Lisa

[@davideasiebert1941]

I WOULD LIKE TO SEE HOW YOU MAKE THE BOWS, WHERE DO I LOOK? THANK YOU FOR ANOTHER GREAT IDES

[@MixedUpCraft]

Hello Davidea. There are plenty of videos on you tube that will show you how to make bows. Hope this will help you 😊

[@sharon94503]

See's Mixed Up Craft notification, clicks quickly! 11" in half is 5.5" [wink, wink] ?

[@MixedUpCraft]

Did I not say that? oops, good job you have the template! Lol

[@sheri6901]

I was just so confused LOL I was like yeah I don't know the new math but I'm pretty sure that isn't correct LOL

[@debcopland1096]

Hi sam can you link the make a bow from oval nesting dies please. I couldnt find it on your fb page. And once again another great project

[@Donnaliz14]

I'm looking for that link, too, and couldn't find it.

[@susanackerman5990]

I love these cards so much. I want to go to your lives but I am not sure how to figure out the times I am Eastern time in US

[@MixedUpCraft]

Thank you, just type into google 'What time is it in the UK now' and it will tell you how many hours behind you are.

[@susanackerman5990]

@@MixedUpCraft Thanks Love Ya

[@nazlij3298]

Oh WOW Just had to make it with you Thank you One question for the smaller kite, should it be 5 and a half? If so does it affect the cutting measurements?

[@MixedUpCraft]

it's 11" card so score at 5.1/2 😁 I've wrote it wrong that all, the template is the correct size and I said 5" because I was reading what I wrote. Follow the correct template that will be on my blog shortly.

[@nazlij3298]

@@MixedUpCraft Thanks a million. You are an inspiration 🌹💙

[@emmahudson6590]

Great card but you send score through the middle at 5" should be 5 and a half x
