Fall Pumpkin Patch fun fold card by Dori Mendiola

Happy Wednesday AI Friends!

I just love cute little piggies, so this newest country foundations set #6264 - Pumpkin Patch was screaming "color me first" of this Holiday Lane Country Barn series.  Plus, have you seen the new accessory set #6274?  What a great addition to any fall scene and dies are included for each image!  
Win, Win, Win!

My fun fold A2 card today fits right in with the current challenge "Hey Pumpkin".  
Anything Fall/Thanksgiving.  
 This card lays flat for mailing but has a great pop for display!  
Very easy to create, just needs special folds on three panels. 

Cut two cardstock panels (one for each side) at 4 1/4 x 6 1/2".  Along 6 1/2" edge, score at 1 3/4, 2 1/2, 3, and 4 3/4".  Fold the 2 1/2" score as a valley fold where all others are mountain folds.  Do the same for the other side panel.
Center cardstock panel is cut at 4 1/4 x 8.  Along the 8" edge, score at 1 3/4, 2 1/2, 3, 4 3/4, 5 1/2, 6 1/4.
Fold the 2 1/2 and 5 1/2 scores as valley folds where all others are mountain.
For all three pieces, glue the last 1 3/4" piece to the inside of the first.  You may have to trim a sliver off to fit nicely.  You want to make sure that each panel will lay flat.
Adhere each panel to a card base allowing a small 1/8" on both sides or trim the base down to be 4 1/4 x 5 1/4, your choice.

I stamped the image onto copic friendly paper with Memento black ink and colored with copic markers listed below.  I stamped the owl onto another piece, colored and fussy cut so that I could pop him up.  A friend of mine gave me that idea.  Thx Deb!  

I placed apples in one basket (from the Front Porch Harvest set) and flowers from the #6274 - Country Barn Accessory set and the hanging pot has flowers from the #6271 - Flower set 7.  I added a few accents and the card is finished.

Hope you have a wonderful day creating something fun and festively fall for the challenge.  We love to see your creations and possibly win a free stamp set.
