I've previously presented my scroll box as a way of presenting a printed out amazon voucher, but this year I decided I needed a new method.
This is also for the gift challenge at the Kraft Journal
This is what I believe is called a "Z-fold" The A4 sheet of paper is folded into thirds to make a DL size (in a z) and then the other way.
two pieces of card are cut (8cm x11cm) and the corners rounded. One of these will be the front and I concentrated all of my decoration on this. I used tea dye distress ink around the edges with cut n dry foam and then stamped in the same ink with a selection of PaperArtsy stamps and a rub-on message.
Check how the fold opens so that the front of the fold is in the front left hand corner of the certificate. Fold up the certificate and then attach the front and back pieces.
The certificate should now unfold and fold easily, just by pulling apart the covers (it's quite clever)
I kept the back very plain
Great design here Joanne, I love the fact it's attached to the gift and it's beautifully if subtly decorated, Gay xxx
