I wondered if anyone saw Wendie Rhodes earlier today making a diamond topped card. If so can you tell me how to do the folding. Thanks, Avril.

Oh dear, I'm doing a diamond topped card on Sunday/Monday, but I haven't seen Wendie's show, I wonder if it is the same? Oh well, it's done now
and I took ages working out the dimensions because it is on a large card!

Are you saying none of you recorded the show? It looks so easy done live, much easier than reading instructions.

I'll try and descibe how.........easier with diagrams but need hubby to take the pictures etc.....
Spring / diamond card 1. Mark the length of the card into quarters...top and bottom........we'll call these line 1, 2 and 3 2. Mark the middle of the width of the card at the right hand side. 3. score a line from top 1 to bottom 1.....this will be a valley fold 4. score a line from top 2 to bottom 2.......this will be a valley fold 5. score a line from top 1 to bottom 3......this will be a mountain fold 6. then score a line fom top 3 to bottom 1....this will be a mountain fold 7. To create the diamond shape, make a line from top 3 to the middle mark at the side...........cut this away (can decorate this to stick back on the base) 8. and do the same from the bootom 3 to the middle mark. Then it should fold up....bit like Tea bag folding.....and stick down the section that sits on the base. No measurements here as these general instructions work with any size card Hope it makes sense:) San x |

There was no glueing on the one Wendie did so I don't think that's the one San. I think you're describing a spring card ? Ali xx |

Ooops sorry:o
It was a spring card I described. Didn't see the show.....is there a picture of one anywhere ......There's so many cards called diamond something or other:\ San x |

The first part of the fold was- fold A4 card lenghtways and then score along A5 score line width ways. Then I lost the plot. Avril.

Phew, it's not the one I've done!

I think if you make two spring cards (don't glue anything down) and then place them end to end so one diamond overlaps the other diamond you will have the
shape to use as a template.

It was a lot quicker and easier than I thought it would be, and involved no cutting at all. Says she who looked at the recording on the TV last night, and now
can't remember past the first two lots of scoring, except I can remember how it was folded after the scoring! I will have to make sure I look at it again
once I'm ready to have a go!
