Tri-fold Shutter Card | Distress Ink

I simply LOVE creating inky backgrounds!
          
Over the next 3 days I will share with you 3 different cards using the same inky backgrounds.
       
You can of course create these in any colour, be sure to tag #thecrippledcrafter on social media to show me your cards using any of my ideas.

Whilst Tri-Fold Shutter Cards are not a new concept, I created this pattern myself, to fit in an A6 Envelope.  
             
      If anyone would me to post the instructions for this A6 Tri-Fold Shutter Card or how to create these inky backgrounds be sure to leave a comment below!
