This is the Explosion card I made over at Debs house last week. I have made ALOT since, I will share those later on my main Stampin blog
I am using Whisper White for the base cut at 4" X 12"
I am also using Jersey Shore DS paper you will need
(3) pieces cut at 3 5/8 X 3 5/8
and then (1) piece cut at 2 5/8 X 2 5/8
You will also need your cutter,scoring tool and adhesive and for the stamped images I used the HI & HELLO stamp set so go grab your supplies and make this card with me today..
Have FUN making this adorable card . Have a little bit of Elvis for you too :-)
What a cool idea, I never thought about using this fold for a card. I really enjoy watching your creative videos.

Thank you Dawn for another great tutorial - yours are definitely the very best!!!
I hope your husband made it home safely, I was shocked to hear about sandstorms, delays, etc. Hopefully, when he finally gets home, you will have a fantstic time!
Oh - and congratulations to your daughter - I wish her lots of fun with her driving licence and the freedom that that brings and that she will always travel safely!

Hi, Dawn!
You have got to be one of the best instructors! You make everything appear relatively easy. I love your color combinations, but most of all, your faith in Our Lord. I'm so glad your hubby will or is home by now!!! What a nice Fourth of July you'll be having! You truly deserve it!
Mahalo!

Hi Dawn, I stumbled onto your videos by accident, while looking for something else. Well, I've fallen for Hi ya Stampers and C You later, bye!, and now have done nothing else for 2 days but make your cards. My one comment about the explosion card is this: I've found it easier to score the X lines rather than fold them. My folded cards never came out, but once I started scoring the lines first, I'm knocking them out. Thanks for the awesome tutorials!!
Posted by: Maeve | July 19, 2008 at 02:27 PM
What a great card !!! Love it! Your explanation was the best.
I need to make one to really know how to do it.
Thanks so much Dawn.
