Good Morning,
Base – 20.5 x 15cm scored 10.5 / 15.5 on long side. Fold in half (almost) and then turn back the front of the base to make a Z shape. Burnish folds well.
Cut strips of coloured card 3 cm wide to make 5 steps
6.5 / 7.5 / 8.5 / 9.5 / 10.5 cms
DSP to mat steps – all cut at 0.5 cm smaller than card – 2.5 wide by 6 / 7/ 8/ 9/ 10 cms. Use scraps ot the rest of the A4 card.
1. Starting with the longest strip, lay across the folded back section of the card base and apply glue to the base only not the strip or you will glue the card shut! I applied wet glue to the whole of the folded back section of the card to have a little wiggle-time - if you do this you will need to work quickly.
2. Line up the left hand edge of the steps as in the finished card. Make sure the steps are straight and no glue seeps out.
3. Check all the edges of the base line up and trim if needed before adding DSP
4. Open the card base, if desired add a strip of DSP to left inside edge to neaten. I cut a strip 4.5 cm x whole sheet (30cms) and trimmed to 14.5. I used the left overs to add inside right edge
5. Cut piece basic white 14.5 x 10 to line inside right of card. I have tried using the whole left-over strip and also cutting at an angle to mirror the front – decide which style you prefer before stamping– the angled strip gives you more room to stamp and write. Stamp before adhering to base, taking account of the DSP.
6. Add DSP to stepped strips on the front of card and decorate with die cuts and stamped images.
This might sound involved but once you have made one, it is fairly straightforward. I always find that choosing my papers is the hardest part as they are all so lovely and cutting into them can be challenging!
