Hi Everyone,
Today I have made a Faux Stepper Card using the fabulous Whimsical Woodland Embossing Folder and the Lights Aglow dsp and teamed it with the Framed & Festive stamp set for a cute card. You know I love to make fun fold cards and they really don't have to be complicated, this one doesn't have any complicated scoring and cutting, it's basically two strips of card scored and folded. Let me show you how I made it.
Materials
1 piece of thick basic white card 4 1/8" x 10", 1 piece 2 3/4" x 11 1/2"
Scraps of cherry cobbler (3/4" x 3 1/2") and basic white card (1/2" x 3") for the sentiment
1 piece of 2 1/4" x 5" gold foil
1 piece of dsp 3 7/8" x 3 1/4", 1 piece 2 5/8" x 5 5/8", 1 piece 3 7/8" x 1 3/8"
Whimsical Woodland Embossing Folder
Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine
Framed & Festive stamp set
Cherry Cobbler ink
Gold gems
Lovely Labels Pick A Punch
Multipurpose adhesive
Dimensionals
Trimmer
Simply Scored
Bone Folder
Instructions
On the long side score the wider piece of thick white card at 3 1/2", 7" and 8 1/2" and fold and burnish.
Score the other piece on the long side at 5 3/4" and fold and burnish.
Adhere the dsp mats to the relevant sections.
Run the gold foil through the embossing machine and then adhere to the centre of the taller front piece.
Before you stick the two sections together, stamp a sentiment on the inside as it is a bit easier to do it before you stick them together.
Add adhesive to the inside bottom edge of the front of the taller piece, line it up so that it is central and level with the bottom of the folded section and adhere in place. Flip over and adhere the back in the same way.
Stamp the sentiment on the strip of white in the centre and then punch out with the Pick a Punch, then punch out the ends of the strip of cherry cobbler and adhere them together. Add dimensionals to the back and add them to the card front. Add some gold gems and the card is complete.
