by Laura Lipe
Make your card's message pop up on dimensional blocks.
Supplies
- 5.5” x 10.5” card base
- Coordinating cardstock or designer paper as desired to decorate card panels
- Paper trimmer
- Scoring tool
- Adhesive
- Alphabet stamps or dies, and other embellishments to decorate card
Step-by-Step
-
Step 1
Score the 5.5” x 10.5” cardstock at 3.5” and 7” on the long edge.
-
Fold these as a mountain fold and a valley fold.
-
Step 2
Close the valley fold, and cut in 1.5” along the fold at these intervals: 3/8”, 1 3/8”, 1 5/8”, 2 5/8”, 2 7/8”, 3 7/8”, 4 1/8”, and 5 1/8”.
-
Step 3
Score at the end of the cuts on the 1” slits so these can fold up with mountain folds. Leave the ¼” slits as valley folds.
-
Step 4
Secure the score lines.
Decorate the front and inside panels. (The front panel measures 3.5" x 5.5". The panels on either side of the blocks are 2" x 5.5". Each block panel measures 1"x 1.5".)
Note:
You may choose to back the card with a slightly larger piece of coordinating cardstock.
-
Step 5
Complete the project.
