Never Ending Card - Cutting/Scoring/Folding

Here is the video to help clarify the scoring and folding for the never ending card. Make sure you scroll to the bottom, where I am listing the dimensions for all the parts.

To make the card:

1. Cut two pieces of card stock to measure 6 inches by 6 inches.

2. Add four score lines, each one is 1 and ½ inch from the edge of the 6 by 6 piece.

3. Now, cut the 6 by 6 pieces in half so that you have four pieces that are 6 inches long and 3 inches wide.

4. Glue to card together as shown in the video.

5. Fold the card as shown in the video.

To make the envelope:

1. Cut one piece of 12 by 12 inches Designer Series Paper into half so that it measures 12 by 6 inches.

2. Fold the paper in half so that you have a square. This now is the exact size of the card so we are adding paper on each side to make the envelope a little larger and it will also look really neat.

3. The side trips measure 2 inches by 6 inches and you need two of them.

4. Score them or fold them in half so that each strip looks like 1 inch by 6 inches.

5. We used the scalloped edge punch along each long side to make it look cuter.

6. Attach them to the “envelope” using snail adhesive.

Enjoy!

A Never Ending Card

This is one of the two designs we used for a never ending card at this month's Mom & Me class. I already uploaded the magnetic bookmarks we made yesterday. The stamp set we used is Animal Stories and since this is an odd size card (6 inches by 6 inches) we made custom envelopes using the matching Designer Series Paper. We also got to use my brand new two punches: large oval and scallop edge. Time flies when you are having fun.
