|
|
My challenge for using your stash is to create a trifold card using some of that double-sided paper you just can't figure out what to do with. You know the sheets I mean - that old paper that seemed like a good idea when you bought a dozen sheets on sale.
That double-sided sheet in funky colors that stares lamely at you every time you rifle past it.
Just whack a diagonal slice off the top of the sheet (I made a diagonal cut from the top left corner to 4 inches above the bottom right corner), make a couple of folds 4 inches apart and start decorating. I suggest you use some old embellies from your stash, too!
Here's a couple I made for you to see. This is the outside of a card I made from a 12x12 sheet-
and here it is unfolded - it says "Have a happy little day!"
I made this from a 6x6 scrap- great size for a gift card!
Unfolded, it says "Bee happy!"
Go here http://mysketchworld.s2.bizhat.com/viewtopic.php?t=3487 to see how Lucy will score your finished product, then be sure to post your cards here and in the gallery.
Have fun - this is such a creative bunch, I can't wait to see what you come up with! _________________ Lori
