Whimsical Trees Bay Window

These Bay Window cards are so much fun!  Once I started creating, I just kept going!  I was inspired by a sample I saw somewhere, but this is my take on it.  Sadly, no stamping, but a lot of fun die cutting! This is the card I demonstrated on my video.






Measurements:  

  • Mint Macaron: 4 1/4" x 11" (cut LENGTHWISE)
  • Basic White: 4" x 5 1/4"
  • Whimsy & Wonder DSP: 2 pcs @ 1 1/4" x 4" (trees), 1 pc @ 1 1/2" x 4" (mint-center), 2 pcs @ 1/4" x 4" (hologram stripe)

To Make This Card 
  • Score Mint Macaron  base at 3/8" - 1 7/8" - 3 5/8" - 5 1/8" - 5 1/2".  Fold card in half. Beginning at the outside cut edge, fold 3/8" score line up ("valley"), the next 2 crease as ("mountains"), and the last little bit fold up ("valley").  Or, look a pix above. Crease well.
  • Attach White layer to the inside of your card. 
  • Place Tear Tape on the inside of the 1/4" by the fold.  Attach this area to the card, like a Book Binder card.
  • Adhere narrow DSP strips first, then match up the 3 panels, as shown. Or, work your way across the card.
  • Cut a large and medium tree from the DSP.
  • Attach the large tree to the center "panel" with the right corner hanging over.
  • Cut an "open" tree from Silver Foil. Attach it to the card with Mini Dimensionals. With the left corner hanging over.
  • Cut 2 "stick trees" from Silver Foil.  Attach to inside of card.
  • For the card "support" attach medium die cut tree to inside of card with Mini Dimensionals along the right edge.
  • FInish with Rhinestones as "stars" on the tree.
