I was needing a fold using the Splendid Autumn Suite for club this week. I had seen a few of these Diagonal Panoramic cards, and decided to give it a try with our Scenic Autumn DSP coming out soon in our Winter Mini Catalog. I just LOVE how it turned out! It was so much fun, I tried another one with the Perennial Lavender DSP - so stay tuned! With 6x6 scenic paper, you will need 2 sheets.
Measurements:
- Crushed Curry: 1/2 sheet, 4 3/4" x 8", scrap
- Very Vanilla: 4" x 5 1/4" (inside), scrap
- Copper Clay: 4" x 5 1/4"
- Scenic Autumn DSP: 2 pcs Black Eyed Susans
To Make This Card:
- Score 4 3/4" x 8" every 2".
- Place a pencil mark 2" from the bottom on the right side of this piece.
- Diagonally cut from upper left side to pencil mark. Toss the top part.
- Now, to cut the DSP for this diagonal piece. (This is actually pretty neat use of both 6x6 pieces!) Your piece needs to measure 4 3/4" x 7 1/2". (And, the DSP is 6".) So, cut one piece 4 3/4" x 5 5/8". Take the other piece and trim off 1 7/8" from the right side. (Save the larger piece for the front of the card).
- Temporarily attach this piece to the right end of the 5 5/8" piece, loosely matching up the pattern. Trim both ends equal with larger piece.
- Next, make a pencil mark 1/4" from upper left edge. And, make another pencil mark UP 1 7/8" from lower right corner. Cut diagonally between pencil marks. Set top part of DSP aside. You will not need this.
- And, lastly, remove the 1 7/8" piece from the far right side. Then, take the larger piece and cut into 3-1 7/8" strips.
- Now, match and adhere these 4 pieces to the panels of the diagonal base, keeping the panoramic view intact. This piece is done.
- Back to the card base. Adhere the Vanilla piece to the inside.
- Run the Copper Clay piece through the Timber 3D Embossing Folder. Adhere to other inside area.
- Next, take the remaining Daisy DSP and trim to 4" x 5 1/4". Run this through the Distressed 3D Embossing Folder. Adhere to front of card.
- Now, let's attach the diagonal piece to the inside! Place Tear n Tape on the 2 outside panels of the diagonal piece. Line up the center score line with the center of the card base, leaving an 1/8" edge above layers, and adhere either end to card base.
- Let's finish this up. Die cut Crushed Curry label from Unbounded Love Dies. Stamp sentiment in Copper Clay onto scrap of Vanilla and die cut to corresponding layer. Attach to label base with Dimensionals, than add to card front.
- For the inside, stamp sentiment in Copper Clay. I added some Crushed Curry Daisies from the Cheerful Daisy stamps. I added centers with the Copper Clay Stampin' Write Marker.
- Finish with scattered Metallic Dots on the front, and Brass Butterflies on the inside.
