Baby Blocks

Hello Hivers,


My sister will be a grandmother soon.  She asked me to come up with an unique baby shower invite. This is what I came up with.  I seen the video tutorial, HERE.  You will need a 12 x 12 sheet of card stock to make the card using these instructions.  That is what I did using the green card stock.
 However, I use more 8.5 x 11 card stock.

So I came up with directions on how to make the same card using a slightly smaller sheet of card stock. All the steps are the same as in the video, only the measurements change.
Base: 4 1/8 x 11"

Hinge: 1 x 4 1/8" Score: 1/2"

Score:  4 1/8" side at 1 3/8 & 2 3/4"

Score:  11" side at 1 3/8, 2 3/4, 4 1/8, 5 1/2,
6 7/8, 8 1/4, & 9 5/8"

Message Board: 2 5/8" square

Decoration Layers:  1 1/4" square & 1" square

Bottom Decoration:  1 1/4 x 4"

The orange card is made using the smaller measurements.  As you can see in the above photo, the difference in size is not that much.  They both fit in a regular Stampin' Up! envelope.  The bottom photo shows how I decorated the back.  I used the Whisper White card stock here, so that I would have a space for a message.  I didn't take a photo of the bottom, but I did decorate it with some DSP.


Until next time....Buzzz you later,
Honeybee
