Hello again, I've got 3 baby cards that I have created with the Paper Rose Studio Bojo Baby collection.
Paper Rose Studio supplies: Boho Baby Embossed Die Cuts 35092 , Boho Baby Basics 6x6 Paper Collection 35098, New Baby Fine Script Metal Cutting Die 21429, Nesting Arches Metal Cutting Die 25618, Baby's Pram Carriage Metal Cutting Die 17898 , Baby Dreams Assorted Smooth Cardstock 12x12" 12 sheets 32865 , Sea Mist Shimmer Cardstock A5 10pc 29503 , Jumbo Alphabet Metal Cutting Die 17946
I started all of these cards by die cutting 3 each of the largest arch in the Nesting Arches set from white cardstock. I cut scraps of white cardstock to be 3" long by 1" wide, and scored these down the middle along the 1" edge at 1/2". I folded these and burnished them, and then glued them to the back of one of the arches along one half of the scrap strip and then glued a second arch on the other half of the strip. I then glued a second scrap strip to the other side of one of the arches making sure it was folded in the opposite direction, and then glued the third arch to the other half of the strip. This gave me a trifold card.
I then die cut patterned paper using the second largest arch die 3 times for the front, and three times from white cardstock for the back. I glued all of these in place.
For the small step, I used scraps of white cardstock, and scored them at 1/2", 1", 3", 3 1/2" and cut the strip at the 5 1/2" mark. The height of this step can vary, depending on what image you are attaching to it. For the baby carriage, my step was 1", but for the bear and train it was 3/4". Once you've scored these, fold them all into mountain folds to make the rectangle and glue the small 1/2" tab to the other longer end. Next, apply glue to one of the longer rectangles and the small tab to the left of it. This will attach to the bottom of the middle arched section and the arch to the left of it. Be sure to butt the rectangle right into the fold line and make sure it is along the bottom edge of the card.
Finally, I decorated the cards adding the die cuts and sentiments. When these cards are folded down, they measure 4 3/4" tall by 3" wide. But opened up, they are 4 3/4" tall by 9" so there's lots of room for decorating!
Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you're having a great day!
