Happy Birthday Waterfall Card



Hi Folks, Peppermintpatti58 here with 
johnsonswhat.blogspot.com
My card today is for my granddaughter's birthday,
She is going to be 12, so that calls for bright colors.
I'm using a template  by Dawn and it's called
a Waterfall Card.
  1.  I cut my first  layer at 4 1/4 x 5 1/2
  2. My next layer is cut at 4 x 5 1/4, which is in pink
  3. Take a black card stock and cut at 1 4 1/4 use a hole punch and put at the lower part of your card with brads, glue the ends just for reinforcement.
  4. Next take black card stock and cut it to 2x9 and score it at 2, 2 3/4, 3 1/2, 4 1/4
  5. Next you will need  4 black card stock cut at 2x2 and 4 any pattern card stock cut at 1 3/4 x1 3/4, glue those on top of the 2x2. Then one strip of glue at the top, starting with the bottom score line glue right next to it and so on with the next 3.
  6. Next take a circle punch and punch a half circle at the bottom of your main card .  Then on your 2x 9 staple a ribbon to pull the Waterfall.

Forth of July Card






"Happy Forth of July to All "


Using a 4 x 5 1/2 card by Recollections, my first layer 
was red card stock, I cut at 3 5/8 x 5 2/8. Used my 
snail runner glued it down.  For the next layer I used white
 card stock and cut it at 3 3/16 x 3 1/16, and I layered a blue card
 stock measuring  at 2 7/8 x 2 7/8 with snail I glued it on the white.
Punched out stars with my Friskers, used ribbon and pop dots. 
Punched out scollops with my Friskers punches and pop those off
 the page.  Stamped Happy 4th  and used my Zig black pen to 
 do dash lines, to give it contrast.
