Moosy Birthday

Hello Everyone, here it is the long awaited post for a Birthday card and class I will be teaching.
The materials used:

Elizabeth Craft Designs Die # 1564 Moose and Die # 1567 Santa Claus.
Linco Neutral Glue sold on Amazon
85lb card stock
Distress ink - Vintage Photo
Wood Grain paper from Hobby Lobby
Double side adhesive tape from Elizabeth Craft Designs

This card is an A2 (4.25” x 5.5”) it will fold flat and fit any A2 envelope.

Follow me on Facebook at JnUniqueDesigns also for inspirations and new designs.

This is what we will be making:

First take a full sheet of 8.5”x11” cardstock of your choice.

Cut the piece of paper in half to make two sheets (5.5”x8.5”)

Using a scoreboard of your choice, score one of the sheets at 4.25” (will be known as sheet A) On one of the sides of the sheet cut off 1/2” (as shown)

The second sheet using a score board score lines at .5” & 4.25” & 4.75” (will be known as sheet B) On the sheet B cut off a sliver from the half inch side (see photo)

Fold all the lines on sheet B and this will create a box like shape.

On sheet B side closest to the .5” portion, you will need to cut a window using any die you would like. I used a sizzix window die.

Lay sheet B flat with the half inch against the crease on Sheet A. Fold down with glue along the half inch sheet of sheet B ( see photo) Fold the remainder of sheet B to the back side of Sheet A.

Before you glue down sheet B to sheet A it’s time to decorate. I had a stamp I bought from Hobby a Lobby a while ago of outdoor pine trees. I stamped it to the shorter side of Sheet A. The moose borrowing Santa’s Hat was put together and place behind the window on sheet B.

After you are all done with your decorations, glue sheet B to the back of sheet A and work the folds. It should automatically fold flat but work each fold carefully until they learn than that is it.

Well that was simple wasn’t it. Hope you enjoyed this and look for more coming soon. As well as check me out on Facebook at JnUniqueDesigns.

Thanks,

Joseph
