MAKING A SCENE - CREATE A FUN SCENE ON A STAND ALONE CARD THAT FITS IN AN A-2 ENVELOPE

 Hi Stampers!

Today’s cards are a bit different from the standard greeting card. These scenic cards stand up making them perfect for displaying, and the cards fit perfectly inside a STAMPIN’ UP!®️ medium envelope (A-2 size). The card base one piece of 5 1/2” x 3 3/4” cardstock. The card front is a piece of window sheet (acetate) attached to the base using two box sleeves (sometimes called pillars or towers). To see a previous post about box sleeve cards click HERE.

Here is a peek at the cards:

This card design is easy to create, full of dimension, and is truly “Oh wow!” worthy. Watch the video below to see how I put the card together.
