A double side step card for you to try..
... a different take on step cards.
Did you try the side step card yet?
Why not try another "step" with this Double Side Step Card!
This elegant card is another version of the
Side step card,
and will be made in a similar way.
First, until you're comfortable with the steps involved, make a
Template.
Step 1
Take your A4 card, metal ruler and marker pens.
(A4 21 x 29.5 cms.)
(Approx. 11 3/4" x 8 1/2")
Measure in from each side 6cms. (Approx.2 5/16")
Measure from the top 8.5cms. (Approx. 3 5/16")
Measure from the bottom 4.5cms. (Approx. 1 3/4")
This will give you a central panel 16.5 x 11cms, (Approx 6 1/2" x 4 5/16") and is where all the steps will be.
From the 4.5cms line measure up 2.5cms, from that line measure 4cms, and from that line measure 4cms, from that line measure 6cms, the piece that is left should be 8.5cms.
All these need to be scored ready to fold.
The photo shows you how it should be marked.
I have shown the top and bottom marks in blue and these will be mountain folds, but not yet.
Step 2
The green line shows you where you need to make your cuts to seperate the steps from the end panels.
The blue lines are all mountain folds, and the pink lines are valley folds.
The black lines are where the two outer panels will be a tent fold.
This shows you how it will look once the folds have been made.
It can be made for any occasion and can look stunning when dressed up with any
embellishments
that you have in your stash.
Both this and the
Side step card
look more complicated than they are.
I hope you will give them a go and enjoy the projects.
But if the measuring is not your cup of tea then try the simple
Stepper Card
and leave the ruler and pencil in the drawer...
