For my final card of cute week I knew I wanted to use this particular stamp set . The reason being that it contains the most gorgeous cute critter, my favourite pet of all time.. a Guinea Pig πππ Called Glad We're Friends. It does contain some other cuties but for all you guinea pig lover here they are...
Aren't they just the cutest? I love all the images and the sentiments just make me laugh π
So what did I do with them, well I stamped lots of the little cutie pies, coloured them and fussy cut them out!
I then took a piece of cardstock measuring 14.85cm x 28cm. I scored it at 7cm, 14cm and 21cm. I then marked each side top and bottom at 5cm and 3.5cm in. Score between these 2 points on both sides. Next I cut between the 2 top marks and the bottom 2.
Now to create the folds . Starting from the left hand side fold the first short scoreline as a valley fold. The next is a mountain fold in the middle and valley fold top and bottom. Then a valley in the middle and mountain top and bottom. The next set of folds are mountain in the middle and valley top and bottom. The final fold is a valley on the short fold line.
Now that all sounds crazy but I promise once you do it it will make sense!!
Hopefully the above diagram will help!!
Now once its all folded together it should create a slim line card that will fit into a C6 envelope.
I the took 2 pieces of cardstock measuring 14.85cm x 7cm. I used these to cover the front and back cover to reinforce them.
I decorated the front of the closed card and used some pretty ribbon to secure it. Remember to only attatch the ribbon on the front panel π
The inside I went to town with decorating it in the same pretty pattern paper as the front on all panels except the middle sections.
For the middle I cut up one of the fun sentiments and added my cute piggies all around.
This card just makes me smile and the whole thing is just super cute π .
Well that's it from me for this week I do hope you'll join me and enjoy Gill's creativity here next week.
Have a great weekend and have fun what ever you're up to.
