Birthday Flowers

Hey kids! Cindy back on the SBC blog today. I've got a fun fold birthday card to share with you. It's the Joy fold and it's also the optional twist on our current challenge. You can view that post and also enter the challenge here.

TiP: Don't be afraid to try new folds. They are fun to make and to receive :-)

Cut your cardstock to 6 1/4 x 4 1/4". I will refer to this one as the base.
Cut another at 6 x 3". I will refer to this one as the flap.

Score the base piece @ 4 1/4".

Score the flap @ 3".

Fold them both on the score lines. (sorry about this pic)

Attach the flap in the center of the bigger side of the base as shown.

And this is what it looks like closed. Easy peasy, right?!!

Building Block Graduation Card

Hello, everyone! Melissa here on to share a "building block" style card with you. I made this one graduation themed, since there are a ton of graduations going on right now. Hope you enjoy this card, and are inspired to try it out yourself. Here is the tutorial I followed from Split Coast Stampers. To make it easier, I will give you all the measurements, here. It looks harder than it is, I promise. Start with a piece of cardstock in your desired color that is 5.5 x 10.5. Put the 10.5 inch side along the top of your score board or paper trimmer, and score at 3.5 inches and 7 inches. Fold the first score line in a mountain fold, and the second in a valley fold. You should end up with a "z" fold card. The next part can get a bit tricky, so make sure you watch the video to fully understand what I am about to explain. On the back side of the "valley" fold, take a ruler and pencil and mark these measurements: 3/8 1 3/8 1 5/8 2 5/8 2 7/8 3 7/8 ...
