DYI- No Template Rocker Card
by Sandy Hentzel


Items Needed:
A2 Card
Ruler
Adhesive
Scissors
Stamp Image
Pattern Paper
Salad Plate
Pencil
Circle/Corner Punches (optional)



1) At the fold end of your card, you will find the middle and
measure down one inch on each side of your  (1") ruler.


2) Next, you will turn your ruler lengthwise and measure down one inch.
You will cut away the shadowed part of the card, just like below.
 Here is want it will look like cut:


3) At the open end of the card, you will take the salad plate and
use it as your guide. Line it up at the bottom of the  card and draw
a pencil line.


4) After you draw the line, cut away the corners.
 Here is what the final card base should look like.


5) Next, you will pick your pattern paper and cut them to
fit the card base.
 To do this, I just glue the paper where I want it, flip the card
and cut away the excess
 When you flip the card back around, your paper will be cut
to size
 Finish with all your papers.


6) Color you image and get ready to add it to the card base.
I used pop up tape to give the card a little more dimension.
 I like to use a circle or square punch to make a base for my image
especially if I fussy cut the image out, like I did the horse.

That is it. A very easy, DYI Rocker Card without a complicated
template to print out.

That's it for me for this hop, so you better come back, y'all here now!!!

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 ...
