Front Panel Step Box Card!

So, I pinned this card forever ago with the idea that I would try it for my sister's birthday.  I like the way it stands up straight and has lots of areas to showcase beautiful paper.  It was fun to make and I enjoyed reading the directions which took me right back to my childhood in England.  I had forgotten that the verb 'stick' translates to 'glue' as in, "Stick the designer paper to the card base."  : )


Here's the card:

I used Graphic 45 paper, Cheerful Daisies stamps from Sunny Studio, and a Tim Holtz die for the sentiment.

And the back -

Love that Graphic 45!       This is my practice card -

made from a Hobby Lobby paper pad.  I like this one too even if it was just to figure out how the construction works.

Note to self  -  remember to keep the embellishments within the confines of the 4.25x 5.5 card base.  I'm thinking of a haunted house on the front panel with ghosts popping up behind, and a full moon and bats on the back panel.   Spooky!     Happy, happy birthday Janty!   Miss you, stay safe, hope to see you soon and then we can PARTY!       : )
