Side Step Cards

Here are just a few cards to inspire you to create your own for the Holidays.

The directions for this simple but unique card are as follows.

Card Base:

51/2"x81/2"

Insert you card into the paper cutter on the long end. Align your card at the 2" mark. Start your cut line 1" down from the top, and continue to cut your slit to the 6-3/8" mark. Turn your card on the short side and make a score line at 1", 2", 3-1/8". Make sure you score only to the slit in your card. The next score line will be at the 4-1/4" mark. This score line needs to be made the entire width of the card. This line indicates the center of the card. The last score line is at the 6-3/8" only to the score line. Lay your card down with the wide end to your left. Your first fold will be a mountain fold, the second fold will be a valley. Continue untill you have all your score lines folded. Now you can decorate your card with your own embellishments.
