Box Kite Card



I made this card for a Make and Take for the VC Rockers Group. It posted today so I thought I would post it on my blog as well. Pretty easy to make.

Supplies:
Cardstock cut 1 Tangerine Tango for back of card 4 ¼ x 5 ½, score this piece in half at 2 1/8
Cardstock for front cut 2 Tangerine Tango at 4 ¾ x 1 ½, Score each piece at ¼ from each end, and
also score each front piece in the center at 2 3/8
Stamps, sample used Flower Fest
Ink, sample used Not Quite Navy, Old Olive, an Eary Espresso
½ wide strips of window sheet
Snail adhesive

Directions:
Decorate front pieces as desired. In the sample I used Paisley Petals designer paper cut 4 ¼ x ¾ and then scored in half. Adhered the designer paper to the front pieces.
Attach the front pieces to the back by adhering the ¼ tabs on the front pieces to the back piece at both the top and bottom of the box kite.
On scrap cardstock stamp images and cut out.
Adhere window strip to back of stamped images then adhere other end to the back top of the box kite.
Card will fold flat to mail


Turns out Mom in Law Kate didn't have a heart attack. The results of the testing show she has 20% blockage which is good for a woman her age. She is back at home now. Talked to her yesterday and she seems like her old self. Skip will be bringing her over to our house for a cookout tomorrow. Thanks for your thoughts and prayers.
