It’s THURSDAY with Sandiebella!

Stamp Thanksgiving Oddball onto blending card, colour and fussy cut around the outline. Use a craft knife to cut pieces the pieces the scissors can’t reach. Set aside to work on the card.

Score the 3-1/8″ x 10.25″ piece at 3-3/8″ and 6.75″

Open out the card pieces. On the inside right section of the larger piece, measure in 1″ from the 7.75″ score line, and the outside edge. At the 1″ marks, measure down 0.75″ from the top and draw a line down to 3.5″

On the smaller piece, repeat the step above, measuring in 1″ from the score line and outside edge, but measure down from the top and draw a line from 0.25″ to 2.5″

Use a craft knife to cut each side of the lines, making slits approx. 1/16″ wide.

Take the two 0.5″ x 4″ pieces of paper

Slide the pieces through the slits

Fold around the card between the slits, not too tightly, and glue the ends together to make the sliding mechanisms. Push the sliding mechanism of the middle tier down to the bottom and apply adhesive to it.

Take the smallest tier and centre it horizontally, adhering it so that approx 1/8″ protrudes at the top.

Apply adhesive to the inside of the left side, fold in the right side, and then fold the left side down on top of it.

Repeat the sliding mechanism steps with the large tier, adhering the middle tier to the mechanism but keeping the top flush with the top of the large tier.

Fold up the  large tier to complete the card base.

Create a front panel using a postage stamp and rectangle die.

Stamp the sentiment onto white card and cut out with an oval die. While the die is still in place ink with Antique Linen distress oxide ink.

Adhere both Thanksgiving Oddball and the sentiment oval to the front panel using foam tape/dots.

Punch a 1.5″ circle from designer paper. Fold in half and cut across the crease line.

Decorate the tiers, adding a place to write a personal message on the middle tier. A gift card can be added to the top tier.
