Cut out using a stitched circle die. Before removing the die, ink around the image using a stencil and distress oxide inks.
Set aside to work on the card.
Repeat these steps for both pieces.
Adhere patterned paper between the 1″ and 4″ score lines. Fold on the 2.5″ score line and burnish with a bone folder.
From the 1″ score line, mark with a pencil at 0.25″, 0.5″, and 0.75″
Measure up 0.5″ and draw a line.
Cut on the 0.25″, 0.5″, and 0.75″ marks, cut up to the 0.5″ horizontal line. Trim the edge of each cut line to make approx. 1/8″ slit. This will allow the layers to move smoothly.
Apply adhesive to the outside of the 1″ sections on each end. Adhere at the top of the 6″ square card base as shown. Fold over the front of the card base and press down firmly to secure the mechanism.
Open the card base up and you should have a triangle shape.
Insert the layers into the slits, starting with the largest at the bottom and working to the smallest at the top.
Take the other mechanism, slide the layers into it and then adhere the 1″ sections to each side of the score line.
Open the book card up and adhere Bookworm Squidgy on one side. Adhere the sentiment from Reading Gnome on the other side.
