Stampin' Up! Pretty Perennials & Paper Blooms Four Panel Technique Card for the Stamper's Showcase February 2021Blog Hop

Welcome to the February 2021 Stamper's Showcase Blog Hop!  This month our theme is "Thanks and Gratitude."  I wanted to create an extra special card as well as share some of my favorite new supplies - the Pretty Perennial Bundle and the Paper Blooms Sale A Bration DSP, and this Four Panel Technique Card fit the criteria!

I love how each panel features a different pattern of the Paper Blooms DSP or arrangement of hand stamped images.

If you wanted more space to write a message you could easily swap one of the Designer Paper panels for Basic White cardstock, or even add additional layers to the back side of the card.

Here is what the card looks like open and fully extended.  When closed it does actually fit in a regular size medium envelope!

The next few photos show the measurements and cutting instructions for the Four Panel Technique Card.  You'll need three colors of cardstock:  Basic White, Night of Navy, and Rococo Rose, as well as three patterns of Designer Series Paper.  

1.  First is the Rococo Rose card base:  cut into two pieces - 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" and 5" x 6 1/4"

2.  Score the largest piece of cardstock along the 8 1/2" side at 3/4" and 4 1/4", then turn the paper 90 degrees and cut at 1/2" from the short edge of the cardstock up to the 4 1/4" score line.  Use your Paper Snips to cut that little piece out.

3.  Score the smaller piece of cardstock along the 6 1/4" side at 2 3/4", then turn the paper 90 degrees and cut at 3/4" from the short edge of the cardstock up to the 2 3/4" score line.  Use your Paper Snips to cut that little piece out.

4.  Adhere the smaller piece of cardstock to the larger along the 3/4" x 5" strip.

Save your scraps to use for die cutting flowers.
