Reaching For the Stars Bay Window Card

June 21, 2023 Leave a Comment

Reach for the Stars is a great suite.  I love the paper and the holographic specialty paper.  I have to say at first I only purchased this suite for my grandson but I am really enjoying it and have other plans for this paper.

 

I decided to create this Bay Window Card.  I used this same fancy fold when I created the Stellar Birthday card a few years ago.  You can see that video HERE.

Make sure you add your dimensionals to the right side of whatever image you add onto the right of the card.  This way you can tuck the bay window flap under the image to hold the card together.

Be sure to add your DSP on top before you cut the window image out.

Be sure to place your objects within the window so you can see them enough when the card is set up on counter.

 

MEASUREMENTS AND TIPS

Cardbase

(2) 5″ x 7″ thick Basic White
Score 1 piece at 1/2″, 2 1/2″, 4 1/2″ & 6 1/2″

(1) 4″ x 6″ regular white for the writing on the back of the card and sentiment if you wish.

DSP (create for your theme or use regular DSP)

You will want to create one and a half  sheets of Basic White cardstock (8 1/2″ x 11″) to create your DSP images.

(1) 5″ x 7″ for the inside of the card.
(3) 1 3/4″ x 4 3/4″ for the front 3 panels
(2) 1/4″ x 4 3/4″ for both sides both sides.
(1) 4 3/4″ x 6 3/4″ for the back panel where the white sentiment piece will layer on top of

STAMPIN’ UP BLEND LABELS

I created a PDF that in color and black & white.  You will get both in one PDF.  You will print the page you prefer (colored or black and white) and print it twice.  This way you can add a label onto the end of both ends of your marker.  The directions are on the PDF here they are again.

  1.  Print the document on Basic White Cardstock.
  2.  Adhere the cardstock onto adhesive sheets.  (Save adhesive sheets and cut out just the labels from your cardstock).
  3.  You can use a 1/2″ or smaller (I used a smaller one) to punch these labels out.
  4.  If you use the black and white one, you can use your marker to create a line on the label to show the color.

I will share how I do these on Wednesday’s Bingo video at the beginning.
