Card Making Instructions

Begin with 2 sheets of A4 and on the long side score at 2 1/2, 5, 7 1/2 and 10. Turn to the short side and score at 4 1/2 ( just make a mark do not score all the way down).

Take a ruler a draw a line from the 4.5 mark to the 10 score line ( this should be diagonal) 


Fold each piece so it is concertinaed and then trim the excess off from after the 10 inch score line


Create your masks and layers. The easiest way to do this was to draw around them. Please see video for clarity


The folds were then opened back out and the front of the two panels taped together. The circle cutter was used on these front panels


The same was then done for the panels behind, but using a smaller diameter


Circle frames were cut and glued into place. Copier paper was placed behind to save any accidents


The sentiment from the crafters companion set was heat embossed on a holographic circle and placed into the centre of the tunnel


Panels 2 inch wide and various lengths were scored at the one inch mark and adhered to the back of each panel to hold the 2 piece of card together, Please see video for clarity. 


The 'simply the best' sentiment was stamped and fussy cut out and adhered onto acetate before being placed on the card base. Various die cuts were created in glitter card these were form the papercraft society box and the beer bottle was stamped, coloured and fussy cut out.

Onto the beer bottle label I stamped the tiny Dad from the Time For Tea Designs Set

The beer label was also finished with glossy accents
