Triple Diamond Floating Card

 With a new release from Sweet November Stamps just around the corner it is time to have a play with a previous Halloween release. This stamp set is from last year. I love every stamp within the set and really wanted to showcase it all but could not decide on how best to integrate them all without making the card way way too busy but remembered the floating diamond panel card and I think it works perfectly


There is of course a video up on my YouTube channel talking you through the making process. Please note though this is for the card base only and not the colouring

Cardmaking Instructions

Begin with 2 pieces of card measuring 9 1/2 by 4 1/2 inch. On the long side score these at 2 3/8, 4 3/4, 7 1/8. On short sides put a pencil mark at 2 1/4 on both ends.


Take a ruler and pencil and mark from the 2 1/4 pencil mark to the outer edges of the first score line on all 4 edges


Cut these away down these pencil lines and adhere onto the 4 rectangle panels matts measuring 2 by 4 1/4 inch and layers measuring 1 3/4 by 4 inch. The middle score lines between the matts and layers was folded as a valley

I used the stitched nesting die which measured 2 5/8th, cutting 3 times and stamped my images, colouring up and creating a scene on each.

These scenes were then adhered onto silver card measuring 3 by 3 inch. Before being adhered onto black measuring 3 1/4 by 3 3/4


The left hand panel of one of the card bases was folded back on itself and the right hand panel on the other. Glue was added to these and the square image panel adhered to hold the card base together



The two remaining end triangles were then folded away from the middle image and the final image squared were adhered.
