Thick Basic White card base – 11½” by 4” scored at 5¾” Balmy Blue card – 5⅝” by 3⅞” Basic White – 5⅞” by ½” Scrap Basic White & Granny Apple Green card
Using Balmy Blue ink, we stamped the Falling Snow image onto the panel of Balmy Blue card and set aside to dry.
With a pencil, lightly mark the card front at 2” on the short side then cut from the 2” mark to the centre scoreline on the right. Repeat the cut on the left side to leave a pointed card front. Place the 2 cut pieces together, face down, to form a triangle and use Sellotape to adhere the pieces together.
