The Tower Card is a great design. The four sides allow you to show off any Designer Series Paper and send a message for any event. It looks much more complicated than it really is. The best part is that it folds flat so it easily fits in an envelope. I love this card design. I used the Stampin'Up Hydrangea Haven Bundle and Petite Pairs Stamp Set (retired) in creating this card.
Measurements:
1 card center 4 1/4” X 14 1/4”. Score at 1”, 2”, 3” and 4” (leaving 1/4” on one end).
4 pieces of cardstock 4 1/4 X 2 3/4”;
4 pieces white cardstock 21/2” X 4” and 1 piece of white cardstock 1 1/2” X 4”
4 pieces of DSP 1 3/4” X 2 1/2” and 2 pieces of DSP 11/2” X 4”.
4 pieces of ribbon 3 1/2” long
Instructions:
- Score card center at 1", 2" 3" and 4", leaving 1/4" on one end. Fold inward on each score line to form a square tube. Place adhesive along the 1/4" strip and adhere to the end of the first section.
- Adhere each 4 1/4" X 2 3/4" piece of cardstock to the four separate sections of the square tube.
- Adhere the 1 3/4" 2 1/2" pieces of DSP onto the bottom of the 2 1/2" X 4" white card stock. Cover the seams by placing a strip of ribbon along each, folding and adhering the ends to the back of the white cardstock. I used the Stampin'Up Purple posy ribbon (retired).
- Adhere each of these pieces of white cardstock to each of the four pieces of cardstock on the square tube.
- Adhere the 1 1/2" X 4 pieces of DSP and the 1 1/2" X 4 piece of strip of cardstock visible on the backside of each 4 1/4" X 2 3/4" piece of cardstock.
- Stamp desired sentiments on white cardstock. Choose a die to cut out the sentiment. Mount this piece on cardstock or coordinating cardstock.
- Decorate each section as desired.
