Clue #1 Locate the following:
- Patterned Paper (the main print)
- Patterned Paper (subdued print)
- two colors of cardstock (color A and color B)
- Basic White cardstock
- Paper Trimmer
- Adhesive of choice
- Greeting and sentiment stamps
Clue #2 cut cardstock color A 8-1/2 x -5-1/2 score @ 4-1/4. This card base opens on the bottom and the fold is on the top.
Clue #3 cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White card stock for the inside
Clue #4 The large background layer is patterned paper 4" x 5-1/4" (subtle pattern). Then adhere it to the card base.
Clue #5 Cut Basic White cardstock 4-1/4" x 2-1/4" mat it to 4-1/2" x 2-1/2" cardstock color A.
Clue #6 Patterned Paper 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" (the main print) mat it to 2-3/4" x 2-3/4" cardstock color A.
Clue #7 Basic White 1" x 1." Rotate so that it is in a diamond position and stamp greeting on it. Then mat to 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" cardstock color A.
Clue #8 Cut cardstock color B 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" and mat it to cardstock color A 2-3/4" x 2-3/4"
Clue #9 Tape the matted Basic White layer first; about 1/2" from each edge and the bottom and a smidge closer to the left edge of the patterned paper.
Clue #10 Adhere the color B matted layer. Rotate the square so that it is a diamond shape. The top and bottom points are just a hair below the edge of the patterned paper layer, with the left point touching the edge of the patterned paper.
Clue #11 Adhere the matted patterned paper next. Align the left edge so that it is touching the far edge of the diamond on left side of the top and bottom points. You should see about 1/4” of the white layer below and about 1/2” of white to the right.
Clue #12 Orient the 1” square of white cardstock and mat to 1-1/4” square color A. Adhere with dimensionals so that the left tip of the diamond is inside the larger diamond shape, leaving an equal amount of the larger diamond as a border on the left side.
