Another Tag Punch Concertina Card for a 40th Birthday–and 2 Tutorials….

Here is another version of the Scallop Tag Concertina Card we made at the last Jems Quarterly Training Day.

Julie stepped it up to make this gorgeous Mothers Day Card, and as this version was just in my favourite colourways….. I just had to CASE immediately and make one for a friends special birthday being celebrated this week – Happy Birthday Alison! Now everyone knows how old you are!!!

So I mentioned 2 tutorials….

Firstly here is Julies Video Tutorial on making the Scallop Tag Topper Punch Concertina Card – thank you Julie! It is a truly BEAUTIFUL card in the flesh……

And secondly I have added the measurements at the end of this post for the box envelope to post it in. This card has more bulk when folded up than the original card we made so it requires a 1” deep box envelope. So my Envelope Punch Board was out again – a quick calculation – and a box made so it was all good to go…..

Here is a view of the folded card.

And here it is at full stretch….

And here are some close-ups…..

And here are the dimensions for a 1” deep box envelope made using the envelope punch board….

Cardstock/Paper Size 7  1/2” Square

First Score 2 5/8”

Second Score 4 1/8”

Go to my earlier post here for the box envelope dimensions for the original card (3/4” deep) and for more general details on making these….

And there you have it… but more of these cards coming soon…. Baby Girl card being needed today…. they really are so truly stunning in the flesh….. I just can’t help myself…..
