Picture Perfect Birthday Class Favourite....

I think a new phase has entered a couple of my card classes... as we go small!!

So this simple dinky little 3" Square card to pop in one of the carryover 3" Square Envelopes... was one of the Picture Perfect Party class favourites this week... and this was the other one out of interest...

And I had to laugh as these are both just stamped... and before Christmas I had promised them faithfully that I would use more papers as per their request.... lol! Like that turnabout myself!!

And I also laughed at the fact that these were stated to be the favourites... but (as usual) it was the 2 simple but Fancy Fold ones that had their attention (as they flicked them back and forth proudly) at class close-up...

Picture Perfect Party Pop Out Swing Card for Fancy Fold Friday

Wow... that's a tongue twister! Think I may have to come up with a new name in class!!

So this card tutorial has proven very popular for the last 6 months in the 6" form... so thought I should remake a 5 1/2" square one using A4 (or US Letter size) card... and show you where that tutorial is...

Though I have had to make the central square cut out differently this time... as sadly those larger Square Framelits are no longer available.... so I also took the opportunity to make the border slightly wider....

So here is how I cut out that central square (which I did after I stuck the paper onto the card)... the rest of the details are as per the original tutorials...

Using the trimmer- go in 1”/2.5 cm from each side – aka line up on the Top Bar at 1”/2.5cm (or 4 1/2"/11.5cm as relevant as you turn it round!) on the Top Bar and cut from 1" to 4 1/2" (2.5 to 11.5cm) … on all 4 sides...
