Christi's Creative Crew: Center Step Card

I am so glad that the SAILING HOME Stamp Set is returning to the New Annual Catalog!
HOWEVER - the COME SAIL AWAY Designer Paper is NOT returning.

Well, of course you can use the stamp set without the Designer Paper - but - if you love it as much as I do, you will want to get your hands on some before it is too late.

Isn't this a fun fold with the center easel? It is called a CENTER STEP CARD. It was inspired by Lynn Dunn. You can make this card for any occasion, like a masculine birthday, Father's Day, Thinking of you, Graduation, whatever you need really for the guy in your life.

Want to make this style card for yourself? Here are the dimensions

Night of Navy 5 ½ x 8 ½

Balmy Blue 3 x 4 ¼ (center)

Dsp (2) @ 1 ¼ x 4 (stripe for sides)

(2) @ 1 7/8 x 2 ¼ (sailboats for the center)

1 3/8” Circle

Stamp compass on Sahara Sand with Night of Navy Ink

Open up your card and put it in your paper trimmer at 1 ½” and cut down to the score line

Now slide it over to the 4” mark and cut down to the score line

Now take just that center piece and line it up at 2 1/8” and score – this will be your easel.

Be sure to pop up your sentiment with Stampin' Dimensionals so that it will hold your easel.
