Mango Melody Stampin’ Write Marker (BRIGHTS STAMPIN' WRITE MARKERS 147157)

Paper Trimmer (152392)

Take Your Pick Tool (144107)

Here’s how I made it:

I started by taking a 6” x 8” piece of /basic Black cardstock. Scoring this at 2”, 4” & 6”.

Rotating this 90 degrees I then aligned at 2” and used the Take Your Pick Tool to mark on the 2” & 6” scorelines.

I then scored from the mark down to the corner to create the following pattern.

After scoring I then folded the 2”, 4” & 6” scoreline into mountains & valleys and burnished these with the Bone Folder. I then pushed the triangles into valley folds and again burnished with the Bone Folder.

Using Tear & Tape I adhered the middle sections together.

Next I marked 1 3/4" down from each end of the DSP, making sure to mark on the same side.

Tip: If the DSP has a pattern that has an image that needs to remain upright make sure you consider this when making your marks.

I then aligned the marks with the corners and cut.

Using Multipurpose Liquid Glue I adhered the DSP to the card front.

With the card base complete I stamped the Hive in Mango Melody and the Bees in Memento Ink. I also Stamped the sentiment in Memento on the centre of the Hive.
