I have seen these cards all over the place lately and some of you guys asked me to try my hand at it. It took a while to get it like I like it but now that I have I hope you guys like it.
The scoring is a bit of a bug to mess with but if you follow my same dimensions you should be okay.
You will need:
1 piece of 11 1/2 by 4 inch piece of paper or cardstock. I used cardstock.
After you do the angled cut I show in the video, score it like this:
1, 2.5, 3 1/4, 4 3/4, 5 3/4, 7 1/4, 8, 9 1/2, 10 1/4
The best way to make this card is to watch the video, it is too hard to explain it!
I can't wait to see what you make of it!

I love the card and the video. I am loving the card stock that is used and I am wondering where I can get it or what the name of it is.

Loved this video and your measurements. I agree, the “earlier” Cards I made with fewer folds were “eh” and disappointing. I like your measurements and use of 3 different patterned papers. Thanks so much for sharing!!!!
