Hello! Wendy here with a step by step tutorial for you all showing how to create a Waterfall Card
First off I decided which YNS sets I wanted to use, I chose the super cute NEWLY released
Christmas Critters and the adorable Holiday Snow Globe set
1. Start by cutting 4 pieces of white cardstock in 2″ x 2″ squares
2. then cut 4 more sized at 2.25″ squares in colored cardstock
3. now you get to stamp and color your images and assemble these squares
4. next up you will need a piece of cardstock cut at 9″ x 2.25″
5. score this piece at 2, 2 3/4, 3 1/2 and 4 1/4
6. the base of your card measures at 5.25″ x 8″ folded in half
7. you will then use a piece of colored cardstock measuring .75″ x 4″ which will be adhered to the front of your card base but only at the edges. I used brads and tape to secure it
8. Next up tape your scored 9″ x 2.25″ piece to the front strip tucking the rest behind the front strip..this allows your cardstock to be pulled up and down to create the waterfall
9. attach your 9″ x 2.25″strip to the horizontal strip you just attached to the card front.
To do this, slide the longest section of the 9″ x 2.25″ between the horizontal strip and the card, making sure to center it in the middle of your card. Line up the very edge of the scored end of the strip with bottom of the horizontal strip and attach with tape
10. now add your stamped and colored images only to the space in between the scored lines
11. this is where you can place a sentiment, I also like to add a piece of ribbon to allow for pulling the strip thru easier.
I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and will try your hand at making your own.
