This card looks like this when you are opening it up!

Notice how I took pieces of DSP,

cut them & then attached each of them to the card base.

Here is the pattern on how I cut the DSP strips.

It is so easy!

5 1/4 x 6" DSP

cut a 2 3/4" piece; 1 1/4" piece & that leaves you a 2" piece!

This is what it looks like when standing up!

Cute huh!

You all know that z folds are on of my favorites!

I die cut a tag & 3 stars using the Beautiful Balloon Dies.
