Center Step Card

Hello,
Hope you are having a great day and preparing for the weekend.  Praying for the people in Hawaii as the hurricane approach.  Praying for all the people experiencing flooding and fire.
I'm going to share the steps to making a Center Step Card today and hope you would have fun in making one for yourself to send to someone in the future.
Let us make a center step card together:

Step 1: Cut a piece of cardstock for your base, 5 ½” wide by 11” long.
Step 2: Line cardstock up in a paper trimmer so that the edge of the card is at the 1” mark.

              Position the cutting blade at 1” and cut from the 1” to the 6 ½”.
              Flip card over and do the same on the other side.

Step 3: Place cardstock onto scoring tool and score along the long side of the card from the
              Edge to the cut line at 1”, 2” and 6 ½”.
               Flip card and repeat on opposite edge of card.

Step 4: Score between cut lines at 5 ½”.
Step 5: Fold at the score lines.  The first, third and center score lines are mountain folds.
              The second score line is a valley fold.
               Reinforce score lines to make folds crisp.
Step 6: Stamp and decorate your card as desired.
Thanks for viewing with me today.
Love,
Lois
