I love fun folds, so I had to participate in this blog hop!
I hope you're being inspired by all the fun fold cards. I found directions for a Center Step Card on SplitCoastStampers.com, but it made a 5-1/2" X 5-1/2" card. I took their idea and created a card that is a standard A2 card, 5-1/2" X 4-1/4". If you place your embellishments within the 5-1/2" X 4-1/4" you can use a medium Stampin' Up! envelope for this card.
Here's a link to the Split Coast Stamper tutorial: Center Step Card Tutorial - Splitcoaststampers. They include pictures and a video.
I'm not quite ready for winter yet, so I made a summer card using the Peaceful Cabin stamp set and coordinating Cabin dies. Both are available starting 3 August 2021 in the mini catalog.
I am a visual learner, so I made a quick video for you to learn how I cut and scored my card base. I think I forgot to tell you that I started with an 8-1/2" X 5-1/2" card base.
