(New Post) Sea Turtle Tent Card

 Sea Turtle Tent Card

Aren't those little baby sea turtles just the cutest!! 

The Mint Macaron Color is retiring, so I needed to make one last card using it! 

Directions:

Cut the Mint Macaron Card Stock to 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" and score at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4".

The hinges that pop-up the art piece are Mint Macaron C/S cut to 2" x 2" and scored at 1", cut 2 of these. 

Using Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue, attach the hinges on each side of the 2 1/8" score line with the opening of the hinge facing out. This creates a pop-out mechanism. 

Cut 2 pieces of the Country Gingham Designer Series Paper to 1 7/8" x 5 1/4" and attach it to the front of the card covering up the glued down hinge. Don't glue the pop-up hinge portion.

Cut a piece of Mint Macaron C/S to 1 1/4" x 5 1/4" and emboss using the new Basics 3D Embossing Folder. Attach using Dimensionals to the right hand side of the card on the inside. This creates a "stopper" for the card front to pop-up and stay open. 

Cut a piece of Basic White C/S to 2 3/4" x 5 1/4". Stamp some of the little fish using Mint Macaron Ink along the bottom. Attach to the inside of the card using Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue.

For the art panel, cut a piece of Basic White C/S to 2 3/4" x 2 3/4". 

Using the Sea Turtle Stamp Set that is a double sided set, stamp the turtle body in Mint Macaron Ink, stamped off one time for a lighter shade. Do this three times across the layer.

Flip the stamp over and using full strength Mint Macaron Ink, stamp the turtle detail over top of the body. 

Stamp the sentiment using Memento Black Ink and the Lighting The Way Stamp Set. I thought this was the perfect sentiment to go with this card!

Add some Iridescent Pearls. 

Attach this art panel using Dimensionals to a Mint Macaron C/S layer cut to 2 7/8" x 2 7/8".

Add some glue to both of the hinges and attach this panel to them. 

Try this fun fold for yourself and have fun!!

Remember that Mint Macaron and the Country Gingham Designer Series Paper are retiring!
