Good morning!
I’ve taken the day off work as I have multiple medical appointments scheduled today. Just routine women’s stuff; nothing serious. So between appointments I decided to go ahead and post my card that I have created this week. You probably won’t hear from me this weekend. I saw a video for this card on a facebook page to which I belong. So, I can’t take credit for it. (Wish I could!) I fell in love with it immediately, so I wanted to get one made and share it as soon as I could. It’s called the never ending card because you can keep opening it and opening it and opening it at…
Here it is!

Back to the beginning…

Ready to start all over again…

So, I know you want to know how to make this card. Hope you can follow my directions!
Step 1: Cut two pieces of card stock each measuring 5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″. (See photo below.)

Step 2: For the top portion of your card, use your paper trimmer and score each long edge at 1-1/16″. Do this by placing the 4-1/4″ edge at the top of your paper trimmer. (See photo below.)

Step 3: After making both score lines along the long edges of the card, turn your card stock so that a long edge (5 – 1/2″ edge) is at the top of your paper trimmer and cut it in half at 2-3/4″. You now have two pieces of card stock measuring 2-1/8″ x 5-1/2″ that you will use for the top of your card. (See photo below.)

Step 4: For the bottom portion of your card, take the other 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″ piece of card stock and place a long edge (5-1/2″ edge) at the top of your paper trimmer. Score along each narrow edge at 1-3/8″. (See photo below.)

Step 5: After making your score lines along the short edges of your card stock, flip the card stock so a 4 1/4″ edge is along the top of your paper trimmer. Cut the card stock in half at 2-1/8″. You will now have two piece of card stock measuring 2-1/8″ by 5-1/2″. (See photo below.)

Step 6: Fold along all score lines in both directions.
Step 7: Lay both of the top pieces on the table in front of you, making sure to line up the score lines. Add a piece of sticky strip to each corner as shown in the photo below.

Step 8: Attach both bottom pieces as shown below.

Step 9: After both bottom pieces are attached, flip the card over. This is the top (front) of the card.

Step 10: Open the card and smooth down the folds with a bone folder. In the next photo below, I turned the card 1/4 turn so the 5-1/2″ edge is at the top of the photo.


Step 11: Continue opening the card and smoothing folds. Eventually, as you continue to open the card, you will return to the front of the card.

Step 12: Decorate the card any way you choose.
If you have any questions about this, please feel free to email me. Some day soon I will begin doing video tutorials instead of photo tutorials. I just need a little more time in the day, and I need to learn how to do it. I’m sure it isn’t difficult.
Hope you enjoyed your visit here today. Until next time…
Happy Stamping!
