Sweetest Thing - Never Ending Card




It's been a while since I've made a Never Ending Card and I thought the Sweetest Thing stamp set and the How Sweet It Is DSP would be perfect for making one as a birthday card.  Here are my written instructions after following a video of Diane Hutchison on Crafts by the Bow:

1.     Cut two pieces of Coastal Cabana cardstock at 4-1/4” x 5-1/2”.  Score one of them at 1-3/8” on each side of the 5-1/2” side using the Simply Scored Scoring Tool.  Turn to the 4-1/4” side and cut in half at 2-1/8” on the Stampin’ Trimmer.  These will be marked 1 and 2.
2.    On the other piece of Coastal Cabana, on the 4-1/4” side, score 1-1/16” on each side.  Turn on the 5-1/2” side and cut at 2-3/4” on the Stampin’ Trimmer.  These will be marked 3 and 4

                                                                   
3.    Use two rows of about 1” each of tear and tape at the top left of 3 and top right of 4.  Repeat at the bottom left of 3 and bottom right of 4 with two rows of Tear and Tape.


4.    Remove the tape backing.  Make sure that 3 and 4 are even before placing 1 at the top of 3 and 4.  Once it’s in place, 2 should be next at the bottom.  You may need to trim on the edge if not even.  Use the Bone Folder to crease each score line as you fold and unfold.
5.    Now you are ready to add Designer Paper cut at the following dimensions:
You need (8) of 2” x 2-5/8” DSP of different designs.
You need (4) of 2” x 1-1/4” DSP of the same design. 
You need (4) of 7/8” x 2-5/8” of the same design.
You need (8) of 7/8” x 1-1/4” of two different designs.
6.    Now using the Jar of Sweets Framelit Dies and the How Sweet It Is DSP, die cut the candy jars in the Big Shot.  Use Paper Snips to cut out candy and attach with Adhesive.
7.    Die cut the small Rectangle Framelits and ink up the sentiment “Sweets for You” and another one with “Happy Birthday” in Coastal Cabana ink.
8.    Add three Glitter Enamel Dots to the front of the card.
