Whale See Through Card

 In this video, I show how easy it is to make a cute "see through" card.  The Whale of a Time Designer Series Paper makes it super easy to create this fun card. (If you are viewing this in your email - you may need to click on the title to load the video.)

Below is the card that I made in the video.  I changed it a little from the one I saw on Pinterest (by Mary Anne Cowan) by embossing the card stock that shows on the front of the card using the Seabed 3D embossing folder.


How to  make this card:
(Watch video for better explanation)
  • 4-1/4 x 11 Pool Party card stock, scored in half at 5-1/2
  • Emboss the card front with the Sea Bed embossing folder, then cut off 1" from the bottom and save for making this card ; cut off another 3-1/2 piece of the embossed front and set aside for another card
  • Use Tear & Tape adhesive to attach the window sheet to the remaining 1" embossed flap at the top of the card and then to the 1" piece that was cut off, making sure the bottom piece will be flush to the bottom of the card
  •  Cut Designer Series Paper 4-1/4 x 5-7/16.  Stamp fish or other sealife on the DSP (optional) and attach to the inside of the card
  • Cut a small turtle from another piece of the DSP and attach with a glue dot to the inside of the card.
  • Cut seaweed from Granny Apple Green and Pretty Peacock card stock using Smooth Sailing dies, and attach to the bottom of the card front using glue dots
  • Cut or punch a whale from DSP and attach to the front of the card (on the window sheet) using glue dots
  • Stamp a greeting on a 3/4" strip of Basic White card stock; cut to size and attach to the bottom right of the card front
