Hi Stamping Friends,
We made this Side Step card at my class yesterday and I said I would try to post a tutorial on how to make the card base.
I would like to mention that all my score lines were done with Simply Scored Scoring Tool. This would make a great Christmas present!!!
Step 1) Start with Cherry Cobbler 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ card stock. Score at 4-1/4″ like you would for a normal card.
Step 2) Slide the short side into the paper cutter at 3-1/2″. Cut from 2-1/4″ down to 7-1/4″. Note: Do not cut right from the top.

Step 3: Slide the long edge into the paper cutter at 1-1/4″ and score down to the cut line. Move the paper to 2-1/4″ and score to the cut line. Repeat this process at 3-1/4″ and 6-1/4″. You can see the score lines that were already done on my sample.
Step 4: Fold your paper into mountain and valley folds. The center score line(4-1/4″) becomes a mountain fold. 1-1/4″ score line is a mountain, 2-1/4″ a valley, 3-1/4″ mountain, 4-1/4″ valley and 6-1/4″ mountain.
If this is too confusing, come to Super Fun Stamp night this Friday at 7:00 and I’ll show you how to do it.
Here’s the recipe for the card:
