Make it Monday # 30

Published by Makeesha under 3-D Items, Make it Monday, Pyramid cards

Hey you,

Well I had a request for a tutorial to make a Pyramid card (hey Leanne!) which I showed you back in December. I was shown how to make these at the Stamp Camp I went to for the Stamparoos team by the very talented Susan Joyce. I am not 100% sure if they are Sue’s creation or if she got them from somewhere else, I will have to clarify that, but they are fun and cute all the same.

So here is the Make it Monday for you!

Pyramid Card                  

Materials Required:

 

Step 1:

 

Cut 3 pieces of cardstock (two the same colour and one different) the measure 4 inches by 4 inches.

Step 2:

 

Score the 3 pieces right down one centre from one point to the bottom point

Step 3:

 

Take the two pieces that are the same colour, and place them with the two scored points meeting each other at the top, so that they make a point.

Step 4:

 

Take the other coloured cardstock and line it up with the scored line perfectly meeting the top point.

Step 5:

 

Then take that bottom left hand piece and lay it on top of the other coloured square.

Step 6:

 

Fold the cardstock at each of the scored lines. It will all fit into one another and make it a pyramid.

Step 7:

 

Tape the sides down, and it will stand up like so.

Step 8:

 

Take a 3 ¾ inch square piece of DSP and cut it completely in half so you have two pieces like this:

 

Step 9:

 

Adhere one of the triangles onto the front of your pyramid

Step 10:

 

Decorate the front.

Another sample:

 

Here I have used Tangerine tango, Pacific blue, and the Good morning Sunshine DSP, along with the Whale wishes stamp set.

I can’t believe that this is number 30!!! Where has all that time gone :) I hope you have enjoyed viewing these each and every week!

Have a goodie…. 

Love Keesh
