Happy birthday waterfall card tutorial

This Waterfall card is one of my favorite cards to make and give. Today at my card class this was one of the cards we made.
Check out the video below to see it in action.  Keep scrolling on how to make one of your own.



You start with:


  • a Calypso Coral card base, measuring 4-1/4" X 11"
  • a Wild Wasabi strip 1"X 4-1/4"
  • the waterfall part 1-3/4" X 9-3/4" also scored at 2", 2-3/4", 3-1/2" and 4-1/4"
  • (4) 2" squares


 Fold the waterfall part at the 4 score lines so it looks like this:
 Adhere the green strip to the end of the waterfall part, centering it.
 Line the waterfall part to the fold of the card base.
 Use the 1/16" punch to punch the green strip to the card base.
 Stamp the 4 squares with your message.
 Adhere the first square to the top fold.
Pull the waterfall part and place adhesive after the second score line.
   Adhere the second square.
 Repeat for the remainder of the squares.


Test the waterfall part out and see it flip.

St. Patrick's Day treats

Hello,
I am having so much fun creating goodies for my friend Andrea and her son's classmates.  It gives me the chance to relive my teaching days when I enjoyed making treats for the kids for each special occasion.
Remember the treats I made for Valentine's Day?  I posted about the Valentine Day glow sticks I made on this previous post.
Here are the samples I made for her to choose from.  
Yes, they were inspired by Pinterest.
The first one is a Lucky Penny with a glittery green bow.  I was thinking if the treat needed to be something without candy, this would be a cute alternative.
The second sample (the one she chose) is a Tic Tac Toe card with a small ziploc bag of green and white TicTacs.  I wanted to find some M&M's but couldn't find just green ones, and didn't want to search through an assorted bag of them. I guess I could also use Jelly Bellys too.
Do you like the little ziplocs with the shamrocks?  I've had them for a LONG time and am happy to FINALLY use them.
 I also stamped the envelope with "Happy St. Patrick's Day" and with some green shamrocks.
This is the bag of 22 of the treats, complete with tissue paper and green curling ribbon.  How does it look?
Thank you for checking in!
