Cute As A Bug diorama card

This card ended up being so easy…once I figured out which score lines to fold which way (mountain or valley) and what areas to glue!  And with the darling DSP called Cute As A Bug, it turned out absolutely adorable! 

First, the card base is 4.25”x11” and scored at .5”,  1”, 5.25”, 5.5”, 5.75”, 10” and 10.5”. That’s a ton of little score lines so close together! The score line at 5.5” is the folding line for your card. The widest panel is the focal panel - adhere your DSP here  (in my case I used a red and white checkered DSP). Next, die cut your window opening (I used a circle die). The DSP you choose to peek through this circle gets adhered inside next.

Now you’re ready to actually glue the front and back of the card base together but ONLY along two thin scored strips. Fold the card at the 5.5” score line — this is your card’s left edge. Apply glue along the thin scored area along the 5.5” score line, gluing the front and back of the card together. Do the same along the thin scored area on the right edge of the card. Add your strips of DSP along each of the folded panels as desired and decorate with fussy cut images from the DSP and / or sentiments.Much eaasier done than described in writing! Hope you try this sweet design…
