I have loved making this type of card and they are so easy, I have used Follow Your Art suite to make this rocker card.
The finished card fits into a 5 x 7 inches envelope. This card can be adjusted to any size i.e. larger or smaller the key is that from the bottom of the card to the top must not be bigger than the envelope size, in this case it measures 5 inches. Measurements given here will be for what I used.
- Cut a circle in thick Whisper White cardstock measuring 7 inches in diameter, fold in half and burnish, the card will now rock on its own
- DSP layer cut a circle measuring 6 inches diameter, fold in half and cut along this line (you can use both pieces one for the front and one for the back)
- Cut a circle in thick Whisper White cardstock measuring 4 inches diameter, adhere to the card base centrally ensuring that when flat it is does not exceed 5 inches
- DSP layer cut a circle measuring 3.75 inches diameter, adhere centrally to the card front
- Stamp the pens and pencils in Gray Granite, colour as required, die cut these together with the paperclip in silver foil
- Stamp the sentiment using Night of Navy (stamped off once) and die cut with the stitched layering circle
- Numbers die cut in the retired large numbers in Night of Navy and coated in Wink of Stella
- Adhere all these die cuts to the card front using dimensionals, the paper clip was adhered to the sentiment and number using liquid glue
When adding images to this type of card remember that each side must balance so when the card stands it is straight and will then rock easily.
