I CASEd a card from Mindy Gray to make this fun fold. It looks like a Stair Step Card, but it is made from two base pieces instead of one.
The two pieces create a very solid base. Below is a traditional stair step card for comparison.
In the traditional version, the single base piece is cut to create the different planes, and there is no solid panel behind the focal point. Click here for the post and video for the traditional version.
I think the faux version is easier because it uses simple rectangular pieces. I also like the fact that the designer paper pieces measure 3″ x 4″, so you can substitute Memories & More cards if you wish. I also used a 3″ x 4″ piece of Basic White on the back for my greeting.
Dimensions are as follows…
- Pool Party 3 1/4″ x 8 1/2″, scored at 5 1/2″
- Pool Party 4 1/4″ x 9″, scored at 1 1/4″, 2 1/2″, 5 3/4″
- Designer Paper (2) 3″ x 4″ and (1) 1″ x 4″
- Real Red (2) 3 1/8″ x 4 1/8″ and (1) 1 1/8″ x 4 1/8″
- Basic White 3″ x 4″
