So, what did you think of the center step card? I have to say that I fell involve with the concept. Step cards are not overly complicated to make and the options are wide. So this week we are going to make a side step card. I had given a quick peek in last weeks video, which you can find here, in case you missed it.
This card is made using the Symbols of Fortune gorgeous specialty designer series paper. If you are like me and can’t buy it all…then make the most of what you already have. I combined the paper with the Eden’s garden stamp and die set, which you can buy as a bundle and save 10%. I made a video tutorial that you can access below, as well as a PDF tutorial with a template.

- For the base: cardstock in Evening Ever Green that measures 7 1/2″ x 11″
