peekaboo forest card




base card (the back panel is White A2 cardstock 5 1/4 x 4 1/4- 
with 5 1/4 on top, score 3/4 on both left and right sides
sponge dauber or using blending brushes to create the blue sky in the back ground.
In the video I forgot to do this step until after the front was attached which made it a bit difficult...


front top is extra thick white cardstock 6 1/2 x 1
front bottom is extra thick white cardstock 6 1/2 x 3/4
score both at 3/4, 1 3/4. 3 3/4 and 4 3/4 
that's the white layer under the green leaves and grass you can see above. 

glue both sides to the base panel with the flaps on each side- make sure it lays flat when you move the card to the left or to the right


old olive cardstock for grass and treetop 5 1/2x 2v 1/4 diecut the grass die between and 1 1/2 inch area ; use leaf dies to pop it up at the same time. cut the edges to separate the pieces and glue down the flaps on each side - (only glue onto the white pieces and not the entire back of the green panel so it does not stick to the back of the card) 

stamp wood pieces (tree truck and branch) and critters on white scarp piece
color in as desired- some brown- pecan pie, bronze etc
critters in crumbcake, penca pie etc. diecut out and attach to the front as desired. 
make sure when flat it will fit inside an A2 envelope.- you can have one side or the other pop out but not both if you want it to fit.
