Side Stair-Step Card & Tutorial

This turned out to be my favorite of all three.  I just love the way it turned out.  First, here is a photo of the the Side Stair-Step collapsed:

And another to better see the stairs:



Supplies:  Zipidee Paper Pack (Cranberry, Black, Honey, Indian Corn, White Daisy CS); Black, Indian Corn, Honey & Cranberry Exclusive Inks; Thrill Ride & Ticket to Ride Stamp Sets; Black Waxy Flax; Clear Button; Fancy Fuzz Borders.

Instructions:

1.  Start with a 6" x 9" piece of paper.  Determine which side you want your side-rise to be on, then on the "back" side of the paper, draw your line lightly at 2". 

2  Next, on the 4" side of the line, score at 1", 2", 3-1/2", 5" and 7".  On the penciled line at 2", put in your paper cutter and cut from the 1" score to the 7" score.

3.  For the side-rise, rather than score it a t 4 1/2", I fold the 2" side in half by lining up the bottom edges of the 6" side. Then I crease everything with bone folder. (You can click picture above to see a larger view).



4.  Add stamping and embellishments.
