This is a fancy folds “motion card”. The front flap lifts like a Venetian blind — it’s so much fun. I use several products featured during the 2022 SALE-a-brations offering.

- Score — .5″ increments — along the 5.25″ length

- Mark with pencil .25″ from the 5.25″ edge to align where to punch holes

- To create the flower medallion use the LAYERING OVALS dies (retired) with Basic White (stamped image) and scalloped Petal Pink layer

- Cut 36″ of coordinating ribbon (Soft Sea Foam Seam Binding Ribbon)
- Do not recommend using the Glittered Organza ribbon. It works well in the tutorial, but the ribbon is very stiff and abrasive. It will cause more wear and tear on the Venetian blind than a softer ribbon.
- Knot or add beads to the end of the ribbon to avoid fraying

- Cut 36″ of coordinating ribbon (Soft Sea Foam Seam Binding Ribbon)
