Waterfall Cards

Hello Scrappers and Friends! This weekend a friend on Facebook asked me if I had ever done waterfall cards and I said no, I had no clue what they even looked like. She told me to check out Dawn5377's video on YouTube. So when I got time to craft I looked it up and I was amazed at how easy they were to make! They look like they would be complicated but I did a box card last weekend and that was challenging, this waterfall card was a piece of cake compared to that. I have done one for my dad for Father's Day but I'm only showing the other one today. Ill post about the Father's Day one once I give it to my dad.

All you really need is:

*Adhesive
*Paper Trimmer/ with measurements on it and that scores (or do it all by hand)
*Paper
*Embellishments (optional)
*3 Brads (or 2 brads and 1 staple)
*Snip of ribbon

I cut mine all the same way Dawn did in her video. The only difference I did with my cards is I took ribbon and put a little hole in it for a brad and used a brad to adhere it to the card to pull on instead of a staple.

Cuts:

*Background 4 1/2" x 5 1/2"
*Designed Paper on front of background 4"x5 1/4"
*Little Squares(front) 4@ 1 3/4"x1 3/4"
*Little Squares(back) 4@ 2"x2"
*Strip that goes on front to hold Waterfall 1"x4 1/4"
*Waterfall 2"x9"
           Score @ 2", 2 3/4", 3 1/2", 4 1/4"

To know how to put it all together watch Dawn's Video. I might do my own video here soon too but until I do her video is great to go by and learn.

Hope you enjoyed the card! Have a Splendid Crafty Time!
