 This card is similar to a tri-fold card.  The unique feature is that a flag pops up on a shelf in the middle when opened.




Here are some other photos to guide you.


























The following two pieces are not attached together.  They are double sided cardstock so feel for the cuts in one of them and they proceed with the directions.

These 2 pieces look the same except for one thing:  there are slits in the patterned paper that allow you to fold it back, as shown below.


The base of the card looks like this when folded:


There are slits in the center of the card base so you can pop the center up when you close the card.  Be sure to use your bone folder on the card base - it is very heavy cardstock (110#).  That pop up forms the shelf that the flag site on.

This is the card with the patterned paper added.  The folded up sections for the wide and the narrow pieces fit on the "shelf" in the center of the card.  The picture following this one shows what the two patterned pieces look like before they are attached to the inside of the card.



Finish the card by adhering the flag on the shelf, putting the inside matted sentiment on the inside of the card, and finishing the front with the two matted and tilted squares and the round sentiment with the doily behind it.  I trimmed the doily but you might want it larger.

That’s about it.  If I’ve thoroughly confused you, don’t worry … I’m going to demonstrate it when you pick up your kits.
