Something Saturday - Louvre Windows Card

 Hi there Creators

Today I thought I'd show you how to create this Louvre Windows card (little bit of trivia, did you know Louvres were invented back in the middle ages around 1500 years ago?, they were made of wood and put on pitched roofs to let out smoke, and increase circulation)😃

Anyway moving on.... I saw these kind of cards at the Picture to Page show, and of course the company selling them had dies to cut out all the components, but I figured I could make it work my own way.

And so Voila: I made this card up before the video using the Celebratory Sips Designer paper (see all the links below)

and here it is opened up (little difficult to photograph!)

So this is the bit that's obscured above!

Then in the video this is the card I made up, this time using the Beautiful Gallery Designer Paper (again links below)

Beautiful Gallery, Stampin' Up!

and the middle..... as you can see I used a bit more of the designer paper to cut out and add to the middle sections

and again the obscured bit

Measurements:
You'll need 3 pieces of A6 card (10.5cm x 14.8cm) 
cut one in 1/2 so you have 2 pieces of 10.5x 7.4cm and score 1 end of each 1cm in (see my mud map workings then if all is as clear as mud, feel free to watch the video 🤣
You'll also need 2 pieces to pop inside the windows I made these 10.2cm x 6cm and 10.2cm x 6.5cm

I hope this inspires you to have a go too.
