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!

I was so excited that I created a video for you, however in the video I do say that I'll give you the measurements. Therefore to create the card, Start with A4 sized cardstock, cut it in 1/2 at 14.8cm, this will give you A5, (which when scored in 1/2 at 10.5cm will give you a standard card), however for this you'll cut it at 10.5cm, which will give you an A6 piece.  This when scored in 1/2 at 7.4cm creates your mini card. To create the envelope I have used the Envelope Punch Board , which you can use to create so many different sizes of envelopes! but it ...
