My tutorial today shows how I made these
squash cards to hold some holiday Euros
for two of my grandsons holidays.
This is my first attempt at this and I really made it look difficult lol.
But I got there in the end.
I had no video to follow so was kinda working blind.
I have made the video in two parts.
You can watch the squash card here
and the decoration part here
Measurements needed to follow along
Card base - 8 1/2" x 4 1/8"
score at 4 2/8"
DSP for inside - 8" x 8"
DSP for front - 3 7/8" x 4"
Inside sentiment
Navy card - 2 7/8" x 2"
Whisper white - 1 6/8" x 2 5/8"
