Sweet Wishes Side Step Template/Tutorial

8:09 AM | Posted by Chris Olsen, Glowbug | | Edit Post

Happy Hump Day!! I hope you are all doing well!! It is hard to believe it already the middle of the week. Where does the time go. This week I have been busy doing yard work with all the falling leaves! It has been a blessing to have such nice weather to work in thus far.

Anywho, today I am popping in to share a side step card using the Sweet Christmas Wishes from Our Daily Bread Designs and the ODBD Window Die

Card Recipe:
Stamps Used: ODBD Sweet Christmas Wishes
Dies: ODBD Window Die custom made by Spellbinders, Spellbinders Scalloped and classic circles
Paper: Die Cuts with a View Holiday, Scraps from Stampin up in So Saffron, Bitter Chocolate, Neenah White, forest green CS
Punches: Martha Stewart Daisy Edge Punch,, twig punch
Embossing folders: Soft Swirls
Ribbon: Stampin Up Re Striped Grosgrain ribbon, Bow Easy
Accessories: Polar white flower soft, gold baubles

I made this side step design when playing with my sisters Stampin Up sets in Boston. Jeanne showed Grace and I step by step. Since many of you did not have the opportunity to be there, I thought it would be fun for me to include a template. Please excuse my extremely novice attempts to draw it digitally for you. I simply do not have the right programs. LOL! The template needs to be rotated.

Since the text is somewhat hard to read, here are the measurements for the score/cutting marks going across: 1 inch, 1inch, 3 1/2 inches, 3 1/2 inches, 1 inch, and 1 inch. The card stock is cut 4 1/2 by 11 inches. The dotted lines are score marks and the solid lines are cutting marks.

At the end of each round read out the cumulative scores.
The decline of the East side blues scene was disheartening,
but, it also gave rise to the need for a fresh start, which came in
the form of the next blues-only venue, Antone's, founded by the late Clifford Antone, during the summer of 1975.
