Top Tip
Experiment first with die-cutting, checking it won’t cut through three layers. Use a heavy cardstock, like the Ink Me!, in between. This method also works for circles or have the arch in the middle

Step by step 1 Take the white cardstock, scoring at 11cm from each side, 88
fold left-hand side forward and right-hand side back, forming a concertina card blank. 2 Open out the right-hand side leaving the left-hand side folded. Put a cardstock under the fold so the die doesn’t cut through both sides. Add die one to side with one edge overlapping the fold, tape in place and die-cut, trim off the top on the fold line. 3 Repeat process on the other side, forming two arches, with a rectangle in the middle; trim
the top of the rectangle panel to about 15cm and round top corners. 4 Cut gold matts to fit each of the three panels, arches with die one, and paper matts slightly smaller, arches with die two. Adhere layers, making sure card will still fold. 5 For the central topper, use frame image from concept card, trim down frame and mount on gold Mirri. 6 Add a small piece of border and sentiments on 3D foam pads.
