On the side you scored at 1/2” remove a tiny slither, it helps the box section lay down when folded) all you have to do then is cut your chosen aperture and decorate.<br />Have fun, I’m sure you will come up with some great designs. xxBrenda https://www.blogger.com/profile/14121800821999942200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-27156895307654669182018-09-02T17:01:28.330+01:002018-09-02T17:01:28.330+01:00Hello again

Definitely not what I want this morning.<br /><br />Thank you MICHELE for a wonderful CC this week and I'm looking forward to see what you have planned for tomorrow.<br /><br />The display boards look beautiful with all the cards displayed and again so many different themes. I'm so pleased that we don't have to choose a favourite.<br /><br />I was really lucky with my Seasonal CC in that I've already started my cards and am using blue/glitter/ribbon/silver etc for this year.<br /><br />The CAFE is OPEN waiting for you all to pop in and on the lunch menu today is Roast Beef so place your orders asap.<br /><br />HUGS are on their way to you all. Have a really good Sunday. xxxx<br />janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14769057785697422382noreply@blogger.com
