I’m not finding instructions to make this card into a gift from your 4/19/22 post. Where can I find it?
There are 2 pages… instructions are on the second page.
I am not sure what went wrong with my post today but if you scroll down you will see a Page 2 button.
I don’t see directions on how to make this?
Cindy, I am not sure what went wrong with my post today but if you scroll down you will see a Page 2 button. Never had this happen before!
I was looking also?????? very intriguing!!
I found it!!!!!!! Should I say????
ok I will its on page 2 below the picture.
Connie,
Thank you. I’m sure I will be using this idea many times on alot of different occasions.
Found it. Thank you for your help
Just love this Connie! Great table favours for Mother’s Day Brunch!!
I loved this! However when I went to the download the instructions for the complete card aren’t there. It only shows one page with the paper sizes and scoring. What am I nor seeing?
Vicki, the download for today is only a single page – measurements, score lines, and links to the cards I shared in the video.
I still cannot find the instructions and I’ve tried my phone, IPAD and laptop. Page 2 is blank in all three.
Nancy, I am honestly not sure what went wonky with today’s post. I will look into it.
Connie after a I watched the video it popped up!! Computer are just so much fun sometimes. Thank you for such wonderful ideas😃
Look this idea…what size envelope are you using?
This is a clear envelope from Stampin’ Up. They are A2 size – 4 ⅜” x 5 ¾” – Item #102619
Found it Connie. Thank you. Can’t wait to make it.
Double love it,Connie!
