Happy first Monday in October to you all. Where has this year gone!!
Before your jaw drops at the thought of a fun fold (thinking of you, Jen, Jean, Stacy and...), this is WAY, WAY easier than it looks - and it folds flat for mailing. Bonus, right?
I promise - to create the base, it's four scores and three cuts, glue three flaps and glue the small cubes to the tall one (technically not a cube!). I was able to do the maths to scale mine up to 2 1/2", cut it, and die-cut and add the DP whilst watching one single episode of M*A*S*H. If you have dies you can use for the matting layers, like I used the scalloped squares, and you use pretty DP, that makes it go very quickly. It probably took me just as long adding and colouring all the die-cut embellishments.
We're going to try the
Triple Cube Card, which featured in the Weekly Inkling a few weeks ago.
The tutorial (with video) is

HERE. You'll see one from Anita where she has added a fourth cube to make a table centerpiece.

Remember to use the keyword
TLC815 when you are uploading. It's helpful if you come back and leave a link on this thread, especially in case you made a typo and people may not find your card. Also (weren't you inspired by looking in the gallery) it's a great help if you too upload your card to the Technique Spotlight gallery. Simply choose Technique Spotlight from the first dropdown menu, and Triple Cube Card from the second. On a computer, if you type Trip into the box, it will take you there without needing to scroll.
