Greek Border Card
Materials Needed
  1 piece Fiskars 12’ x 12” blue paper
  1 piece of Fiskars 12” x 12” decorative
  vellum – blue Greek design
  8 ½” x 11” white card stock
  Fiskars scoring tool
  Fiskars border punch – Greek
  Glue stick
 
Instructions
  1. Cut blue card stock 11 ¼” x 4 ¼”
  2. Use scoring tool down the middle of card so you can fold card in half. Card dimensions are now 5-6/8” x 4 ¼”.
  3. Punch a border along the 11” edge of the white card stock. Start the punch in the middle of the edge of the paper and punch up to the top of the page. Go back to the middle and punch down the length of the page. Each time you punch be sure to line up the punched part of the paper with the design on the punch.
  4. Trim about 3-1/8”.
  5. Cut a piece of the decorative vellum slightly shorter in length than the white card stock.
  6. Layer the card – the blue card is longest. Next, the white border paper goes on top leaving some blue showing on the right. The vellum is on top leaving some white and blue paper showing.
  7. Mark on the vellum and white card stock where the card folds. Place each piece on a paper trimmer and with a scoring took, score a vertical line on both pieces of paper.
  8. Fold excess edge of vellum and white card stock around the crease of the card and using a glue stick adhere the edges to the back of the blue card
