Well, I finally got this all put together and here it is for you. I may make one in video (depends on demand), but here it is in pictures.
First thing you need is 4 pieces of 3 X 6 cardstock. You can make 2 cards from 1 sheet of 12 X 12, and the finished product will be 6 X6. After removing your blade, score each piece on the 3" side at 1.5 inches.
Then flip to the 6" side and score at 1.5" and 4.5" (or1.5 from each end). Now you need to fold on all the score lines - BOTH WAYS !
By both way I mean each score should be folded twice - once in each direction. You need the folds to b pliable for the card to work better. Now it is time to assemble!! Lay 2 pieces side by side, with the 3" ends at the top. In the top two corners (staying within the score lines) add a bit of glue.
Take one of the other 2 pieces and lay it over top with the 6" end to the top. Press down the 2 corners together, to make sure they are secure and even. Then, do the same thing on the bottom two corners, and lay the last piece on to adhere it.
Now is the perfect time to check out the video to see how it works. I will be back, after I get the finished product photographed. Tootles, have fun and happy stamping!!
What a great card Julie, I just used that stamp set to create a card for our son! I love what you've done here with the clear block and Extreme Element stamp! have a great weekend

Thanks so much for the pictures and directions. I never would have attempted a card without them, but I did and it is much easier than I expected. I still need to work on how to make each panel as beautiful as yours, but here is my first attempt: http://stampsnstitches.blogspot.com/2011/02/never-ending-love.html

I really love doing things that are out of the ordinary. This certainly qualifies. Would really love to see a video on this. Thank you for helping us.

This card is very intriguing, I would love for you to do a video on how to make one. I would watch it over and over until I got it. Thanks for all you do.

Lorraine Wilby - what about a quick wizz over sandpaper then wax paper? May not even need wax paper.

Dear Julie
I just love your blog like 1000's of others. I see that you use the same Fiskars paper trimmer as I do. I find the blades go blunt SO quickly that it is costing me a fortune in replacements. Any ideas to help me make them stay sharper longer?
Many thanks

I have always admired these cards, but wonder if recipients will know how to flip and view them. They should come with diretions so that none of the beauty will be missed! This card is beautiful!!!

What a fabulous concept for a card! It's like getting four cards in one! I really appreciate the time involved in making the tutorial. If you could make a video, that would be GREAT (as I "get" it easier by actually "seeing" it being made).

I would love to see a video. Thank you for sharing your creativity.

Hi Julie,
THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!!
I have wanted to try making these for so long, but had NO idea how to even begin to assemble them. Now I can give it a try!
Thanks again!
Linda
P.S. Video of the assembly and decorating processes would be fabulous!

Please, please, please make a video tutorial. You are so amazing in all that you do, but I will never get this one without a video tutorial. Thanks for sharing this one.

Please do a video. I think I understand the construction of base but how to decorate each view? Do you have to score the pieces and cut to size?
Posted by: Melissa Ann Smith | February 08, 2011 at 11:07 AM
I watched the video of how it works, but would LOVE to see you do a video of how to make it (in addition to the tutorial above). So my vote: video please!

You need never-ending patience to figure this one out. We just made one at our bi-weekly workshop and I am so happy that the workshop leader knew what she was doing. In the end, it's a gorgeous card but getting there can be rather daunting. The video makes it easier ... thanks, Julie.
