DOCRAFTS CREATIVITY MAGAZINE ISSUE 33 MAY/JUN 2012
This issue we feature a delightful collection from Lucy Cromwell by Papermania, off ering all the cups of tea, cake and bunting you will need to set the scene. And just to prove how versatile this range is, you can also find it in our ‘Wedding Special’ feature and used to make a Father’s Day card in our ‘make a Father’s Day card’ challenge! Our ‘Wedding Special’ feature also includes jewellery for the bride and a charming idea to hold onto those precious memories of the big day!

Step by Step
1
Follow the Waterfall Card Template to cut parts 1,2,3,4 and 5 from plain white card. Cut part 6 from patterned Classic Christmas Paper.
2
Use matching patterned Classic Christmas paper to cover the front of a tall white card and outline with holographic red straight line border stickers.
3
Assemble the waterfall mechanism, ensuring the patterned side of part 6 is visible from the front for the bar and scalloped tag sections. Attach the white card panels as described on the template to part 6.
4
Decorate each panel of the waterfall mechanism using die-cut images and border stickers from the Classic Christmas range. Ensure that the decoration sits well with the waterfall design. Ie. The wording fits to the base of each panel and is not overlapped by the panel above! Keep testing that the decoration works both in the moving and original starting positions of the waterfall mechanism.
5
Attach the bar tabs to the card and brad into place for added strength. Set an eyelet into place at the bottom of the scalloped tag and attach a red charm using a mini lanyard. Decorate the scalloped tag with a sticker or die-cut message.
6
Attach another greeting sticker or die-cut message above the waterfall mechanism (or you could add the recipient’s name). Decorate the corners of the card with Classic Christmas cardstock sticker images to complete.
