Default TLC166 - Two Way Open Card

TLC166 - Two Way Open Card

I was looking at the Project Instructions forum yesterday, and found this really fun project called a Two Way Open Card. The card opens first to the left, and then toward the top!

Mine - closed
Mine - open once (it's a little hard to see the black triangle layer on the left)
Mine - open twice


Today's challenge is completely inspired by the samples and directions posted in this thread:
http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=130486

I don't normally use 12 x 12 paper, so I adapted the directions to start with 8 1/2" x 11 piece of paper. My directions are attached in a word document. You will most likely have to right-click on the attachment and chose 'save as' to copy the document to your computer.

You can make your card either size.


When you upload, please use keyword TLC166.
To see all the cards made for this challenge, click here: TLC166 Gallery
Have fun!


ETA: Thanks so much to 'transprntbutterfly' for converting the word file to a .pdf file!

These are fun cards to make! Here is one I made a little while back. It's a little different but it has the same exact concept! I will have to make another one later this evening.
