This is any size top fold card. Fold the top/front of card in 1/2 so that the bottom edge of card is inside the card. Now open it flat & set aside. Cut another card front same size as card. Decorate this "frame" as you wish using a photo or any stamped design. Set aside. On the inside of the card, (the part you stamp on & sign), measure from the bottom edge a generous 1/3 of the card, hold a ruler at that point & fold your top again to see if it stands up the way you like. Adjustments are made at this point & mark it lightly with a pencil. Glue the bottom section on the front up to the fold & place your "set aside extra top" on to this 1/2 of card. Remember the bottom of the frame must line up with the bottom front of the card. The bottom 1/2 will be glued to only 1/2 of your card front so when is free to stand up. Decorate bottom (signing area) of the card with 3D decor (the place you made your pencil mark) so the fold of the top fits behind your decor & holds it up & keeps card in place. When the card is folded for mailing it is flat & the frame you decorated is on top. I stamp my headline near the top fold of the inside of the card & it leaves a small area for signing
