HO! HO! HO! Telescoping Card

Hello everyone and welcome to another fun challenge at BLOG-A-DOODLE!!  Please forgive us for being late.  This week I am filling in for Audrey and we are going to try something NEW and Different!  So please bear with me.

First, a huge Thank you for all the Fantastic entries to our  Show us Your Green, Red Plus 1 Other Color Challenge!  You all did outstanding work and it was wonderful to see your creations.   Unfortunately, all of you cannot be winners so  This week, random.org has chosen #8 DAVI with her gorgeous Christmas wreath.  Congratulations DAVI and thank you for your wonderful entry.  Please e-mail Lynne at stampndoodle@xplornet.com to claim your prize.

Just a little reminder of our SALE at STAMP-N-DOODLE STORE.   If you haven't visited our NEW SHOP yet, make sure you pop over to STAMP-N-DOODLE  and use your COUPON NEWSITE11 to get 15% OFF any item in the store including  our line of Crafts U Print items!



This week we are going to do a TELESCOPING CARD for the Holidays.  You are provided with the kit and all you have to do is color, embellish and assemble.  You will need 4 small brads of your choice and a small piece of ribbon to complete the kit.  If you wish to submit your own Telescoping card  idea please feel free.

You have until 11:59pm EST on Monday, Tues Dec 14th to enter.  I am looking forward to seeing your creations. Complete instructions are shown below the image.

Santa - size 4.5 x 4.5 "

Medium Panel approx. 4 x 4"

Small Panel approx. 3 x 3"
Assembly Instructions
  • Cut out all pieces, color, embellish as you desire.
  • Using a paper piercing tool  add a hole in the bottom of the medium size panel.
  • Now take your large panel and line up the medium panel (upside down) on your big one.  Add a hole in the large panel where they line up.
  • Insert a small brad through the holes - your first two layers are now made up.
  • Open the layers with the medium on top and line up the smallest layer (upside down again) and add a hole through both layers.
  • Insert a brad.
  • Cut a small piece of ribbon, fold in half and pierce a hole through the top of the small panel and the ribbon and insert a brad. 
  • You're done.  How easy is that and you have a great card for someone special.
