Slimline Pivot Panel Card for Thanksgiving


Hello my crafty friends and welcome to Fun Fold Friday here on my blog. It's been awhile since I made one of these offset Slimline Cards, so I pulled out the House Pivot Panels by Karen Burniston. I also used her Tree Pop Up, Autumn Elements and Word Set 7 Autumn. Below is what the card looks like as it comes out of the envelope:


And here it is fully open!


I handwrote the sentiment on fishtail banners and adhered them to the top and bottom edges of  the pivot panel. I guess I didn't take a photo, but there is lots of room to write a message on the back side of the card.

Remember Karen Burniston has assembly videos for her pop up dies! You can find Karen Burnistons dies and videos here:  

Once you know how to assemble your die, the rest is card size, paper and colour choice as well as embellishments! You can change the look of your card every time you use the dies. 😊  I always enjoy showing you many different looks and ways you can use your dies once you have & know how to assemble them.


Measurements used:
Cut two panels of cardstock, one is 8.5 x 3.5" and the other is 6 x 3.5".
On the smaller panel, score 1/2" down the right short edge. This gives you a 1/2" tab which you will use to adhere to the back of the larger panel. Now you have your card base!

Patterned paper:
I cut a 3.25 x 12" patterned paper into sections: a 5.25" piece for the front, a 5" piece for the inner right and the leftover piece fits perfectly on the inner left side of the card.
