I did it!!!!
Well someone ask me to make a video on a cascading card…I didn’t know what it was so did some home work and I combine a few together and made my own well I call it the easy way because I don;t use many mark plus only one piece of 8 by 12 card stock and go from there.
On e the 8 x12 card stock score at 2, 4, 8, 10 and a very light mark at 6. Then I cut that piece of card stock in half by diagonal, so you will have a mark at 5 1/2 on top and one at 2 1/2 on the bottom to cut that will give you equal piece well okay I bet I got you lost good at this point so get a piece of 8×12, ruler, cutting board (fisckar) a pencil, scissor and come make one with me while watching the video. It is more easy then you thing well I think it’s is after so many that I did now it’s a piece of cake. Again if it something you would like me to video please send me your request, if I don’t know how I will probably find a way like I did with this one.
For this one I use the stamp set Field Flower page 120, Fabulous Florets page 107, Apothecary in the mini. The Beautiful Wing Embosslits #118138. Color of ink are, Regal Rose, Marina Mist, Pear Pizazz card stock Vanilla, Pear Pizazz, Regal Rose, Marina Mist.
the top picture is the way it fold flat and fit in a reg. envelope A-2 super fun

You have created such a beautiful card!!! Thank you for sharing your creativity. I love your projects.
What an interesting card and what a fun card to make and to send to some one!
I am so wowed by this card! I can't wait to try and create one of my own. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful work!!
Thank you so much for showing an awesome tutorial! I appreciate you taking the time to show an easier way to make this gorgeous card! Keep creating!
Oh Frencie…thanks so much! Your “easy” way is so much more “user” friendly…you can imagine how much cardstock I went through when I first started making this card with other instructions! I LOVE your way…..Thanks so much for sharing this with us! You are such an inspiration!!
Frenchie,
This is a great card. I liked the way you did it without having all of the pencil lines to erase. I really enjoy your blog. Thank you.
a 5***** video; thank you for sharing a beautiful project & video; as always, I enjoy your blog!~~(hugs, fr. N.B.)
Thanks for sharing this funky fold! You are just as cute as a button!!
The measurements on the blog are all
wrong. What a mess I had.
But I do enjoy your blog very much
All I can say is WOW WOW WOW!!! THis is an awesome card and the video was perfect!! TFS. This will definately be added to My Library of Wow cards!
France you are awesome!!! Huge hugs for this!! I saw a card like this on a blog a year or so ago, but no instructions. A few months ago, I tried looking again to find out how to make these, no luck. Finally found a couple with just instructions, no video and they were all in cm's not inches. That just made my head hurt. lol Your video is fantastic! Made this so easy. A tip for folding, just make sure you fold the two pieces opposite. If you start with a mountain on one piece, start with a valley on the other two so that the two middle sections will come back toward each other. Thanks so much!!
What a great card. I have to try those folds.
wow! I love your tutorial…can't wait to try this fold! You make it sound super easy..I just hope mine looks as good as yours! LOL
thank you for sharing
hugs,
Steph

HI Frenchie, I really love this card and am anxious to try it. I'm wondering (since I'm math challenged) if there is an quick and easy way to adjust the measurements using 8 1/2″ x 11 paper instead of 12″. I rarely use 12″ x 12″. Any math genious out the there?
Love, Diane
cudowna kartka bardzo dziękuje
Hello Frenchie !
A lot of thanks for this video ! It's very easy to understand and with your help I realize this faboulus card for a friend's birthday.
Thanks from Chartres (France). Have a good day.

Awesome idea for mother's day coming up!
Hugs,

JUST tried this!!!!! ( I was sent to you by Dawn! ) 🙂 Your instructions were SUPER!!!!!!! Easily understood! Thank you!!!! I just LOVE those cards that are folded DIFFERENTLY!!!! 🙂 WHAT FUN!!!!!!!!! 🙂 THANK YOU!!!!!!!!
for Diane if instead of 6 columns x 2 inches each you use 6 x 13/4 inches you need a piece of cardstock 8 x 10.5 inches to make the same card . Score at 1 3/4 then 3 1/2 make the halfway mark at 51/4 inches then score at 7 inches and 83/4 inches. Hope this helps. Just decide how wide you want your columns to be and calculate the width of your paper.
I used SCS directions and also found
all the pencil markings unnecessary and used one piece of cs, but you took it up another level by scoring before cutting the two pieces.
Love your work.
What an awesome card
really cool
thanks a lot
for the video

Wonderful card – great tutorial!!! Thanks for sharing- I have to try this!
Thanks so much for sharing how to make the cascading card. It was easy to understand and I just finished one for a good friend in Australia whose birthday is next week. I will be making some more of these, they are addicting.
Another GREAT presentation! Thank you so much for making it easy. This is a “I gotta try!” card.

Hey Frenchie! I found this on penterest and it was great. I loved making it. I posted my version on my blog: stampsinkandpaperpassions.blogspot.com with a link to your site. I couldn't find the SCS version. Like anonymous above, I cut down to 8-1/2 X 10-1/2. This size fits perfect (with the toppers) in a regular (?) size envelope. Good job!
Such a unique and creative way to make a card. I am going to use it for my husband's birthday card next week. Thanks for the video tutorial 🙂
Thank you!!!! You're the first person I've seen who posted a video and included written instructions on your blog. You made it sound so simple. Can't wait to try it out tonight!
You are awesome to post this video. It was so easy to follow. Thank you very much for directions for a beautiful card. I had directions from a magazine that I had but yours are so much simpler. Thanks again.
This is an absolutely awesome card! Thank you for your clear and easy to follow video. I can't wait to try this.

Love It! So easy to follow. Thank you!!!
Lovely! Thanks for a great tutorial.
Thank you Frenchie, I am going to make this for my grandsons wedding, it is beautiful.
Hi Frenchie, I wanted to make this card & searched all over til I found yours which make so much sense…My question what would be the sizes to Layer your panels?? Love how you get 2 panels from 1 sheet, instead of cutting 2 pieces up.. What is the finished size of this card?
The finished size is 5½ x 4¼ about it fir in the reg envelops For the layers you will need to the same size and do the same score after you are done scoring and cut diagonal cut 1/8 inch at each end and the straight bottom cut 1/4 inch then adhere on top of the card stock
