score and fold right side |
score and fold left side |
push the sides in bring down to make shape in the bottom pic |
score all lines with your bone folder |
fold your card base and mark a line in the center of the card |
align your mechanism on your mark.add glue, then bring the bottom half of your card up to close. |
rotate and repeat with the other half |
fold in half as shown |
fold the right hand side towards the center |
fold the left hand side toward the center |
mark the center of your card |
be very careful here to not go out of the area.......add glue to TOP RIGHT HAND BLOCK and BOTTOM LEFT BLOCK(indicated by the stripes.lay your top piece flat and attach.let it dry well before testing |
