Score at 1 cm on both sides and fold backwards
create a window within the middle ( I used a metal ruler to size mine)
cut out the center piece

carefully line up your window to your base,making sure it is placed at your scoreline like the picture shows
attach the right sand side,again making sure it lines up to the edge of your card
erase all pencil lines

decorate at will
I layered some pieces for a dimensional look,also cutting some trees out of foam for a snowy look
