Stair Step Fold Birthday Card Shades of Purple













Created this Stair Step Fold Birthday Card
using a couple different shades of purple.
Purple is a favorite color of mine. This is my
first time making a Stair Step Fold Card.

Spellbinders dies work really well with the
different step sizes.

Stamped sentiment using embossing
powder & heat tool.

Added glitter for extra shine.

  4. Very pretty! I haven't tried a stair step card yet. You are inspiring me to give it a try. Love the shades of purple. I had a light purple room as girl and I loved it.

  5. This is so elegant, and pretty. I have to try a side step card. I had started one and then put it aside...never to finish it. I really love the colors on your card too;) Can you e-mail me at sar342@aol.com. I e-mailed you back about the mailboxes, and some other things and I don't think it got to you. Hugs!
