Nature's Harvest Building Block Card

 I first saw this card, made by Debbie Mageed on Pinterest, and then used the tutorial on Splitcoaststampers to make my own calendar card. I used the lovely Blackberry Bliss DSP matted with Early Espresso card stock and some gold foil accents.

The card base is 5 `/2 by 10 1/2" Thick Basic white card stock, scored at 3 1/2 and 7"on the long side. These score lines are folded as a Mountain fold at the 3 1/2" score line and a Valley fold at the 7" score line.

To make the blocks the numbers are on some cut marks are made on the Valley Fold on the wrong side of the card. They are made up to 1 1/2" at the following intervals 3/8", 1 3/8" , 2 7/8, 3 7/8, 4 1/8, and 5 1/8".  Following that, score lines are made at the edges of the cut lines, at 5 1/2 and 8 1/2" so the 1" score lines can fold out as Mountain folds, and the 1/4" lines as Valley Folds.

All the score lines were burnished so they were crisp, after which the card was decorated.
