 Hey everybody it's Simon at Mixed Up Craft, thank you for watching my tutorial today I'm going to be showing you how to make this really fun waterfall card. I have done these before, I've got two others on my channel but they're from a long time ago so I've got one that's actually inside the card, that was the first one I've done and then I have another one which is more of a mini album style and there are lots of pages on that one so I'll share the playlist up here because you might want to look at that one and maybe take some bits from that and you know and do it this way it's up to you. But basically how these work you just pull down the tab here and then each of the pages flick over revealing a different image on those panels and then you've got this one here at the bottom which says birthdays are all about having it large. So this is the perfect one for any of those fast food you know burger loving fans that you may have and then inside I've just got happy birthday to you and these are very very easy to make. I did make it during the Facebook live I will share that link below because I will show you some of the coloring there and just how I kind of stamped those panels because I have all that ready for this video just to keep it nice and short but like I said the link's there if you do want to go and check those out so let me show you how to make it. Okay so this is the stamp set I used it's by for the love of stamps and it's fast food fun. When I looked during the Facebook live it was still available on Hunky Dory's website and they've currently got a three for two offer on on their stamp sets so if you like the oh no I think the donut one is run out so I won't rub that one in because I know a lot of people couldn't get the donut stamp set that I shared in the donut card the other day but yeah this is the one I've used here and then for the pull um little sentiment I've got this one which was just from the die cutting essentials magazine it was issue 60 it's a really handy sex it's just got open and pull on it and it's uh and then it's got boy because these kind of cards are great for revealing a surprise maybe you're telling someone you're going on holiday or you are revealing if you're having a boy or a girl something like that so that's the stamp sets I've used then the good old holographic card stock I pulled out this one which is the dovecraft and it's the a4 but again that's all optional that's just how I decorated you know the detail on mine and then these are the papers that I've used it's this gingham print and it's a free download and I will share the link below and all you have to do is just enter your email address and then you can always unsubscribe after you've downloaded the papers if you don't want to you know receive any more you know information from them but um I've just printed a few that I'm going to use the red and the yellow today I've already prepared all of that but they're really nice and you know you can print as few as you want if you just want to print the pink one you can you can just download each color so yeah really really handy and perfect for this card okay so in the live I actually had this as two separate pieces one was six and a half and one was five and a half and then I thought during the live I could have just cut it from one piece but I know maybe some people might have only a five size card stock so have a look at the and I'll also write it in my blog but look at the facebook live for this two smaller sections but the full length is the same so this is 11 and a half inches so if you are someone that has just 11 inch length card stock then just check out the facebook live at the beginning and also in my blog I will write down the two lengths but it was five and a half I think and six and a half with the two separate lengths and you stick them together to get this same piece okay as I've said before I've done all the stamping and everything so just ignore this for the moment but this is a piece of 11 and a half by two and a half and along the 11 and a half inch side you want to score at two and a half three three and a half four four and a half five and five and a half okay that's all you need to do and then if you fold all of the score lines because those are going to be this is like now the track where all the panels are going to sit on so as we pull this piece down they will all each one in turn will just flick over okay because this will all be secured together when we get to it so you want this piece where you've just folded all of those score lines to fold over this piece so it will be slightly longer at the bottom here that's where I've stamped the pull and I've already decorated now you can go ahead and decorate this now if you want you want to make sure you come down and start your decoration from about an inch down from that last score line there because this doesn't get seen so it's just a waste you can see those images just little bits of each image I think looks really nice on that panel okay so that's that piece done and then it's just really straight onto the kind of panels because that's the mechanism and this is what we attach to the front of the card so here are all of my images now some of these I'd already done on the live and then I just coloured them once I'd finished and again really really fun love this stamp set I just think it's brilliant and it's a timeless one as well so it's something that you can always you know pull out year after year I'm sure someone will enjoy it so I've got here six panels now I've done one yellow one red one yellow you don't have to do that I'm just kind of keeping that theme for this card but each of these panels are three by three so you will want six and then you'll also want six white panels which are I think it was yeah two and three quarters squared and they're the ones I've stamped all my images on so I've done all of these using Memento black ink and then my Arteza alcohol markers the ever blend markers and just coloured those in really quick and easy to colour and like I said I do do that in the facebook live but you just want to stick them over all of those so you've got a little border and then decide what order you want them to go in now my happy burger day is going to be the first one that I stick down and then I'm probably going to do let's have this one here and then let's have the drink and the fries and the splats and then those ones there okay so that's the order mine's going to go in and we're going to stick them onto here you will also need another piece of cardstock that's four by one and that's going to go across to hold that all in place and then for the front and the inside I've got two pieces of holographic cardstock which are four and three quarters by six and three quarters two pieces and then this pattern paper here is four and a half by six and a half and again I've already gone and stuck them down because they are now going to go one's going to go on the front of the card I'm going to have the red on the front for this one and then I'm going to stick the yellow on the inside there okay so I'm going to get them stuck down first okay so that's those stuck down then we want to move on to this piece so the first one all you want to do is open this up and you're going to stick you're going to attach your glue just that very top one and half inch section okay so just on that very first one just there all right and then with this one here you want to lay it over the top it's good to use a liquid glue because you've got a little bit of wiggle time you want to make sure that you've got an even overhang on both sides there once you've got this first one down you'll use this then to line up all the others you don't need to do this with every one but certainly with the first one just make sure you get it nice and centered there and then you can just fold that over okay you can see there how it's just attached just in that first section then fold that one over you want to add glue to this one do try and make sure you keep your glue within that half inch section if you would rather use double-sided tape you can then I'm going to grab my next image and again I'm going to stick this one over here but now I just need to make sure it lines up with this one here so I'm just pushing my finger to each side there just to make sure that it all sits in place like so and then again I can just fold that one over and then again your next image oh I just realized I need to make sure I'm doing the right colors in order so I need to have the yellow actually so I'll do that yellow one and then the splats there was a reason why I chose the two separate colors so some of you might have already thought that when I just put them in order that the colors want in the right order so good job I noticed so yeah I want to have mine so it's yellow red yellow red yellow red and then again just fold that one over on the next one and just repeat that until you stuck them all down okay so now you should have something like that and like I said if you go ahead you can do it now as well because you can still easily put that in your stamping platform stamp and color on this because you know that doesn't really affect it but you want to if you have but like pull there you can even write it and yeah this is the whole mechanism so what's going to happen now is with this piece you want to stick it on this piece here you want to make sure that you've got an even amount overhanging okay so I would add glue you know about one inch up on this section here like so and then I can just stick that over the top there I'm just going to turn it over just so I can make sure grab my ruler there so it's three quarters three quarters just a little bit that way okay here we go you can always trim a little bit off on one side if not but now you can see there how that overhangs see I think I've got a little bit more on this side let me just check my measurements there I may need to trim it yes that's bang on that's a little smidge it's like the tiniest amount so I'm just going to take a little slither there we go there you go bang on okay so that's what you want to have there and then all you're going to do now is turn it over is add glue just to these bits here you know again red tape will be okay and if you're using a liquid glue can you see there make sure you don't go right up to this paper because when you you know kind of like squash it down you don't want the glue oozing out and going into inside this mechanism now hover it on your card I'm going to use this kind of line here above the white squares is where I'm going to stick this down and then I'm going to make sure I've got it even overhang here and then the rest should just all fall into place like so so it's all contained within there and then you can just slide that just push your finger on it and you can see there and because this is a nice strong cardstock this is a 300 gsm so it has you know that nice kind of movement and it's got the strength to be able to push that all back up again so it should run very very freely and this is the simplest easiest way to make these cards and then I've got these tiny little stars which I found which are old stamping up ones these are the last two left so I used them on that other card and I just think the stars go really well with this diner inspired card and then all I've got to do is stamp the inside which was using in my favorite things stamp set again I will link it but I'll do that off camera because you know what to do that I'll give you the measurements for the mat but that is the card finished just bring in the other one there and again I'll just tell you the mat size for this white piece here it was three and three quarters by five and a half so I've got room there and I'll just redo that for this one but again let me just bring them up they are very very easy to make they look so complex and so hard to do but they really aren't and you can take as long as you want with these you know you may have pre kind of printed images lots of people use photographs on them as well so it's a really nice kind of keepsake you know you might want to show it could be for someone's sixth birthday and you have six photos on there one for each year or you know there's just loads and loads of ways to do it but again if I just pull that one down you can see there all those fun fast food images which always make me hungry so there you have it I hope you've enjoyed this updated waterfall card from me as I said check out the links there as well just for those other ones because there are a bit more there's a lot more pages and just the other one is basically putting that mechanism inside the card so there's that option as well and they do stand up so again just in case you're wondering they will stand so thank you for watching and as always please consider subscribing if you haven't already so you get to see
