Step-by-Step

1. Step 1

   Score 5 1/2" x 11" cardstock at 2 3/4", 5 1/2", and 8-1/4" along the long side.
   

2. Step 2

   To create the Screen Divider fold, fold in half at scored line then fold each side back in the opposite direction at the scored lines.
   

3. Step 3

   Unfold card and lay flat. Using a border punch, create a punched border along the top edge of the card.
   

4. Step 4

   To create "legs" at the bottom work with half of the card at a time. Keeping the two left panels folded, slide the bottom of those two panels into the Decorative Label punch (only 2 layers at a time will work). Position the cardstock about one-third of the way into the punch and center side to side, then punch.
   
5. Repeat with the right two panels.
   

6. Step 5

   Use stamps & ink to create four decorative panels measuring 2 1/8" x 4".
   
   NOTE:
   Be sure to leave room for the greeting and your signature on the 4th panel.
   

7. Step 6

   Layer stamped panels on to cardstock measuring 2-3/8" x 4-1/4". Adhere completed panels to the screen divider card base.
   

8. Step 7

   Embellish and complete the card, tying closed for mailing if desired.
   
9. Finished card will fit in an A2 envelope.
