This is a bridge card where the front panel looks like a bridge. It lifts up to reveal another panel inside. Here the top panel is covered with some Homemade Sweetness Designer Series Paper. In the center of the bridge is a cute basket full of puppies! What could be cuter?

The card base is 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ scored at 4-1/4.” Each side of the card front was cut in 1-1/4″ from the edge to create the sides of the bridge. For each side, a 1-1/8″ x 4-1/8″ piece of Misty Moonlight Cardstock was adhered to the panel, and then a 1″ x 4″ piece of the Designer Series Paper was adhered on top.

Then a 1-3/4″ x 5-1/2″ piece of Basic White cardstock was cut for the bridge piece. Again, a 1-5/8″ x 5-3/8″ piece of Misty Moonlight cardstock was adhered to the bridge, with a 1-1/2″ x 5-1/4″ piece of the Designer Series Paper. The bridge was then adhered to the side panels only using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

A basket was cut using the Easter Basket Dies and some cute puppies were added by using the absolutely adorable Cutest Crew Bundle!

The inner card was made when the side panels were cut. It was covered with cardstock and Designer Series Paper to coordinate with the rest of the card. The sentiment from the Cutest Crew Stamp Set was stamped on a circle punched using the 2″ Circle Punch. It turns out that the circle fits right inside the basket handle!

On the inside of the card, 1″ x 4″ pieces of the Designer Series Paper were adhered on each side, to carry on the theme, and a few little paw prints were added.
