Hi everyone, I had, had a few requests to make a Bay Window card, after looking on Pinterest I saw one by Maria Taylor from Cards Taylor Made by Maria .
At first glance, you think this card is quite complex, but it’s actually incredibly easy.
I made a 5′ x 7′ version, but it’s very easy to make any size you like.
It folds completely flat and will fit into a 5′ x 7′ envelope.
Having the aperture is also optional, these cards look lovely with the 3 panels covered with pattern paper and a matching topper in the centre panel.
I chose to have the back for my message, but if you don’t cut into the panels like I did, then you can write your message under the 3 panel section.
I used my Papercraft Society kit to decorate these cards.
