Inexpensive Card Stand

Do you sell your cards?
Want to display them without spending a fortune on expensive dies or stands?
Well here's my version (with template & instructions). Feel free to copy & print the template. All I ask is that you point the credit back here and spread the word.
 
 
 
 
 
 



1. Take an A4 sheet of card.
(I used foiled but you could use plain and decorate it)

2. On the wrong side and measuring from the shorter edge measure & score at 1cm, 2.5cm & 4cm (ABC distances apart as shown).
     Draw a pencil line at 5cm. (the red line at 'D' on the template)

3. At the opposite end of the card measure and score at 1cm, 9cm & 17cm.  (EFG distances as shown)
     Draw a pencil line at 23cm. (the red line at 'H' on the template)

4. Cut the A4 sheet into 3 lengthways (the dotted green line). Each piece should be 7cm wide.

5. Between point 'A' and the edge of the card put extra strong double sided tape.
Fold to make a triangle align and stick to your pencil mark at 'D'.

6.  Between point 'E' and the edge of the card put extra strong double sided tape.
Fold to make a triangle align and stick to your pencil mark at 'H'.

7. Do this for each of your 3 pieces.

If you're not decorating - Job done.


Thanks for looking and happy crafting.
