Received thanks.  Have only just come on forum - was invited to a girly night in at my niece's last night so did not get on forum yesterday.  Have had visitors today so also did not get to Sheffield, got a family lunch tomorrow so will not get to Sheffield then either.

If you go on the net and put in Free templates you can find a waterfall template plus instructions It will take a little while to find the right site or just type in waterfall cards

craftiecockney - up off those knees!  ;D ;D ;D Sorry ... didn't look here before now so apologies for the delay in answering you, easier probably to post the instructions here if I am allowed!

This is what I use ...

To make this waterfall card:
 

(http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j61/Viv55555/cards/waterfallani.gif)

I used these templates below. They print out as an A4 sheet each. The second sheet is enough for three sets of card strips. You cut out the five panels on the second sheet and after decorating them, stick the edges on to the numbered panels on the first sheet. Hope the instructions are clear enough. If you want any more info do PM me.

Clear as .... mud? *grin*

Good Luck!

what are waterfall cards?

Title: Re: waterfall cards
Post by: Janet F. on January 23, 2007, 04:18:15 PM

Hi juegee

welcome to the forum

waterfall cards    if you have a look in the gallery  some people have put pictures in of waterfall cards they have made

on viv's posting just above she has done an animation of how it looks when the tab is pulled

Five card squares are decorated how you choose then mounted on a sliding strip and when the tab is pulled they "fall"

I will send you a pm of a site where you will see easy step by step instructions how to make them  but the card goes sideways rather than down  if that makes sense

hope this of help to you
look forward to seeing you posting again soon
