Stamp With Shel Wednesday- Step Panel Card featuring Translucent Florals-FUNFOLD

 

Today I am going to take you on a creative adventure into the crazy world of Shel....LOL! 

I recently found a little scrap of paper with some measurements written on it and I honestly had no idea whatsoever what it was for.  

I decided to cut the pieces out of old retired DSP and cardstock and investigate to see if I could figure out what it was. 

Now I am telling you this was no easy feat....to be honest it took me a while and I almost tossed it in the garbage....too many strange pieces with strange scores.  

However, after a lot of frustration and a few choice words I was successful.  I do not know what the name of this card was supposed to be but I am calling it a step panel card as it has a panel with various steps on it.  

Once I had it figured out, I decided to make a video and recreate it again (much easier the second time) with current products.
