Yogi here today and I wanted to do something with the Periodic Table letters... but then got side tracked with the dinosaur font... BIG GRIN
Card size is 4.25"h x 5.25"w (card closed) Opens to 31.5"
I'm using sentiment stamps from Quietfire Design ("Wishing You Whimsy..." 4pce set)
And am using an electronic Monogram file (OTF) from Suzanne Cannon available on Silhouette onLine store. Click image to purchase.
Opened SCAL (Sure Cuts A Lot) software and typed the "Badlands" word, one letter at a time. Selected all and enlarged. Cut from white cardstock and while still on the mat colored with colored pencils. Removed from mat and set aside.
Created a large shadow layer for each letter and cut from black cardstock. Adhered both layers together.

Created the accordion fold structure. Cut an 8.5 x 11" mint green and baby blue cardstock in half length wise to make 2 pieces of 4.25" x 11" of each color. Cut the lengths in half to make a bunch of 4.25"h x 5.5"w pieces. Scored and creased each piece at 1/4". Adhered to the back of the next color. Starting with a green, then a blue, then a green etcetera. 6pcs total for this card.
When all assembled ran through my embossing machine using Cuttlebug Happy Birthday embossing folder, moving the folder over each time - till the whole card was embossed.

Adhered my colored letters onto each page section, placing 2 smaller letters on one page and the larger letter as a single on the next page.
Final touch, added a bead of Viva Iridescent Glitter down the center of each letter. Sorry hard to see that detail...
This would make such a cute card for a little boy (or girl...) who like dinosaurs or things prehistoric. BIG GRIN.
