Here's How to:
Thanks for giving it a try.
I started out with one 81/2 x 11" sheet of CS. You'll need out of that two pieces.. an 8x4" and a 4x4" piece. then I,
Scored the 8x4" peice on the 2" and 4" mark ( I used my scor-pal/ mindless). and fold on those score lines.
Add some adhesive on the first 2x2" section at the bottom. That is where your front is going to adhere. Match the edges with the 4x4" piece which is your front of your card. Decorate and Voila!
I popped the sentiment inside so the folded from would act as a kick stand for the front.
When it is all done it is a 4x4" card to fit into any standard envelope
