Tri-Shutter Card Open


This is a Tri-Shutter card (tutorial is on Splitcoaststampers here). Really easy, the longest part was coming up with the measurements for the pieces, but I have those written down now so should be easier next time. Love this card. The next post will show how it looks closed. Thanks for peeking!
