Scor-Pal's August More Than One Score Challenge - Birthday or Anything Goes Mid-Month Tutorial

We are at mid-month! And, I have the mid-month tutorial on my Birthday Swing Card for you.  Since this month's theme is Birthday, I wanted to make a fun and interactive card. A swing fold card fits the bill for both idea.  The rest of the team has made some amazing projects so be sure to check out the Scor-Pal blog for pictures and links to their blogs.
For this project, you will need:
  • Scor-Pal
  • Scor-Mat
  • Scor-Tool
  • craft knife
  • ruler
  • One 6 3/4" x  5 1/2" piece of patterned paper (sturdy) 
  • Two 3" x 4 1/4" pieces of card stock for mats
  • Two 2 3/4" x 4" pieces of card stock for focal image and sentiment
  • Stamps
  • Ink
Place the Scor-Mat into the Scor-Pal. Place the patterned paper into the Scor-Pal with the 6 3/4" side against the top fence.  Align the ruler with the 5 1/2" mark and cut a vertical line from 1 1/4" to 4 1/4".
Rotate the patterned paper 180 degrees.  Once again, align the ruler with the 5 1/2" mark and cut a vertical line from 1 1/4" to 4 1/4".
Rotate patterned paper 90 degrees.  Align the ruler with the 4 1/4" mark and make two vertical cuts.  Cut down from 1 1/4" to 2 3/4" and then cut down from 4" to 5 1/2".  Rotate patterned paper 180 degrees and repeat the previous alignment and the previous two cuts.
Remove the Scor-Mat from the Scor-Pal.  Align the 6 3/4" side of the patterned paper against the top fence.  Make two vertical scores on the 2 3/4" mark from the top of the paper to 1 1/4" and then from 4 1/4" to the bottom of the page.
Flip the paper over so that the pattern is down.  Make two vertical scores on the 4" mark from the top of the paper to 1 1/4" and then from 4 1/4" to the bottom of the page.
Burnish all of the scores as shown.
Stamp desired image and sentiment on each of the 2 3/4" x 4" pieces of card stock.  Mat those on the 3" x 4 1/4" pieces of card stock.
Adhere matted pieces on the center swinging piece of the card base.
