This is the easiest way to make the Neverending Card that I know. It does give you a few extra score lines that you don’t really need but it makes learning the card a lot simpler so I think it is a good trade off for your first attempt. At the end I’ll point out the unnecessary lines and you can decide if you want to take them out on future cards.
Step one. Cut four pieces of cardstock that are 3″ x 6″. (This size will result in a 6″ x 6″ finished card)
Step two. Score a line 1-1/2″ in from all sides as shown below:

Step three. Place two of the cards on the table as shows, long sides butted against each other and scored marks lining up.

Step four. Place glue or double stick tape in the four outer corners.

Step five. Place the remaining two pieces on top of the first two, turning them perpendicular to the first two and once again butting the long edges together.


Step six. Construction is now complete. As you open each level push the sides towards the back and crease well along the fold line. Check out the video to see how the pages fold back.
NOTES
Check out the diagram below. You don’t really need to score the line down the center of the card. The red section does absolutely nothing for you. The blue section was only there to help you line up your tape or glue in step four. It is very important that your adhesive doesn’t extend beyond the blue line so I suggest you mark this part of the line either with a pencil or by scoring.

Here is something to keep in mind when decorating your card. There will be four different faces and for the most part they can be decorated independent of the other faces. However, there is one section that can be viewed as part of both face two and face three.


So that’s it. It’s a whole lot easier than it looks, isn’t it? Now go and make a card… and don’t forget to show me how it turns out!

Good luck, Cookie. This is a fun card.
BTW, your post was here in time for the contest, I was having computer problems and just didn’t get it approved till the next morning. You’ll be in the drawing later today.

Several years ago, I made a larger version of this card with family photos for my mother’s 9oth birthday…she nearly wore the folds out looking at it over the years. She felt it was a treasure trove of memories.
