The Mechanical

The image to the right is what the card should look like at the end of our journey together. Forgive me for the image quality, that's the best my phone will do.

​

How can I print this card?

Each card will have a slightly different assembling process, but that is okay. For this card, you will need one small brad and a jar of rubber cement (or a stick of glue). These instructions are mostly boiled down versions of the instructions on the home page.

 

1. Print those pdfs at any printer (The ones attached below).

​

2. Cut out the design via the Cricut Printer with this link here. You should be able to find this card amongst the three listed. (Madeline is not me, but she owns the printer don't worry). You can use this video to help you with the cutting process. (there are also helpful prompts in the design space).

​

You'll have to download the Cricut Design Space and all that. Here is a helpful video on doing that. You will also need to create a free account with said design space.

​

3. After you have each of the three pieces you will need to take a thumbtack (I used a mechanical pencil) to punch a small hole in the center of the wheel and the little hole above the clock face on the front. 

​

4. Feed the brad through the front and wheel.

​

5. Lastly, we glue the backdrop to our assembled from the piece. I glued the very top and the very bottom. This way, there is space for the wheel to spin.

​

6. After your done, slap a stamp and some heartfelt message to the back and throw that baby in the mail.
