Yesterday, I received a new year card from my exchange partner in the community. She lives in South of France, and this is the card that she sent. She added some tags, stickers, and a greeting notes.
And this is the card that I made for her.
Materials and tools:
- Trimming and scoring board
- Plain white cardstock
- 2 pcs. of scrapbook design paper
- double sided tape
- foam tape
- wood die-cut or ornament
The procedure:
- In a plain white cardstock, cut a piece of 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 inches, then score at 3 inches in the longer side of the paper, and fold.
- In the same cardstock, cut a piece of 8 x 3 inches, then score at 4 inches in the longer side of the paper and fold.
- In a scrapbook design, cut a piece of 4 1/4 x 5 1/4 inches for the interior of the card.
- Cut a piece of 4 3/8 x 2 7/8 inches for the left front flap of the card.
- Cut a piece of 2 3/4 x 3 3/4 inches for the small plain cardstock to be place in the center of the card.
- Stick all the scrapbook design paper to your plain cardstock. The small piece of white cardstock must be place at the center.
- In the left side of the card, add ornament, this may serve as your closure of the card.
- For final retouch, stamp "2018" in a white cardstock, then stick it to a design paper, then design it according to your desire. I made a simple banner for the 2018 stamp.
And it's done! Easy and affordable! Thanks for dropping by! See you in my next post!
