Envelope card class

Envelope and card in one

here goes

from a 12 x 12 sheet of card stock(double sided saves you having to cover your plain card stock)

measure and score at-

10 cm    5 mm     10 cm    5 mm    5 cm( for the flap)

15 cm down

if you are adding a decorative edge,do so now

finished card base

for your window-

cut your remaining piece to-

20 cm x 15 cm

Score at 1 cm on both sides and fold backwards 

create a window within the middle ( I used a metal ruler to size mine)

cut out the center piece

attach double sided tape to your flaps

carefully line up your window to your base,making sure it is placed at your scoreline like the picture shows

attach the right sand side,again making sure it lines up to the edge of your card

erase all pencil lines

base .....complete

decorate at will

I layered some pieces for a dimensional look,also cutting some trees out of foam for a snowy look

envelope flip using a corner rounder punch

Same template,using double sided paper

finish with a Velcro closing, ribbon/or paper belly band

Baby Drawer card class

Simple "Baby drawer"card

I cut my card down to 10x30cm
3 cards from one 12x12 sheet of KRAFT cardstock.
Score in half

Mark the centre in pencil and align size 4 from "scrapbooking faerie scallop tag set" like so.
Secure with washi tape before die cutting.
Cut through both layers
Drawer size is 3cm wide(3 pieces)
top strip is 1 cm
I backed each draw on an extra piece of Kraft card stock for dimension and added a further layer to the top drawer( to make it look slightly opened)
I then hung a piece that looked like a blanket peeking out the draw

I used 6 small brads as drawer handles....attach your die cut before securing to the draws

baby themed die cut elements

Completed card with all edges chalked
