Step-by-Step
-
Step 1
Prepare an A2 panel (4 1/4' x 5 1/2") with a layering panel (4” x 5 1/4"). The layering panel in the sample was embossed.
-
Step 2
Cut a 3 1/4"x 8 1/2" layer of cardstock. Score it at 4 1/4" and adhere it to the card front where shown.
-
Step 3
Adhere a 4" x 3" layer of paper to the front panel of the folded cardstock.
-
Stamp a second 4" x 3" layer of cardstock and adhere it to the inside panel of the folded cardstock.
-
Step 4
Embellish the card front as desired.
For the sample, a 2” die cut circle was layered and popped up with Dimensionals, then embellished with themed die cuts. The sentiment was stamped onto a banner die cut. Black twine was wrapped around the front panel and then tied in a knot. -
Step 5
Create a coordinating envelope. Glue a 2 1/2" x 6" piece of designer series paper to the flap of an envelope.
-
Trim off excess by using the envelope flap as a guide.
-
Step 6
Complete the project.

Just a hint - I found it easy to make 4 cards at once, cutting one sheet into quarters for the bases, and then a second sheet across in 4 strips, 2.75" x 8.5" for the front flap. My cards are in the gallery!
