Hi everyone, sharing another cutting layout using the 6' x 4" (15.2cm x 10.2cm) Abstract Beauty Specialty Designer Series Paper Pack. I have also used the coordinating Hello Beautiful Stamp Set and the Beautiful Shapes Dies on these cards.
You will get two cards using this cutting layout. I have only given the instructions below for one of the cards, just repeat to get your two cards.
Cut the 6"x 4" (15.2cm x 10.2cm) piece of patterned paper into 1" x 4" (2.5cm x 10.2cm) strips. You will get 6 strips.
Cut a cardstock mat 4 1/8" x 3" (10.6cm x 7.5cm) and adhere two of the strips in place, one at the top and one at the bottom and then adhere this to the card front. See picture below.
Cut a cardstock mat at 1 1/8" x 4 3/4" (3cm x 12.2cm). Cut one of the 1" x 4" (2.5cm x 10.2 cm) strips at 1 1/2" (3.8cm) you will now have a piece 1" x 1 1/2" (2.5cm x 3.8cm) and another piece 1" x 2 1/2" (2.5cm x 6.4cm). Adhere these two pieces either end of the 1 1/8" x 4 3/4" (3cm x 12.2cm) cardstock mat and adhere to the card front. See picture below.
You can now decorate with a sentiment panel, ribbons and other embellishments to cover the gap on the middle strip. You would never know that this card was made with paper strips. This would also be a great way to use up those left over pieces that always seem to appear after a crafting session.
Hope you enjoyed this project.
