I've made 12 of these cards for my aunt for her Christmas cards. Today's tip is to cut your cardstock for the card base a quarter inch narrower than normal to make getting cards into the envelope easier. Sometimes, I find I've put so much on my card it really is a tight fit. These fit fairly easily at regular size however, I think it will be a lot easier on her to have a bit of extra space. You don't want to struggle getting cards in envelopes when trying to get holiday cards out the door.
Here's the video on the card:

Anyone cooking yet? We are going out this Thanksgiving - my parents choice.
Thanks for watching!
I really like the effect of the Perfect Pearls. That's definitely something I need to pick up on my next craft run! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteGreat card.
ReplyDeleteI have yet to try my hand at using the perfect pearls.
I thought they were like a powder, so would have thought putting a wet/damp paintbrush in the container would ruin or clump the perfect pearls that are in the container.
This creates such a beautiful background for that angel. Gorgeous card, Lisa.
