Stamp them or die cut the blooms, these Pansy Petals Suite Collection coordinates give you the perfect choices for any card layout. But if you want to try a new Fun Fold card idea, today’s Faux Buckle card creates the feeling of a three panel card with a special feature of the Tailor Made Tags Dies. The extra special touch of a stitched border sets this card layout apart from the average.
When a new catalog comes out, it’s always a little bit tricky to figure out what goes together. That’s where I come in! I’m here to help you sort out the parts and pieces that will add to your stamping collection and help to coordinate projects.

The layout of this card is so simple – a Fun Fold that works for so many stamp sets and themes. The reason I love this version so much though, is that the new Tailor Made Tags Dies create the perfect extra detail — a sweetly stitched border that brings out the detail in the pansies.
See how the greeting is revealed by the faux buckle? Plus there’s plenty of space to write your message inside this type of card.
There are a few little tricks to making this card work, including the order of assembly. Don’t get too excited and stick your inside card layer down before you add the tag!
Instructions for the Faux Buckle Card Layout:
- Cut the card base to 4 1/4″ x 11″ and score at 5 1/2″.
- Trim away 2 1/4″ from the card front. Use this scrap to die cut the Tailor Made Tag ‘buckle’.
- Cut the Basic White inside card layer to 4″ x 5 1/4″ and stamp as desired.
- Fold 1/2″ of the tag element underneath, then adhere to the back of the Basic White card layer. Adhere inside layer to card base.
- Decorate as desired (Pansy Patch stamp set and dies are excellent coordinates for this stitched tag!). The DSP panel for the card front is 3″ x 4″ — perfectly sized for efficient use of the 12×12″ Designer Series Paper!
Remember to keep your inside stamped image where it will be hidden by either the card front or the buckle element. You don’t want to give away your message before the card is opened!
