Do you follow me on Instagram? Recently I had a conversation with another crafter about a card that I’d posted – one with a fun Tag Front Card design from a year ago. I didn’t realize that I’d never shared that card here on my blog, so thought I should let you know… be sure to follow me on Instagram and Facebook so you don’t miss anything fun! (You can even see a quick video of this project on my Instagram feed)
My Rooted in Nature card design here is similar to the Dutch Door Cards that I was loving last summer. But instead of having the panel fold from the side, this Tag Front Card layout uses a strip of the card front as an overlapping layer on the front of the card.
Plus don’t you love when cards have the PERFECT design for making the most of your Designer Series Paper? This contrasting In Color DSP is 2″ x 4″, which means you can cut 4 strips from a single 6″x6″ piece of paper. Perfect! And with the Buy 3, Get 1 FREE special in July, you’re going to love ideas for using your designer papers.
How To Make a Tag Front Card
- Cut cardstock to 4 1/4″ x 7 3/4″
- Score at 5 1/2″
- Punch a 2″ x 4 1/4″ piece of cardstock with the Banner Triple Punch and add to the card front
- Cut inside cardstock to 4″ x 5 1/4″ and contrast Designer Series Paper layer to 2″ x 4″
That card design was such a fun one that I’ve created a whole family of matching cards, using the same layout but different papers and stamp sets. Do you ever do this? I love when a great design is so flexible and can be adapted to so many themes!
Actually, I just posted a video tutorial about using design themes – be sure to check it out from my Stamps in the Mail Club last month.
