Retro style circles layout; super easy! Catch the Live video tonight!

November 9, 2020

Tonight at 7:30 pm Central Time I'm sharing how to make these retro style circle cards on Facebook Live. Click here to join me. You can also see this video below!

Basically you need three sizes of circle dies or punches for the start of this layout. Cut them in half and layer together with the edges meeting on one side. Adhere and add a long greeting between the two.

Watch how on my FB Live replay!

Measurements:

5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base
3 1/2" X 4 3/4" Whisper White; the greeting strip is about 5" long and either 1/2" or 3/4" wide depending on your greeting image.
1" X 5 1/2" horizontal strip
Circles from the Stitched Shapes dies are the largest three circles.

You'll want ink, stamps and embellishments that coordinate with your Designer Paper. Remember you could use card stock instead of DSP.
