Split Front card technique; it’s easy with my template & video!

We made this pretty set of cards on Monday night's Stamp with Me Live.  It's the 2nd & 4th Monday's at 7:30 pm CT.  Click here and follow my page to get notified when I'm live.  There are 6 live videos each month!

I also used another sneak peak product from the upcoming Holiday catalog; the Timber 3D embossing folder.  Of course I stamped the greeting before I embossed it.

I hope you watch the video below to get the tips on cutting these pieces and finishing the cards. 

Here is the template.  Start out with a 4" X 5 1/4" piece of card stock AND of Designer Paper.  

Split Front Template Save

I suggest you cut this out of scrap card stock.  Make marks where indicated and cut on the diagonal.  Once you have the template I first place the bottom left piece (2 1/2") over my cut DSP & CS pieces and cut.  Then I use the upper right piece (3 3/4") on the remaining piece of papers and cut.  That leaves me with the center piece ready to go. 

Here's the video for you:

  • 2 more fun fold card ideas for you; from the Flowerbugs!

    Happy Thanksgiving!!  I hope you enjoy a wonderful holiday weekend and spend it with friends or maybe stamping!

    We'll be with our kids in Fargo and besides enjoying our turkey dinner we'll be playing games, going to an escape room and I'll be addressing some Christmas cards too.  

    ~~~

    Here are more of our Flowerbug's Team swaps featuring fancy folds.  

    Candy made this 'book binding' card with the Kindest Gnomes; see it here.

    Measurements are: 

    • Cherry Cobbler card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 4 1/4" & 5 1/2"

    Roxann made this amazing Diamond Fold card.  She used the Splendid Day specialty designer paper from the 2022 Holiday Catalog; seen here. 

    November Candy gnomes Save

    Her colors include Petal Pink &Soft Sea Foam. It's finished size is 5" square so it does not fit into a standard A2 size envelope.  

    Measurements:

    • Card base 5" X 10".  Score at 2 1/2" & 5".  You'll find the upper center at 2 1/2" and make a mark.  From the top, cut down on both sides to the first score line, removing those upper corners. 
    • Then make a mark from the bottom up on each side at the 7 1/2" mark.  Cut from the bottom center; also at 2 1/2", and cut to the 7 1/2" mark, removing the bottom outer corners. 
    • Soft Sea Foam squares are 3 1/4"
    • Designer paper squares are 3"

    Maybe someday I'll create one of these and share how it's done. It's a neat card!

  • Two more fun fold cards today; Penguins & Sun Prints

    Today I have two more unique 'fun fold' cards for you.  Both made by my talented Flowerbug's Team members. 

    First is an easy but quite unique fold made by Annette:

    November Annette Save

     

    • She used Night of Navy as her card base.  It's 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" and scored on the long side at 2", 3 1/8", 5 3/8" & 6 1/2". 
    • The Sun Prints DSP are 1 3/4" X 5 1/4" on the out side areas and 2" X 5 1/4" on the center.  
    • I didn't show a photo of the back but she added a White layer in the center area for signing.  It's also 2" X 5 1/4" 

    It stands up nicely too.  Here's what it looks like closed for mailing. 

    November Annette Save

    The scalloped rectangle die-cut if from the Scalloped Contour dies; the greeting is from Charming Sentiments and the pretty stem die-cut is from the Nature's Prints bundle seen here.

    Next is a cute spanner card made by Jacki. She chose to use the Penguin Place stamp set & coordinating Penguin Builder punch. 

    November Jacki Penguins Save

    Can you see how the sides and front greeting are floating in front of the center panel?  It's a neat fold that you'll never see in a pre-made card! 

    She used window sheets across the bottom to hold the greeting layers.  

    November Jacki Penguin Place Save

    The designer paper is from the Tea Boutique 6 X 6" paper in the Annual Catalog.  I love that snow hill curve! 

    November Jacki Penquin Save

    Measurements:

    • White card base is 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4".  
    • Then make cuts at 1 1/4" from both sides on the front and cut to the center score line.  That separates the sides from the front panel. 
    • DSP is 2 3/4" X 2" on the center and 1" X 4" on the sides.  

    November Jacki Penguin Place Save
    Here's a link to the Penguin Place stamp set and here's the Penguin Builder punch.
