 Hi there Creators,

Today I thought I'd show you how to make a card out of designer papers that shows off both sides of the papers (let's face it when we look at these gorgeous papers sometimes its hard to know which side is the one we want to use!) - problem solved - use both sides 🤣

And BONUS there's a designer Paper sale on all of June - woo hoo! (funnily enough both of these papers are in it 😁)

and here are the measurements:

To make this portrait:

Cut the Designer Paper to 14.8cm x 10", then score at 1", 3", 7" & 9"  fold up, add a piece into the middle to write on and something at the front to add interest

To make this landscape:

Cut the Designer Paper to 10.5cm x 12", then score at 1 1/4", 3 1/2", 8 1/2" & 10 3/4" again fold up and add something to the front - bear in mind this card doesn't completely close in the middle there's a gap of about 1/2"

If you missed the video and would like to see it - here it is😁

I hope this inspires you to create

God Bless love
