Holiday Slimline Card Tutorial

 

Hello, G45ers!

  It is beginning to look a lot Christmas here on the Graphic 45 blog.  Today, Graphic 45 Brand Ambassador, Aya El shares a Holiday Slimline Card Tutorial for our #G45Card Challenge.  These gorgeous cards highlight our Christmas Time paper collection but they could be done with any decorative papers.  

Holiday Slimline Card Tutorial

By Aya El 

 

“Hello crafty friends and welcome to another G45 project 

Today I will share with you simple holiday card designs  for men. I am using a Christmas Time collection. This collection has vibrant, festive, and vintage images.

  

I made slimline cards and I used long dies for that. If you do not have the dies you can easily do it yourself by using a paper trimmer and scoring board. I will attach the measurements of  the slimline cards. Thanks to Crystal Komara for this measurement chart.

 

 

The first card 

I made this card and I had in my mind to create a shaker card but I ran out of the plastic sheets to create the window for the shaker card. Instead, I cover these windows using skeleton leaves. I added a jar topper die cut and some mat pearl gems ( to assemble a treat jar). Finally, I added a sticker from a sticker sheet that comes with the Christmas Time collection. 

 

 

The second card is also the same idea as the first one. I left the windows open and I just added pearl gems inside them. Then I wrapped the flower stems between each window.

 

For the last card, I adhered the second layer in the far right then on top of it I added gold washi tape for different textures. Also added a decorative lace sticker. For my sentiment, I used a die-cut from Fairie Wings collection.

I hope you got inspired to try making these cards using G45 paper collections. Please do not forget to check other designers’ work over Graphic 45’s blog for more inspiration!” ~Aya
