Slimline Cards Using Stamps of Life Rounded Slimline Card Die Set

  I am having a blast making slimline cards - the kind that fit in a "regular" business envelope. 

Card Base

The You Matter card uses a white base with a strip of lavender for the swirly top. The sentiment is black card stock from the remnant for the second card.

The Be Fearless card is a black base and a patterned paper for the topper (swirly layer). The sentiment is in black over a white shadow layer. I used the plain smaller panel to make a white writing space inside the card.

If I'd been thinking, I could have saved part of the swirl that comes out to decorate the inner writing layer.

Dies

I picked up the Stamps of Life Slimline Card Die Set, and here are my first cards with it.



The set includes the card die and inserts for a smaller layer, a checkered interior, and the swirl.

Sentiments

The sentiments come from the Fearless die set, which includes 5 sentiments with their corresponding shadow layer, from HSN.

Cutting Machine

You can use whatever you want, as long as it's a large cutting machine for this die, because the width of the base layer is 7 inches. I have a Gemini.

Tips

Be sure to put your dies at an angle as they go through your cutting machine. This is better for your unit and makes for a clean cut.


Thanks for stopping by! I hope you like these cards! I really love the die set. You can make the whole card structure with ease.

Cheers to your BLISSful Life!
