Create Fast & Fabulous Cards

Today's focus is on creating a set of cards quickly and easily when you needs lots or just want to build up your stash of cards to have on hand when needed. And we always need birthday cards. Everyone we know has a birthday, right? In the following video, I demonstrate 2 layouts, same but sized differently, to help you make a stack of cards in a jiffy. The first layout allows you to make 9 cards with 1 sheet of Designer Series Paper. The second layout allows you to make 12 cards with 1 sheet of Designer Series Paper. The "Fast & Fabulous" card made for this post feature the Go To Greetings Stamp Set and Pretty Prints Designer Series Paper. Watch, learn, then pull out your card stock and Designer Series Paper to prep for your own set of Fast & Fabulous cards.

The 5 cards you see below are the ones I demonstrated in my FB Live which went out to 5 lucky viewers after my June 6th Facebook Live. (I very often give a way the cards I make in my Lives). These are just 5 of the total 21 I made using the 2 layouts shown in my demonstration. After finishing my Live, it took me just about an hour to complete the other 16 cards including adding the white card stock to the inside of each card and embellishing the card fronts. When I say these are Fast & Fabulous Cards, they really are.

Cutting Dimensions for set of 9 cards above:

Card base (cut 9) = 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", score at 4 1/4" on long side, fold in half.
Basic White card stock for inside cards (cut 9) = 5 1/4" x 4"
Basic White card stock (or coordinating color) (cut 9) = 5 1/4" x 4"
12" x 12" sheet of DSP = cut into nine 4" x 4" squares
Mark each DSP square at 1 1/2" from bottom left corner and 1 1/2" from top right corner. Line up pencil marks in cutting groove and cut at an angle.

Cutting Dimensions for set of 12 cards above:

Card base (cut 12) = 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", score at 4 1/4" on long side, fold in half.
Basic White card stock for inside cards (cut 12) = 5 1/4" x 4"
Basic White card stock (or coordinating color) (cut 12) = 3" x 4 1/4"
12" x 12" sheet of DSP = cut into twelve 3" x 3 3/4" rectangles
Mark each DSP square at 1 1/2" from bottom left corner and 1 1/2" from top right corner. Line up pencil marks in cutting groove and cut at an angle.
I used the pre-cut Lovely Layers Vellum which is 5" x 3 3/4"
