Turn 4 File Folders into Cards

Hi there paper crafting friends!  It’s Michelle Starcher, aka the Bookish Designer, popping in on the blog to share four cards I made using 4 File Folders (SVG, Silhouette).  I got the idea to use the file folders for card making when I saw a card in a book.  The idea of the card was to trim the front of the card, so that inside of the card was visible when closed.  Since the 4 File Folders already have a shorter front, I thought they would be perfect for this style of card.

To make the card, I resized the file folders to be the approximate size of an A2 card (4.25×5.5).  In order to do this, I enlarged the canvas size to be about 11 by 14.5 inches.  I changed the colors so that I could fit two cards on a 12X12 cutting mat.  Once I had the file folders cut, I used extra Project Life cards as the patterned paper and accents on the cards below.  For two of the cards, I added a 4×6 Project Life card to the front, traced the shape, and trimmed with scissors.  For the other two cards, I added a 4×6 Project Life card to the inside and trimmed as needed.  This is a create way to stretch your supplies by using up extra Project Life cards or scraps of paper in your stash.

I hope you’ll pick up the 4 File Folders (SVG, Silhouette) and make some beautiful cards for your family and friends.

Until next time,

Michelle

Digital Inspiration with Ashley

Hi there.  I hope you are having a wonderful July where ever you may be.  Here in the U.S., we are in the middle of summer.  My family just got back from Santa Fe, New Mexico.  I think Northern New Mexico has surprises for everyone who visits.  New Mexico is the Land of Enchantment, and we had an amazing time.  I have just started documenting it, so here are some of the activities we did highlighted in this layout.

This layout features I’d Rather Be Crafting by Lori. As well as the alphabet from Happiness is Homemade.

Fonts used: Dreamy, Perfect Type.

I hope you find time to craft and make some fun things during your summer months.
