Need 4 cards! Just ink, paper &trimmer



Here are 2 sets of cards. The first set is fall and second is Christmas… the splendid thoughts and merriest moment stamp sets were used from stampin up. These are perfect for stamp a stack or gift cards. Here is my store link if needed 

StampA stack idea
Here are 4 cards where the card fronts are made from one sheet of 81/2 by 11 card stock.  The video explains how to https://youtu.be/pG2JFRNMwKw  and here are the measurements for the label itself: 2 3/4 by 2 is all you need which can be cut out from the actual fronts of the card.  I explain this in the video. There is really no need to add extra dsp or anything. The front speaks for itself. Here I do show alternates for the card below you will see no need for extras unless you love an embellishment here and there. 


Since the card front starts at 51/2 by 41/4 I can cut to a 51/4 by 4 and use the stamped edges to cut and use for framing. 
Next you will see the pieces for the merriest moments : 

4 corners stamping technique.

       Below is the How the 4 corners card faces are made using a cross cross stamping process.  Don’t be worried about going over the center by at least an 1 1/2   Since we want the edges as a frame for the label. 

4 corners stamping card technique


To make the card fronts, stamp your images in a "cross" pattern in the center of the cardstock, then use your Paper Trimmer to cut the cardstock in quarters to make 4 pieces 4-1/4 x 5-1/2. You will trim these down to make card fronts. You can get 4 A2 size card fronts by trimming the panels to 4 x 5-1/4 . You can use as notecards, trim 2 of the panels to measure 3-5/8 x 4-7/8, and cut 2 of them down to 4-1/4 x 2-3/4, using a leftover piece to decorate a bag… check out my bags here on my blog here https://reneepcrafts.blogspot.com/2022/06/its-all-about-bags-and-their-many-sizes.html
