Call me late to the party, but I just made my first slimline card. I know these cards came to the forefront about this time last year, and I didn’t get on board.
However, I was asked to create a good-bye and good luck card for our coach leaving Fit Body Boot Camp. I needed a card that had ample space for everyone to write a message.
So, after I created one and brought it to the gym, I found my Slim Sayings stamp set and coordinating Slimline Card Dies, Find them on page 52 of Stampin’ Up!’s January-June 2022 Mini Catalog. Purchase the stamp set and dies as a bundle and save 10 percent.
The above card uses products from Stamin’ Up!’s Waves of the Ocean Suite Collection. See this post for more card samples using these products.
Slimline cards offer a palette where you can include more images on the front, and it’s a change of pace from our regular card size. And, these cards can be mailed in a business-size envelope with no extra postage required. Stampin’ Up! even sells Slimline Envelopes. Receive 15 envelopes in three colors for $10.
Slimline Card Samples
To make a slimline card, cut a piece of card stock at 8 1/2 inches x 7 inches. Score at 3 1/2 inches. Now you’re ready to add layers, if you like, and stamp and embellish.
Here’s a replay of a Facebook Live where I created the card featured at the top.
