BOOK BINDER CARDS - 3 WAYS


It's the time of year to be using papers with tulips!  My own tulips don't lasts very long due to the windy days we tend to get, but I can enjoy them on these papers.


Using the same measurements and scoring, you get a different look by using the papers horizontally.


This tends to be the way I usually do book binder cards.  I must have been in a hurry to get some of this paper used up, because I wish I would have taken the time to add some sheer white ribbon to the left side before gluing it down.

Actually a fourth way would be to use this same format but turn it vertically with the designer papers.  I didn't think to do that.  Thank you for coming by today!

A lovely trio of cards! I regularly make bookbinder cards. They are one of my go-to designs when I need to make a quick card. On your last card, you could still add a piece of paper lace to the "bound" area, if you wanted to.

These four cards were all made using scraps from the SU Garden Walk retired dsp. Thank you for coming by today!
