Hearts & Flowers Templates
Play this short video to see all my sample cards. Below are the step-by-step directions I used to create the baby card. It turned out so beautiful. You will just love these ver impressive cards.
Step-by-step directions on how I created the above card:
| 1. Use your favorite-colored 8.5x11 cardstock, not a pre-scored card. | |
| 2. Cut the cardstock to 4.5” x 8.5” strips, you can get two cards out of each 8.5x11 sheet. | |
3. Set the template in the middle of card stock. Use can tape in place if you wish using stencil tape. |
|
4. Trace the pattern with a sharp pencil. |
|
| 5. Cut out pattern, being careful to leave the sides of the hearts (or flowers) attached at the sides, freeing the top and bottom. | |
| 6. We suggest using a good pair of detailed scissors such as the CutterBee’s. | |
7. Now fold gently to allow a crease on the sides of the hearts. |
|
| 8. Next turn the card facedown over the template and using a fine embossing tip, emboss along the cut-out area. if desired. | |
9. A light table can be helpful while embossing, but not a requirement. |
|
| 10. Flip card face up and embellish with your favorite decorations. To make are sample cards we used 3-D images and outline stickers. |
