Card sketches are helpful tools when you don’t have the time to design a layout. You can just take the design/layout and plug in your elements to create a quick card. Over the next few days we will be using some form of this basic card sketch for our Christmas cards made with the Season of Cheer designer series paper. Using this sketch is a practical matter when using 12×12 background paper; you are able to get 9 cards per sheet! This design is also quick and easy which is important if you don’t have a lot of time to spend creating your cards during the busy Holiday season! Your base cards is 5 1/2″ high by 4 1/4″ wide. There is a 5 1/4″ high by 4″ wide layer of Whisper White card stock and then a 4″ high by 3 3/4″ wide piece of background paper. These will be our basic measurements and the only things changing going forward will be the paper, slight changes to the layout, and different embellishments. Gold is in this Holiday season so we just pulled our color from the designer series paper and embellished in gold!
