Last night on Facebook Live, I shared two versions of this accordion fold card, in two different themes. What makes each version different is the type of material used for the card base – cardstock or designer paper. This one uses Basic Black cardstock, which you can see better when the band is removed and it is opened up…
The base piece measures 5 1/2″ x 12″, scored at 1 3/4″, 4 3/4″ and 7 3/4″. I CASEd this from Brenda at Stamping As Fast As I Can. You can see her fall version from 2017 here.
The designer paper pieces to fit this card measure 1 5/8″ x 5 3/8″, 2 7/8″ x 5 3/8″ and 4 1/8″ x 5 3/8″. The band is 1″ x 10″, scored at 2 3/4″ and 7 1/8″.
The greeting on the band is from “Everything Festive” and the greeting on the inside panel is from “Spooktacular Bash”.
My Christmas version is made on Pretty Peacock cardstock with Brightly Gleaming designer paper. The greetings on this card are from “Everything Festive”.
In the version that uses designer paper, I added a panel to the front and inside of the card, and I have not used a band. The designer paper base dimensions are the same as in the cardstock version above (5 1/2″ x 12″, scored at 1 3/4″, 4 3/4″ and 7 3/4″). Other dimensions are as listed below.
Basic Black 3 1/8″ x 4 3/8″ (front) and 4″ x 5 1/4″ (inside)
Designer Paper 3″ x 4 1/4″ (front)
Whisper White 3 7/8″ x 5 1/8″ (inside)
These are the designer paper version made with the Brightly Gleaming suite. This suite lives up to its name! I CASEd a layout that I saw on a card by Rachel Woollard for the panel of ornaments. The greenery is made with the Christmas Layers dies.
