Christmas Card: Sentimental Panels

This technique can be used with rub-ons, stamps or stickers, and makes for an effective greeting card.

What you need

Cardstock
Patterned paper
Rub-on sentiments
Adhesive
Decorative Scissors
Epoxy sticker

Instructions

With busy patterned paper it’s sometimes difficult to find a place for a sentiment, or the sentiment gets lost on the card.

One way which I overcome this is to make a focal point of the sentiment panel and repeat it.

1. Cut card base to 8.5 x 5.5″ score and fold in half.

2. Apply adhesive to the card base front and apply patterned paper. Let it dry and trim away the excess.

3. Apply rub-on sentiments and sticker to white card and trim leaving 1/4 border on each side. Mount panel onto blue cardstock and trim using decorative scallop scissors.

4. Adhere panel to card base and trim away excess.
