Good Tuesday morning. Esther is sharing a lovely card of encouragement today that mixes and matches a variety of stamps and dies. This is a unique and fun card design that allows both sides of double-sided designer paper to show equally as well. We all know HOW HARD it often is to cover up one side of beautiful paper, right? Well, check this out, and measurements are provided further down.

This is the card front, but that’s only the start of all the fun things to show you.

The designer paper used throughout this card is from Ink Drops Candy by Craft Consortium.

The vertical sentiment on the left is from Farmhouse All Occasion Greetings by Stamp Simply Clear Stamps.

The sentiment on the tag is from Typewritten What You Mean to Me by Stamp Simply Clear Stamps.

It is cut using Tag Collection by Tim Holtz (Sizzix).

The florals are die cut using Wildflower Stems #1 and #2 by Tim Holtz (Sizzix).

This is the card opened up, and here is where I want you to pay attention.

Flip back to the 1st photo and note the card base only extends 1.25″ on the front.

Note that the double-sided designer paper is adhered under that flap, allowing both sides of the designer paper to show – one side on the card front and the other side in the inside of the card.

The inside scripture verse is from Fear Not by Stamp Simply Clear Stamps.

It is cut with Elegant Ovals by Spellbinders.

This is the right side of the card inside.

The floral is die cut using Wildflower Stems #2 by Tim Holtz (Sizzix).

The ‘sweet friend’ is from Summer Roses Floral Cluster by Stamp Simply Clear Stamps.

This view shows you the card fully opened – just beautiful!

And these are the cut and score measurements of the various pieces.

Here are the measurements for creating this fun card:

• Cut a piece of colored card stock to measure 5.5″ x 5.5″ and score at 4.25″
  • This is  your card base
• Cut a white insert to measure 5.25″ x 4″
  • Adhere this to the inside of your card
• Cut a piece of designer paper to measure 5.25″ x 4″ 
  • This will be your front panel
• Cut two designer paper strips to measure 5.25″ x 1″
  • Adhere one to the front left side of the card and one along the right edge of the white insert

Actually, quite easy with spectacular results! Give it a try!!!
