Arrow Shaped Card – Look At The Stars

| ullycatdesigns

This card was made for CRAFT ROULETTE #275 whose parameters were include an ATC, starry night colors, down element, and white dots. I chose to make a shaped card that includes an ATC (Artist Trading Card.)

Watch the process video to see how I made this card.

Cardbase:  I started with two pieces of 4.125×11-inch white cardstock. Traced around the arrow pattern I made from scrap paper and cut both of the arrows at the same time. I trimmed one arrow, at the wide end, off by .5-inch to let the other arrow have a tab to connect the the two pieces together. (After I completed the card, I found it was a little too long to fit in an 6×9-inch catalog size envelope, so I trimmed the arrow tip a little to made it fit.)

Sentiments: I used Karen Burniston’s Mini Alphabet to make the “When you’re down, Look up to the stars” sentiment. (I lined the letters up on my grid mat and used low tack tape the pick them up in line and then added glue, pressed in place on the card and finally lifted the tape off, pressing letters onto card.)

Envelope:  The card fits into an catalog size envelope (6x 9-inches).
