Mini Slimline

A Peachy Thank You Card

| ullycatdesigns

This card was made for Craft Roulette #307 whose parameters were: a mini slimline card, fungi colors, fruit element and two-tone. I used stamps from The Greetery and Riley & Company to make this tri-fold, min slimline Thank You card.

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

Cardbase: (Watch the video above for assembly instructions.) Cut two 3.5 x 6.25-inch rectangles from heavy cream cardstock and score and fold at 6-inches. Cut one 3.5 x 6-inch rectangle. Glue tabs to 6-inch piece to form a tri-fold, mini slimline cardbase.

Peaches: Follow the video above to see how to do the layered peach stamps from The Greetery‘s Peachy Keen stamp set.

Sentiments: On the card front is “Thank you for being a” is from Just Peachy Sentiments from The Greetery. The “I a-peach-iate you!” is from Riley & Company.

Envelope: The card fits into a 3.625×6.625-inch envelope decorated with a stamped peach from the Just Peachy Sentiments from The Greetery.

Do What Brings You Joy

| ullycatdesigns

Sometimes you just have to do what brings you joy and the dancing skeleton stamp by Riley and Company’s Funny Bones Collection brings me joy.

I designed this mini slimline card to measure 3×6 inches to fit inside a 3.5×6.5-inch coin-style envelope using scraps from other Christmas and Halloween card makes.

The pop-up mechanism is from the previously released Katherine Label Pop-Up die set by Karen Burniston (assembly video) and works well inside a top-fold mini slimline as long as the label or stamped image fits within the dimensions of the card. I practiced laying out the card elements with removable tape to get the best placement before gluing in place.

Because I felt the card was joyful inside, it needed just a tiny scary element, so the back of the card has the word “BOO!” in white. The lettering on the front has the base letters cut from black glitter cardstock with orange shadows behind. They are cut using Karen Burniston’s mini alphabet set.

All of the die-cuts are designed by Karen Burniston. The skeleton was stamped on creamy white cardstock and fussy cut around it.
