Stamping INKspirations Blog Hop- A Cut Above

Cheryl · April 10, 2021 · 17 Comments

Aloha and welcome to Stamping INKspirations Blog Hop! The theme this month is birthdays!

I’ve made a Split Front Card using a fun set called A Cut Above.

A Cut Above Split Front CardI really enjoyed coloring this guy with my Stampin’ Blends!

See that guy mowing the lawn?  He looks exactly like my yard guy, Gus!!  I’m in the process of making a batch of cards for him to send out!

A Cut Above Split Front Card

Have you ever made a Split Front Card? It’s really very simple!

Split Front Card

  1. Start with Bumblebee cardstock 11″ x 4 1/4″. Score it at 5 1/2″ & fold it to form card base.  Burnish with a bone folder.
  2. Place the card base on the Paper Trimmer (landscape) on the long side so that the edge is at 2 1/8″. Bring the cutting blade up from the lower edge;  stop when the notch on the blade reaches the score line.
  3. Turn CS 1/4 turn and cut down the center of the card score line, removing the top part of the card.
  4. For the card inside: Cut Basic White CS 5 1/4″ x 2″.  Stamp sentiment then glue to inside bottom of card. Cut DSP 5 1/4″ x 2 1/4″ and glue to top inside of card.
  5. Card outside: DSP strip 5 1/2″ x 1/2″.  Glue onto top of front opening. *Basic White CS 4″ x 2 1/4″. Stamp image & color with Stampin’ Blends. Cut mat 4 1/4″ x 2 1/2″ and glue to back of white piece. Glue bottom of this piece to card front. *You could use any shape for the card front.

    Great card – brilliant how the card front splits to reveal that the inside is part of the outside!
