Quick and Easy Split Cards

For last night's Mystery Stamping, we quickly created two cards at once! This technique is so simple and makes it so easy to create a pair of cards in minutes. So, on y go! Let's get stamping. 

Cutting Dimensions:
Cardstock (card base):

• 2 pieces – 8 ½” x 5 ½”, scored at 4 ¼”

Whisper White or Vanilla cardstock (card front):

• 5 ¼” x 8”

Optional Cardstock:

• 1 piece 3 15/16" x 5 3/16"
• White or Vanilla cardstock and layer for sentiments

Technique:
Start by stamping bold images down the center of your piece of 8" x 5 1/4" Whisper White or Vanilla cardstock. Leave some blank space on the outside edge.

Cut your stamped piece of White or Vanilla cardstock in half by cutting it at 4". Adhere one panel to each of your card bases. 

Stamp a sentiment in the white space on the edge of each card front. 

For each of these cards, I made a simple two-layer card and then I made a second slightly stepped-up card. For the second card, I trimmed the card front to 3 3/4" x 5" and layered it on a second piece of colored cardstock before adhering it to the card base. I also stamped the sentiment on a separate piece of Whisper White cardstock, layered it on colored cardstock, and then adhered it to my card base. I added some sequins or linen thread for a little more embellishment. 

These cards are so quick and easy that they are addictive! Once you start, you'll want to try all your stamps out to see what it looks like.
