This year my Christmas crafting included a very enjoyable team building exercise at my work place, by way of a fun cardmaking class in the boardroom. Over the course of two evenings, we created a bunch of these cute Christmas cards which were sent with beautifully wrapped corporate gifts as a thank you to various supporters of the business.
As you can see, we had a lot of room to spread out, and it was great fun watching the team move around the stations, many of them stamping for the first time.
Introducing new people to stamping is always enjoyable, but watching my work-friends discover the magic was so rewarding!
I chose a Z-Fold design, with it’s ease of cutting and scoring and it’s built in WOW factor.
If you’ve ever wondered why the Simply Scored Tool (metric) has a mark at 5.25cm, its perfect for this fold. Cut your cardstock in half at 14.85cm on the long side, giving you two card bases, and then turning to the long side again, score at 5.25cm and again at 10.5cm. This useful measurement works for a Gate Fold card too.
We used the Trucking Along Bundle from the Online Exclusives, with a selection of sentiment stamps and other background stamps from my stash.
I chose to only stamp the sentiment inside the card, leaving the cute truck as the main focus of the card.
Why not try this fun-fold card for your next crafting project? If you haven’t seen our Simply Scored tool, you can check it out by clicking the image below, and as always, if you aren’t currently shopping with a demonstrator, I’d love to help you out with any of your crafting needs.
