Fast Cards with Designer Series Paper (Zoom Meeting)

I held our online Zoom craft meeting and had given my ladies this list so they could be ready to make 2 cards very fast.  Needed items:
  • Paper Trimmer
  • 2 pieces of DSP in 4x6 (can be the same or different pattern, each will be used on sep. card)
  • 2 pieces of black or dark contrasting CS that will coordinate with your DSP in 4 1/4 by 11 (scored at 5 1/2)
  • 2 pieces of white CS in 4 by 5 1/4
  • Sentiment Stamp and black ink plus white and black or dark contrasting CS scraps
  • Layering Punches/framelits for the Sentiment
  • Embellishments such as rhinestones...ribbon etc

All that needed to be done then was:
- Open the card, place into trimmer horizontally and cut at 3 1/4 and keep the cut off piece! Do on 2nd card too.
- Take DSP piece place into trimmer horizontally and cut at 3 and again at 2... that leaves you with another piece that is 1 inch wide. Now you have 3 pieces that are 3 by 4, 2 by 4 and 1 by 4
- The 2 by 4 piece gets adhered to the skinny front flap of the card
- The 1 by 4 piece gets adhered to the 5 1/4 by 4 piece of white CS and added to inside of card
- The 3 by 4 piece gets adhered to the piece we previously cut off the card front. It was then turned side ways and adhered to the front flap, making sure to add adhesive only to the outer edge of that layer so you don't glue the card shut
- Add greetings and embellishments as desired.

Here are my cards:
