Looking for a thoughtful card making idea? With border punches and different shades of yellow cardstock, you can create playful patterns and layers. This get well soon card is easy to personalise and perfect for lifting someone’s spirits with a handmade touch.
Take the Florence yellow cardstock paper multipack and cut strips measuring 2 x 7 inches in each colour. You'll need one strip of some colours and two strips of others.
2
Use four different border punches to punch various colours of paper with distinct designs. Plan how you'll combine the paper in advance, ensuring an even distribution of designs.
3
Arrange the punched strips in a sequence of your choice on a base card.
4
Next, cut two different colours into sizes of 1.8 x 6.7 inches (4.5 x 17 cm) and 2.7 x 6.7 inches (7 x 17 cm).
5
Punch both long sides of the wide paper strip measuring 2.7 x 6.7 inches (7 x 17 cm). Attach it to the card, ensuring no white space is visible, and the pattern extends along the top and bottom of the strip.
6
Use a guillotine cutter to trim the protruding edges.
7
Punch one short side of the narrow 1.7 inch (4.5 cm) strip with a floral edge punch.
8
Rotate the paper 90 degrees and punch the long side of the strip. Check the alignment of the flower in the corner by looking at the bottom of the punch.
9
Cut along the pattern at approximately 5.9 inches (15 cm).
10
Rotate the paper again by 90 degrees and punch the other narrow side in the same manner as in step 7. Repeat step 8 so that the strip has a border of punched flowers.
11
Stamp a get well soon message or any desired text on the strip.
12
Attach the strip to the top of the card.
