MOTHER'S DAY 2011...

 
 
 

GREETING CARD LINERS...

When making a greeting card from dark paper colors, try adding a liner as an overlay...

 
Many types of papers are suitable... Use white or vanilla copy papers, parchment papers, translucent card stock, vellum, or any lightweight papers that complement the card colors...  

 

HERE'S HOW:  1) Cut the liner approximately 1/4" to 1/2" smaller than the inside of the card.  2) Adhere along the top edge of the card with just one strip of adhesive.  That's how Hallmark does it!

I also love to use pastel colors of Designer Series Papers for the liner.  It is especially nice to use the same DSP inside the card that you have used on the outside of the card.  For a nice touch, stamp directly onto the liner, leaving ample room for a personal handwritten note...
