"Hang On, Spring Is Almost Here" Video Tutorial

"Hang On, Spring Is Almost Here" Video Tutorial

Presented by Barbara Nicolato, (Nic’s Knacks). This is an interactive card with a peep-hole showing an image, but upon opening it, the image changes. The images can also be replaced with changing sentiments. This is actually an easy card to make but requires a die cutting machine to cut the oval shape.

"Open My Heart" Video Tutorial

Presented by Barbara Nicolato, (Nic’s Knacks).  This tri-fold card is an A7 (5 x 7 inch) size that I’ve adapted from a smaller version I saw on-line.  The peek-a-boo window is in a heart shape but can also be cut into an circle or oval.  Besides a Valentine’s Day theme, it can be changed to a wedding theme or any other you desire.  Be creative.

"Panel Card Parts 1 & 2" Video Tutorial

"Panel Card Parts 1 & 2" Video Tutorial

I’m Barbara Nicolato, (Nic’s Knacks), Design Team Member. This tutorial follows me through making the card, and cutting it into panels with matting.  Because the video is lengthy, I’ve made it into a part one and a part two (released together) to better suit your time constraints.

I recommend following the cutting process that I demonstrate on the video even though the dimensions are given below the video.  I’m sure many of your already-made creations can be changed into a panel card. I hope you’ll give it a try and post yours in our Face Book groups so we can all enjoy our creations.
