hi everyone anat Kesler here with a new
0:14
video tutorial and today we are making
0:16
20 different cards from one piece of
0:21
paper you only need a 12x 12
0:23
double-sided card stock to make 20 cards
0:26
and I will show you how so you have a
0:30
link to the template and The Cutting
0:32
guide in the description under the video
0:34
go ahead and download it and then I'll
0:36
explain how to use it so this is the
0:39
template of the pieces that you need to
0:42
cut it is divided into
0:45
blocks so you have block
0:48
a Block
0:51
B Block
0:55
C block
0:57
[Music]
0:58
d block e
1:01
e and
1:03
then block F and each block is divided
1:07
into really small pieces of paper that
1:10
you need to
1:11
cut and then we're going to
1:13
use all those pieces to make the
1:17
cards you have the measurements to all
1:22
the small pieces in the cutting guide
1:24
and I will show you how to do it so
1:27
first we want to take our 12x2 ided card
1:30
stock and divide it into the
1:32
measurements of the five
1:37
blocks again you have
1:40
that in the cutting
1:42
guide I'm also
1:46
writing all the measurements here of the
1:50
blocks not the smaller
1:53
pieces that was too much of uh numbers
1:57
to write on the small pieces so that
1:59
that's why I separated the template and
2:03
The Cutting guide so first like I said
2:06
we're going to use a pencil and a ruler
2:09
to measure and draw the blocks now when
2:13
you use a double-sided card stock for
2:16
this project we will use both sides of
2:19
the pattern on the card stock so when
2:22
you mark
2:24
your blocks and your pieces with a
2:28
pencil try to do it as lightly as
2:31
possible because later we would need to
2:34
erase all the pencil marks so they won't
2:37
be
2:39
visible
2:41
so we're going to
2:45
continue with the division of the blocks
2:49
and then we can start
2:53
measuring each of the smaller shapes
2:56
within each
2:58
block it's a little time consuming but
3:01
once you have all the pieces you will
3:04
easily make 20 cards and that is really
3:07
a time saer so first we're going to
3:10
start with the vertical
3:12
lines I'm going to uh show you how to do
3:15
it on one block and then you'll get the
3:18
idea and do it on the other blocks like
3:21
I said all the measurements are in The
3:22
Cutting guide so first
3:25
measure
3:27
all the vertical lines and and in order
3:30
to ensure that you have straight lines
3:33
always Mark two spots two dots and then
3:37
connect the line between
3:41
them so we have the vertical
3:49
lines on the first
3:55
block and then we can go ahead and do
3:58
the horizontal lines so we need to turn
4:02
the paper and then
4:04
measure according to the cutting
4:12
guide and then Mark all the horizontal
4:16
lines now you see in there there is a
4:19
circle you will need to either use a
4:22
punch for that or other Circle cutting
4:27
system that you have
4:30
and the diagonal lines again you'll have
4:35
the measurements
4:39
but you can see that it's pretty easy to
4:45
do so when you measure the all the
4:48
smaller shape on the inside again use
4:50
the ruler to make sure that you mark
4:54
everything
4:57
properly so I'm going I'm showing you
5:00
shape by shape on the top block on block
5:04
a how I measure everything so the
5:08
diagonal lines the first one goes from
5:11
corner to
5:13
corner and the second goes to the right
5:18
about half an
5:22
inch and then you draw the diagonal line
5:26
so this way you're going to mark all the
5:29
lines of all the
5:31
shapes on all the
5:33
blocks and after only after you Mark and
5:37
draw all the shapes you can go ahead and
5:40
cut it but before you cut it make sure
5:44
to write down each of the numbers and
5:50
letters of
5:52
the shapes you will see that each shape
5:56
has a number and a letter
5:59
and it's very important to write it down
6:02
because
6:03
then that will tell us
6:08
which that will tell us
6:11
which shape to use for which card so
6:14
first I'm cutting the blocks only after
6:17
I've written all the names let's call
6:21
them the names of all the shapes so
6:24
these are the
6:26
blocks and now I'm cutting within the
6:29
blocks
6:33
according to the lines that I drew
6:35
before and now I have the shapes with
6:39
all the
6:42
names if you need to cut smaller lines
6:45
you can do that with the
6:49
scissors but other than that I use a
6:52
ruler and a craft knife you can use your
6:55
trimmer if you have one and it's more
6:58
comfortable for you
7:05
always start with a longer lines and
7:08
then go to the shorter lines so start
7:11
with a larger shapes and then cut out
7:15
the smaller shapes within the larger
7:21
shapes you will also need to cut
7:25
20 card stocks I use white but you can
7:29
can use another color pattern whatever
7:32
you want that will be the base for all
7:34
our
7:35
cards again you have the measurements
7:37
for that as well so here are all my
7:40
shapes
7:43
cut and you see I've written with a
7:45
pencil all their numbers and
7:48
letters now how is this going to work
7:52
you see that each shape has a number and
7:54
a letter for example 1 a so one means
7:59
that this is card number one and a b c d
8:03
whatever letters come after the number
8:06
one means that they go to card number
8:10
one and then you have card number two
8:14
and then you need all the letters that
8:17
goes after that come after two will go
8:20
to card number two so I hope that makes
8:23
sense so here are my
8:25
20 squares from White card stock again
8:29
you can use any color that you want that
8:31
matches your pattern card stock that you
8:34
just
8:35
cut and you're going to need to
8:38
erase
8:40
whatever side that you want to show and
8:43
has pencil marks on it so this is card
8:46
number one so I'm using pieces 1 a and 1
8:50
B because this card only has two
8:55
pieces make sure to erase the pencil
8:58
marks so card number two has three
9:02
pieces so you'll need two a 2 B and two
9:06
c and that how that's how all the cards
9:10
will
9:12
work so I'm erasing whatever pencil
9:16
marks I need to
9:19
erase because like I said we're going to
9:22
use both sides of the double-sided card
9:25
stock this is making use of both
9:28
patterns and colors and I also want to
9:31
add a little bit of ink to the
9:36
edges going to use red distress ink of
9:40
course like I said you
9:43
can use whatever distress ink that you
9:46
have that you want or you can even skip
9:48
this part Al
9:50
together now for the cards
9:54
themselves we're going to make them very
9:57
minimalistic and the design is not going
10:00
to be very complicated these are
10:03
supposed to be fast and quick cards of
10:07
course you can add any embellishments
10:09
that you want to them after we finish
10:12
attaching all the pieces for example
10:15
just want to say that on this card I've
10:17
cut one piece in
10:20
two even though it was
10:23
not uh designed this way on the original
10:27
shapes so you can leave it a hole or you
10:30
can cut it in half so card number three
10:33
also has three pieces so that would be 3
10:36
a 3B and 3 C also please note that not
10:41
all of the
10:44
cards are exactly situated one next to
10:48
the other I mean not all the shapes so
10:50
make sure that you don't miss any of the
10:53
pieces so for example for these pieces
10:56
I've cut the two rectangles into little
11:02
banners you can use these little Corners
11:05
as well I forgot to Ink this Edge you
11:08
can use the little Corners that you cut
11:11
for something else or you can throw them
11:14
away so this is card number four that
11:18
has two pieces 4 a and 4 B so by now you
11:22
have already understood how
11:25
these cards will work
11:30
so I'm just going to put some music and
11:34
then finish all the cards
11:37

18:53
he
18:57
[Music]
19:36
so we have almost finished making all
19:39
the
19:41
cards we have our last
19:44
one card number
19:49
20 and imagine that if you cut two 12x
19:54
12 double-sided card stock you can make
19:56
40 cards
19:58
and like you see here I'm using
20:00
double-sided foam tape so you can add
20:04
the shapes to the cards with that with
20:07
that type of tape and that will give it
20:10
also a little bit of Dimension so now I
20:13
just want to add some details to my
20:16
cards I'm just going to add little white
20:19
flowers and
20:21
maybe some rhinestones or Pearls of
20:25
course you can add as many
20:26
embellishments as you want I'm also
20:28
going to write on some of them but not
20:31
of on all of them again this is up to
20:34
you how you want to continue to
20:37
embellish the cards they're basically
20:39
like I said
20:40
minimalistic design
20:43
cards and for example here I'm just
20:47
adding little stars in the sky with my
20:50
pen and that really
20:54
adds fun uh atmosphere to the card you
20:58
don't have to use really expensive or
21:03
complicated embellishments you can just
21:05
add little stickers maybe some
21:08
glitter small things that you have in
21:11
your stash so these cards will
21:15
stay Frugal
21:18
and you don't need to spend a lot on
21:21
money on each of the
21:23
cards
21:25
so and of course you can leave the card
21:28
card s um 4x4 like they're now or you
21:33
can mount each of the card on a larger
21:36
card for example uh a green card stock
21:40
card or another pattern paper something
21:43
that matches the theme and then have
21:46
larger cards as well so again this is
21:51
completely up to you how you want to
21:53
proceed from this point I just wanted to
21:56
make the cards smaller so they can also
21:59
be gift tags they can be uh placement
22:04
cards they can be um wine bottle tags
22:09
whatever you want to use them for
22:12
because they're small enough
22:14
to be tags and not just
22:17
cards so I really hope you like this

22:45
our
22:48
cards and you see I'm not adding a lot
22:51
to
22:54
them just little touches here and there
22:59
I have a bunch of those small paper
23:01
