TLC843 ~ It's all about a Slimline ~ {04/18/21}
Here are the Details for today's challenge:
Keyword: TLC843 (no spaces!)
My Sample:
TLC843 Morning Coffee (LT)
TLC843 Morning Coffee (LT)
I have tried slimline cards before (I think they were called tall cards then
) but it has been a while. I love them every time I see them and I remind myself that I really want to add that to my to-do list. I finally decided it was time to do it. These cards are great for scene building but I really wanted to play around with a tall digi and make it tall enough for a slimline card front. Whatever you decide to do, just have fun creating a slimline OR mini slimline card...
A slimline card is essentially 8.5"x3.5" but as long as it fits into a business size envelope (#10 - 9.5" X 4.125") it is fine. (to get the best use out of a letter size sheet of paper - Cut it at 8.5" X 7" and score in half on the 7" side).
A mini slimline card is 3"x6" (They make an envelope size called #6 3/4 Remittance Envelope that should fit these.)
FOR BONUS POINTS and if you don't have a business envelope, HERE
I can't wait to see your slimline cards! Have fun!!
Lyn

Lyn- thanks for the challenge!
I went with a mini Slimline card- had some pretty designer papers in my stash and added a traced Happy Birthday sentiment. Here's TLC838 HB Poppy __________________"You can't use up creativity. The more you use the more you have." -- Maya Angelou

I pulled out an old Penny Black stamp that is perfect for the slimline format.
