Well folks, I have decided to step down from the Printable Cuttable Creatables Design Team so this is the last project for them but definitely not the last time I'll use their cut files.
In honor of December birthdays, I decided to make a cute card using their cut file Scandinavian Nordic Gnome. I mean who doesn't love a gnome? Plus there are so many great gnome puns!
Once the image is uploaded into Cricut Design Space, make sure the image is highlighted and then ungroup. Printable Cuttable Creatables gives multiple layering options in their cut files but you only need one.
Since we're using paper, keep the top image and delete the bottom.
Now it's time to adjust the size. Just click on one of the corner dots and drag until it reaches the size you want.
Since I know in advance that I need a backing for the gnome, I duplicated the entire image and then used the combine feature to create a solid back.
Now I'm going to cut this, layer & adhere and get ready to make the card.
The card base is 4.25x7" scored at 5.5. You'll also need a piece of the same cardstock at 4.25x1.5".
Two pieces of coordinating cardstock at 4x1.25 and two pieces of patterned paper at 3.75x1.0".
Watch the YouTube video for the process. Isn't this gnome too cute?
The key to this fun fold card is to make sure the image is taller than the gap in between. Other than that, it's pretty easy to put together!
