Merry Monday and Knit Sweater

 I have a lovely card for you today, but unfortunately, unless you purchased these products last year, you won't be able to recreate it.  But some of you have this set, so...


I was asked to make a few cards for the teachers of my Aqua Fitness classes.  So I pulled out some of my older, retired goodies to show them a little love again.  

The background stamp used on this card is Knit Sweater.  It is currently available in the Annual Catalog.  It makes a great background when you want a warm and cuddly card, and I highly recommend it.  

But what makes this card even cuter are the dies that retired - Knit Together.  I loved them, and have held on to them.  I love the way you can make your cards look like Argyle sweaters!

Now I know that we will need lots of space for signatures, so I made an extended card.  When first opened it looks like this:


I used the mitten from Celebrate with Tags and greetings from Framed and Festive.  

Then it opens again:


Yup - lots of room for signatures!  

To make this, I cut one sheet of Evening Evergreen cardstock in half to make two cards that measure       5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored in the middle at 4-1/4".  Then I layered one over the other, overlapping one panel in the middle and adhering them together, leaving me with a tri-fold card.  


I know this will be a fun card to give, and there will be lots of room for everyone to sign it!  

If you need an extra-large card, give this one a go!
