Make the most out of your 12×12 paper and create 9 split cards with one 12×12 sheet of designer paper!
Watch the Split Card Video! Be sure to scroll down and watch the video to see how I made these cards and more!
There are 2 easy ways to create a split card. You can use a fun curvy die like the one in the Curvy Dies set, or, you can cut with your Paper Trimmer or snips. I have demonstrated both ways in the video below in this post. Today’s post features the cards that have been die cut using the Curvy Dies. Tomorrow I will showcase the cards that were cut with the Paper Trimmer.
Above: cut a 4×4 square of Hydrangea Hill designer paper, die cut it with the curvy die, and split it apart to create a split card. I layered it onto a piece of 4″ x 5-1/2″ designer paper from the Hydrangea Hill paper pack and then onto a Highland Heather top fold card. Gorgeous Grape ribbon was used to tie around the card. Stamp the birthday greeting from the Quite Curvy set in Gorgeous Grape ink.
Above/Below: Top fold Petal Pink cardstock base with Fine Art Floral designer paper die cut with the Curvy dies. I fussy cut some flowers from the Fine Art Floral paper to add as a focal point, and added Scalloped Lace ribbon that I colored with my Old Olive Stampin’ Blends marker.

Good Morning
Enjoy all your videos. On your paper trimmer you have a yellow strip like a ruler. Get Idea. Where did you get that.
I added that to the paper trimmer. If you search for reverse self-adhesive ruler on Amazon you will find it.
It is amazing your resourcefulness. Love the ideas of using the curvy dies or cutting at a diagonal. Have used the 4 inch cutting for mass producing as well as the 3 inch. Your colors are beautiful combinations that really show case our beautiful dsp. Thanks for sharing your fabulous creativeness!
Thank you for such a kind comment!!! 🙂
Thank you for all the information you give. I would of never thought of cutting the paper as you did to save paper and make more cards. Always look forward to your postings.
So glad you liked it! Just something a little different 🙂
