1. To begin, you need a scoring tool, such as a scoring board or a bone folder. 2. Lay your cardstock out flat and line up the top edge of the scoring tool with it. 3. Use pressure to make a visible score line on the cardstock by gliding the scoring tool across it. Make sure not to push too firmly to prevent the paper from being harmed.
A great choice for making one-of-a-kind and customized greeting cards are trifold cards. How to create a trifold card is as follows:
1. Cut a cardstock piece to the required size. A trifold card’s standard dimensions are 5.5 by 8.5 inches, which can be folded to 5.5 by 3.5 inches. 2. From one of the short ends, score the cardstock at 2.75 inches and 5.5 inches. 3. Fold the cardstock to make three equal pieces along the score lines. 4. Use markers, stickers, or embellishments to customize the card as you choose.
Depending on your desire, there are numerous sizes of thank-you cards. However, a thank-you card should be 4.25 inches by 5.5 inches in size. This size can be folded in half to form a card that is 4.25 by 2.75 inches, which is acceptable for the majority of printers.
It is appropriate to provide a personal salutation when addressing the receiver of a greeting card. Depending on your relationship with the receiver, “Dear” or “To” should be used. If you are close with the person, you may use “Dear” before their first name. It is acceptable to use “To” followed by the recipient’s name if you don’t know them well.
In conclusion, cardboard greeting cards are a wonderful method to let your loved ones know how you truly feel. You can make stunning and unique cards for any occasion with the correct equipment and methods. Test out several trifold and thank you card sizes, and don’t forget to score the cardstock for a neat fold. Most essential, make sure to include a personal salutation to address the recipient that shows your relationship.
