The Impossible Card Cricut Design Space Template

So you may have seen my previous post, about using the "Impossible Card" fancy fold technique... 

While I love this style, I knew there had to be an easier way... 

So I spent several hours designing a Cricut Design Space File. 




While it is not perfect, it will serve it's purpose. 

The file is for an A2 size card. 
The first file contains the base and the second contains the two side layers and the top standing layer. I am not charging for these, they are free for you to use, however I ask if you use, them to please give me credit, as the designer of the file.


Please note the file does contain a score piece and the cutting. So if you do not have a Cricut Score tool, you may wish to purchase one. If you are a Close to my Heart consultant we do have them in our Supply Section.


I can't wait to see what you use the file to create!

Just Thinking Of You "Impossible Card"

If you haven't had an opportunity to watch one of the many videos on Youtube about the new "fancy fold" card, called the Impossible Card, you are truly missing out. 

There are some really nice videos out there, and if my schedule allows, I will try to post one as well. However for now, I'm simply going to share the one I made for a dear co-worker, that's at a different location, that needs some cheering up. 



As most of you know, our current Seasonal Expressions catalog ends at the end of the month, so I wanted to showcase one of our adorable card kits. 
Nearly everything I needed to create this card was included in the kit. Even down to the cute diagonal ombre paper... that is actually pack of the "zip strip" that comes with the paper in the kit.



My base is made out of 100lb. White Bristol Smooth Paper by Canson. 
However all of the other papers and cardstock are from the kit. 
I love that the kit includes several of my favorite colors; Bashful (Color of the Year), Pansy, and Peacock.


The sentiment "Hello Lovely" came from the stamp set "Something Magical" which is included in the Cardmaking Kit. 
I love that each of our kits include an exclusive stamp set, that you can get only with that kit. 



I stamped the sentiment in Thistle, to help bring out the Pansy purple color in the patterned paper. You can also get the coordinating "Make Waves" paper packet to go along with this Cardmaking kit.

For a final touch, I added two of the little sequins flowers from the "Make Waves Sequins & Gems" pack included in the kit.




I hope you enjoyed my card, and I would love to see what you create from your kit or your Impossible Card design in general. 
Thank you for stopping by and Happy Stamping!
