Two Shutter-cards Done-Up Differently: Masculine & Feminine

You can know a design theoretically, but there’s nothing like actually seeing it in your hands, with design paper and decorations! Especially if you make different versions, with different colors, themes, occasions and recipients.

So this week I’m sharing the pretty well-known shutter-card design, done in two different ways: one is masculine, the other feminine.

Enjoy! And if you want a third variation, check out my Christmas version!

Two Shutter Card Wallets

You’ve probably seen a tri-shutter card before – and if not, check out mine here, here and here 😉 – but this week I’m showing you a different kind. This one is Bigger & Better, and it has actual chipboard covers! 😃 It offers room for 10 wallet-sized pictures and/or journalling spots, and is an ideal birthday card to give in person.

Tutorial available!

Check out the video and pictures below to see what it looks like, and don’t forget to like & subscribe to my blog if you don’t want to miss any of my weekly posts.

Five Days of Christmas Card Styles – #5: Shutter Cards

On this last day of my Five Days of Christmas Card Styles, I’m sharing the shutter card. This is a simpler variation of the tri-shutter card, of which I’ve made several variations in previous blog posts, here, here, here and here.

I always find any iteration of this shutter type card fun to make, because you can use your 6×6″ papers in endless variations, cutting them to size and combining them continuingly.

For this stack, I used the following materials:

  • Moda Scrap Christmas Holidays 6×6″ pad
  • My Mind’s Eye All is Bright stickersheet
  • Studiolight Shabby Chic Christmas diecut/punch-out sheet
  • several dies and stamps
  • embossing folder
  • Stickles glitter glue
  • other ephemera
  • For the last card also: My Mind’s Eye All is Bright papers and brads
