Mini Slimline Card base cutting hack with 12x12 paper featuring Simple Vintage by Simple Stories

Get three slimline card bases from one 12x12 sheet of card stock. The mini slimlines will measure 3.5x6 when folded and fit in a 6 3/4 envelope. I included an alternative cutting pattern as well. Plus made 5 cards. Yay! Hope you enjoy. ✂️📄💕😎🌻

[@kymlafontaine1162]

I think these are my all time favourite mini slims. Love the mixed media kind of flavour and creativity on the fly.

[@nicolaboehm4815]

I started off thinking it's not me, then each card I got more and more into it, love the cards, will give it a go.

[@BittyPenny]

Hi Nicola, I totally understand that feeling. The same thing happens to me sometimes. I hope you gave it a go and had some fun. Thanks so much for watching 😎📄✂️🌻💕

[@rachellearcaro1984]

Such pretty cards. I would have never thought to use a paper sandwich bag, but yeah it gives the cards SO much dimension. Love them all.

[@BittyPenny]

Thanks so much!

[@kymlafontaine1162]

Absolutely love these. And the size. And yes. I cut my bases from the 12x12 cardstock.

[@kymlafontaine1162]

Beautiful. I love mini slimline cards the best. Especially for donations. And you can easily dress up the dollar store envelopes. And I have several bases made from my 12x12 cardstock. Thanks

[@BittyPenny]

Yes!! It is such a great size for donations and they are just fun to make. Thanks so much for sharing and saying hello. ✂️📄🥰🌈🙌💕

[@gailagilliland3268]

I love the cards you made today! I like the idea of making smaller slimline cards and using cutter parts in your card designs. I have the same simple stories accompaniment pad that you used for your card basis. I really like, as you said, that even though it’s plain paper, it does have a design. I think I will have to buy the other pad as well. Yes, I love seeing all of your card hacked! Please bring more! And bring more mini album/journalsI think I will have to buy the other pad as well. Yes, I love seeing all of your card hacked! Please bring more! And bring more mini album/journals! 🐝🐝🐝

[@BittyPenny]

Hey Gaila, I am so glad you enjoyed it. I will be sharing more journals and mini albums for sure in time. I tend to loose subscribers every time I post a non-card video, but I have to follow my crafty heart. My crafty heart just loves playing with paper and making all kinds of things. Keeps things interesting. I am so glad you enjoy the variety. 🥰📄✂️💕🌈

Girl you know how to work the paper cause in some of the cards I was like, "I don't think that's going to work" and girl you made it look good great cards I can't do that.

I may have to bust my no but may and pick up some of this collection. I feel like a lot of the DT stickers pair well and im trying to use up my stash.

[@rebeccasuraci7666]

No buy *

[@BittyPenny]

Lol. I get it. I tried to do a no buy last month. I totally failed. This collection is gorgeous.

[@MsSony12345]

So pretty! I love your score/cutting board..I've never seen both in one. Where did you order from please?

[@debramirich4480]

Love this! Love the Simple Story line you are using! Do have the link?

[@BittyPenny]

Hi Debra, I don’t have a link but I bought mine on A Cheery on Top as a bundle. 🥰📄✂️💕🌈

[@passionutaboutpaper]

I love watching your videos! such pretty cards & so many great ideas! may I ask what glue are you using?

[@GargoylGirl]

Beautiful! Where can I find those sequins?

[@BittyPenny]

Sorry, I had to jog my memory on that one. Those lovelies are from Catherine Pooler. You might be able to find them at Not2shabby shop. I can’t find my bottle. I think I used them all up. Thanks so much for watching ✂️📄🙌🌈💕

[@kasandrashay3040]

Where can I get the Salt Lake City sequins mix?

[@BittyPenny]

Hi Kasandra, I just found them on the N2Shabby shop. Use coupon code Jamie for 10%off. Her shipping is really reasonable too. www.not2shabbyshop.com/?AffId=40

[@theniffs]

Is your blade super dull on purpose? Im clearly too rigid lol I would be having a full on meltdown when my paper has fuzzies from a crappy cutter

[@BittyPenny]

Lol. Because I need to do my monthly maintenance and sharpen my blade. I actually saw it was giving me the fuzzies and so I sharpened it after the first couple of slices. I can’t figure out how to replace this blade so I keep sharpening it with foil... it’s doing double time. 🥰📄✂️💕🌈

[@donnaconnolly4852]

You probably answer this question all the time, but where did you get that scoreboard/paper cutter? I think I need it!

[@BittyPenny]

Hello Donna, I got it on Scrapbook.com, but I just saw it at Michael's the other day and it was less than $30.

[@donnaconnolly4852]

@@BittyPenny thanks!

[@barbarameehan113]

Th8s may be a stupid question but what is a "hack"?

[@BittyPenny]

Hi Barbara, That’s not stupid at all. Hacks are just tips for shortcuts on ordinary task. So this is just a tip on cutting to make things more efficient and helpful. 🥰📄✂️💕🌈
