Fancy/Uneven Edged Card for Die Cut Divas!

Hello everyone! We have a December Challenge running at Die Cut Divas and the team is doing a reminder post today. Given the busy holidays, we're not doing individual posts so I won't have a Diva post on the 21st. Instead, I'm sharing the card below as inspiration. Frantic Stamper sponsored us this month and has a couple of dies as a prize for our random winner (to be awarded 1/3/25).

Supplies: Paper - Park Lane A2 card;

Doodlebug, BoBunny & Neenah white;

Dies - Frantic Stamper Simple Scalloped Edgers &

Giant Layered Thanks 

Stamps w/dies: Hero Arts retired snowman (set unk)

Other - Copic Markers

Our theme is a fancy or uneven edge on the card's outside edge. Some people have been unclear on this - we do mean an edge of the card base. Interpreting this as a shaped card works or making just one of the card base edges as fancy/uneven works too. 

On my card I made both the front and back bottom edges of the card base as scalloped. I started with a pale lilac A2 card and die cut the front with one of Frantic Stamper's Simple Scalloped Edgers (set has 3 different scalloped dies). I bought this set specifically for this challenge and it got first play here.

Next I cut an A2 panel of dotted Doodlebug down to a layering panel using the same die and then a darker purple strip of BoBunny that I layered behind the dotted. I had left the card back with a straight edge but decide to cut it with the scalloped die too. I used it on the white inside edge, rather than from the back, so it looks like part of the other rows. I love how this turned out!!

Next I die cut the layered thanks with Neenah white and a scrap of the same darker purple for the outline. I had a snowman already stamped and die cut in the Christmas bits box. I know it's Hero Arts but not sure the set's name; definitely retired though... I colored the snowman with some Copics. This is the first of my thank you cards for Christmas gifts; I plan to make more of this design - so fun!!

Ready for a bonus? I had been addressing envelopes to mail my stash of Christmas cards and realized I would run out. So I broke out another new FS die set I bought for this challenge.

Supplies: Paper - Park Lane A2 card;

Graphic 45 Merry & Bright

Dies - Frantic Stamper Deckled and Torn Edgers

Other - Graphic 45 Merry & Bright Ephemera

Yes, I have other dies to cut deckle and torn edges but I liked the shape of the FS ones. I used the torn edge die and cut into the card front. I added patterned paper to the inside of the back of the card base & left it as a straight edge. Next I took a piece of texty patterned paper from the same designer collection & cut it with the same die and layered onto the card front. Some ephemera from the collection completed the card. Oh, & on the inside, I used an Insider panel from Taylored Expressions. Those panels really saved me some time this year! I die cut the right edge with the torn edger, just a bit shorter than the card front so it's hidden when closed.

I'll add the snowman thanks card to Darnell's December NBUS Challenge #69.

That's it for today, friends. Hope to see you in the December Diva Gallery by 9pm Pacific Time on December 31st.

Thanks for stopping & happy crafting!
