Let's talk cardstock basics + how to cut card base and layers and get all your questions answered! This is part 3 of my Card Making for Beginners series.
Knowing cardstock basics is the 3rd essential item when making cards. We have already talked about stamps, ink...and now on to cardstock!
I get asked all the time, “how do you make card bases?”, or “How do I cut cardstock for cards?” Then there are the questions about the difference in Stampin’ Up!’s ‘regular’ whisper white cardstock vs. thick whisper white. Let’s chat about all of that today.
Cardstock Basics: How to Cut Card Bases, Layers & More ~ This video is filled with cardstock cutting tips that will help all of you beginner card makers, and hopefully teach you something new if you have been paper crafting for awhile. I throw out lots of numbers, and it may be confusing, but watch to the end as I think it will all come together and make sense.

Ty! Newbie cardmakers need a total breakdown of how and where to begin! Very much appreciate this.

@KlompenStampersJackieBolhuis 2 года назад

You're so welcome!

After reading the comments I also am going to say Thankyou for reminding me, an old carmaker on how to fold the cardstock with the bump inside.

@jeanpowell981 3 года назад

I am still binge watching only because we are leaving our snowbird S. Texas home for our Missouri home this week. We live in a house in the woods on a river and do not have access to intranet, barely any phone service. So I’ll miss your upbeat videos but will watch when I can and look forward to catching up this Fall. Thanks so much for all of your tutorials. Time to pack up my toys for the trip back North.

@louannewronski4352 4 года назад

"mountain in the middle" is the only way I can remember that the ridge goes inside the card, Jackie. Thanks for the great tips, as usual.

@rhull-nicholls2727 4 года назад

I'm anxious to go find your other videos. You always manage to explain things well (even if in this case it took a minute to get around it). I know I'd get myself tongue tied trying to talk it through. I have to say it's nice to see you have an imperfect moment, because it just helps to show we're all human and it can happen. I have to admit, some rulers confuse me with lots of lines in between vs just a few. And I don't read them well. I usually count X number of lines past a 1/4, 1/2 or 3/4.

@ellieferguson104 2 года назад

This has been so helpful, thank you so much. I haven't made cards for years, and thought I'd start again, and for the life of me, I couldn't work out how to measure for the bases and layers. And the folding after scoring was helpful too, as I think I used to fold the wrong way. Awesome, thanks so much.

@KlompenStampersJackieBolhuis 2 года назад

I'm so happy to hear this was helpful for you!

@chrisarlington1792 2 года назад

You made it so much easier than just math. Thank you. Also, I am glad to explained the correct way to fold the score.

@KlompenStampersJackieBolhuis 2 года назад

I'm glad you found this video helpful and Maureen, don't feel stupid--LOTS of people struggle with these things (that's why I created this video) and sometimes our brains just need a little help to think about things slightly different. You've got this!

@Zanesmomma69 3 года назад

Folding tip was helpful. The rest was super confusing but I think watching your other video will help. However, seeing the examples at the end helped a bit show what you were trying to get across! Now to watch the other video. Thanks.

@esthergraham1353 10 месяцев назад

It was fun watching this older video of your younger self.

@KlompenStampersJackieBolhuis 10 месяцев назад

Hahah! Old vide, but still relevant content!

@BuffyLynn 3 года назад

Do you have a certain quantity for your precut bases? Like what colors and sizes of bases and layers do you like to have cut and ready to go on hand? This info would be helpful to a lot of newer card makers I believe. 😉👍🏻 thanks for such clear and helpful videos, as always!!

@shotsandbeerscandleco 2 года назад

Scoring first then cut. What a great tip; saves a step

@brendastrachan1843 2 года назад

I long time ago make a sample of each layer. Different colours. Size printed on each layer. Tuck the layers inside

@brendastrachan1843 2 года назад

Tuck rack layer inside a card.

I have been making cards for years but you have finally made me remember to fold the card so the bump is on the outside!! Why is that soooooo hard to remember? Thank you!!

@ddini3935 4 года назад

Ellen Gates didn’t she just say the bump or hump goes on the inside? I’m new so just got confused.

Hi, Jackie: What is the weight of the white cardstock and the green cardstock that I should be using? Thank you!

@KlompenStampersJackieBolhuis Год назад

Honestly, I do not know. It is from Stampin' Up! and a nice heave cardstock. If you email me I can look it up and find out for you.

@taniab2018 4 года назад

Great video... for the card with the birds' nest... did you cut the white panel first and then stamp, or stamp & then cut?

@inekegeernaert801 4 года назад

Not confused at all, Jackie! It's simple: 1/8 smaller gives you en edge of 1/16 all around - very pretty

@BeccaL2016 4 года назад

Great tips! Also I always got confused what weight of paper should be using. I have 110 lbs, 65lbs and designer paper and pretty thin ones too

@gloriaebert4209 4 года назад

Love your SIP concept - Stamps, Ink, and Paper. No, cutting dimensions were not confusing, just add 1/4 or 1/8 to you basic layout. Thank you for sharing.

Hi Jackie! You were saying in your video to "keep your blades sharp". How? Is there a way to sharpen blades once it starts going dull?

@elizabethdreier7582 2 года назад

Please Miss Jackie, how do I make a 5 X 7 card, cutting the cardstock? I'm so confused!

@KlompenStampersJackieBolhuis 2 года назад

To make a 5X7 card you would ned a 10 x 7 piece of cardstock. That is not a size I typically make, but I am working on a blog post showing lots of different cards size options.

@carmenalegre2096 4 года назад

Great thank you

@wendybelfry1110 4 года назад

I was taught by a former SU demonstrator that “the hump goes inside the card, because you’ll get arrested if you hump outside!”

@hollylowery26 4 года назад

Oh my goodness. I have never heard that before. But I can't stop laughing now!! 😁😅🤣🤭

@hollylowery26 4 года назад

Because the whisper white & lvory card stock are designed to be much smoother than all of the other stampin up cardstock. Your little saying is only true for the cardstock. The whisper white and ivory get to hump outside. It is a much denser paper but that's all I remember.

@geminidream4347 3 года назад

@beverlywaters6171 Год назад

When picking cardstocks, what is the weight of the papers?

@KlompenStampersJackieBolhuis Год назад

Gosh, I honestly do not know. I only use Stampin' Up! and their quality is the best so I don't really worry about the weight.

@susanrodgers6321 4 года назад

Love the 2 tick marks comment. I say the same thing. Great video

@lindafielder8344 4 года назад

I have always had issues with the fold. I usually just score then fold without flipping so it folds towards the valley, however I find depending on the cardstock I sometimes get cracks on the fold. I just paused your video and did a few folds on dark cardstock and folded to the mountain side and valley side. I found that folding to the mountain side does seem better. I must remember to take this extra step. Thanks.

@barbiekliscious Год назад

I never seem to have even edges when I fold my cards even with correct measuring and scoring tools - what am I doing wrong?

@KlompenStampersJackieBolhuis Год назад

Gosh, I don't know. Make sure you are measuring correctly. Maybe try not scoring and just match the edges when you fold it over, then use the bone folder to get a nice crisp edge.

@catherinedoerr5198 4 года назад

What size card does this recipe wind up being?

@barbarastrzykalski7070 4 месяца назад

Okay….so for the layering it is always 1/8th inch bigger or smaller. Got it!

@KlompenStampersJackieBolhuis 4 месяца назад

1/8" is always my go to! But sometimes that math isn't always the easiest, so 1/4" is good to!

@sandys8552 4 года назад
