Want the easiest handmade card template ever? Design Team Member Kate is back with another simple fun fold card that showcases both sides of that pretty patterned paper.
Easy Handmade Card Template Directions
Start with a panel of patterned paper measuring 4 x 5 1/4 inches (you can get six from a 12x12 inch sheet of scrapbook paper). Measure down 2 inches from the top on the long right side of the panel.
Make a score line from the top left corner down to that 2 inch mark on the right side.
Use a scoring tool or bone folder to crease the card stock. Adhere your flap down with strong adhesive and decorate as desired. I used some pretty die cut flowers as embellishments. Add a sentiment (or not!) and this card is ready to send.
Supplies:
- Lessebo Colors in White
- Bazzill Smoothies in Dark Olive, Blackberry Swirl
- Favorite Flower by Echo Park
- Flower Die by My Momenta
- Sentiment Stamp by Altenew
Here's the exact same handmade card template with different patterned scrapbook paper and die cuts.
Supplies:
- Lessebo Colors in White
- American Crafts Cardstock in Shrimp, Raspberry and Sunflower
- Good Vibes Floral from Echo Park
- Floral die from Spellbinders
- Sentiment Stamp by Stampin' Up
You could fold back any of the four corners to change up the look of the card.
Bonus Tip: Grab an Encore Textured Cardstock Swatch Book so you can find a cardstock match to your favorite patterned papers.

Hi Kate!
How do I download the template? Or do I just cut everything out myself??
