    Super cute great job! I was wondering exactly what size these were and at what length did you make the folds. Thank you

      Brandy (the card crafting sister’s) internet is out. I told her about your question, and she will be getting back to you when she can get back on the web. 🙂

      An “A2 card” is size 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 inches when finished. To make A2 cards form an 8 1/2 x 11 inch piece of card stock. Cut card stock in half to create 2 (8 1/2 x 5 1/2 inch) pieces. A “gate card” is simply a card that has two folds instead of one. For The Little Monster Party Invitations, the bottom folds 1 1/4 inches up and the top fold in 3 inches down. Hope this helps! Happy Card Making:)

      Hi Chelsea,

      This post is meant to be a tutorial. Even if you haven’t tried card making before, this project shouldn’t be too daunting for a beginner with creative tendencies. You can post any questions here and we’ll try our best to help.

      Happy Card Making,
      b

      Hi Ivonne,

      The white paper is cut 1/2 inch smaller than the finished card, so that it will have a 1/4 inch boarder all around. In this case, our finished card size is 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 inches, so the white paper is 3 3/4 x 5 inches.

      Happy Card Making,
      b

      Hi Caitlin,

      I did’t:) The top image was taken before I completed all the monster faces and closed the cards. But if you don’t like it, you could cut another piece of the card stock the same color as the card and cover it.

      Happy Card Making,
      b
