So here we go... the simple way to make a Nested Labels Double Point card... as long as you don't want the "flappy bit" which (for many) is probably a main feature of the original Double Point Card... though not for me...
So this simplified way gives me everything I like in the Double Point design... but at speed... and with less materials being needed....
And I changed this one up after the original
Noble Peacock De-constructed Double Point Card posted here... as thinner Magnolia Lane papers meant I could add a co-ordinating mat whilst I was at it...
And please note that for simplicity's sake in the Tutorial...
(1) I kept the paper panel the same size for both of these card variations (the coloured mat being optional and that bit larger...)
(2) I have not altered the panel & mat dimensions for a wider US A2 card (4 1/4" ilo Rest of World A6 4 1/8" wide)... so you will have a bit of a white gap to line up on the top and bottom edge of this version...
But that's nice! So why re-design and complicate matters!! Look at t
