Hunkydory Crafts White Christmas - Part 1

We have had quite a few requests for Card sizes and measurements so following is a list of our commonly used card measurements and names. Hope this little cheat sheet is helpful.

LINKDL = 8" x 4" These cards are great as a card blank for Hunkydory printed cardstock with that lovely border art! LINK

A2 (US) = 4.25" x 5.5" LINK

A4 (European) = 8.25" x 11.7" This is the size of a sheet of Adorable Scorable. We also sell giant card blanks in this size! LINK

A5 (European) - 5.35" x 8.25" This is the size you get when you score and fold a sheet of A4 cardstock.LINK

A6 (US) = 5" x 6.5" We use a lot of these LINK

A6 (European) = Approx 4" x 6" LINK

A7 (US) = 5" x 7" LINK

A7 (European) 2-7/8" x 4-1/8" These are less common but since we sell these little cards in our store, I thought I would add them to the list. LINK

4" x 4" Square LINK

5" x 5" Square LINK

6" x 6" Square LINK

7" x 7" Square LINK

8" x 8" Square LINK

Specialty Cards are available in a large number of styles and dimensions. Please see the item descriptions for the size of each choice. We used four specialty styles in White Christmas Part 1:

Arch Window = 7" x 5" LINK

6" x 6" Gatefold LINK

HOTP Side Step = 5" x 6.5" LINK

HOTP Center Step = 5" x 6.5" LINK

These sizes are based on the size of the cards. Envelopes are usually 1/4" larger. For those of you that like to make your own cards, we sell a variety of sizes in envelopes LINK and card boxes LINK.

Progress slowed a bit on the shop this week when the City Inspector said that the City of Tigard had missed a requirement in plan approval and made us rework a the entire heating and air-conditioning system and replace newly installed windows with tempered windows. In addition to buying a new Heating/AC system and windows, we had to reschedule insulation and sheet rock.

I am trying to keep the cost and delays in perspective knowing that as frustrating as this is, it is nothing compared to the challenges faced by many of our friends in Texas, Florida, and other locations impacted by the recent hurricanes.  (Our thoughts and prayers are with you.) Forward movement continues and eventually we will get to move in. In the mean time, we will keep crafting and finding wonderful new products and ideas for you.

As always, please feel free to email us if you have questions, comments, or suggestions. We always appreciate your feedback and comments.

Happy crafting!
