I made up some slim cards as an experiment and they turned into Father's Day cards and a birthday card!! I cut the cardstock from 8.5" x 11 cutting two strips about 3 3/8" wide and 11" long. I used the scrap that was left over to add pieces to the bottom of the fronts to make them the right size. I used regular tape on the front to keep them in place. The tape will be covered by the decorative paper. I added decorative paper to each of them - had to piece together the one for the flower card. I added little fishing images from another card on the three cards and added a greeting as well. I added a strip of rose cardstock to the pink one to which I had added a bit of white seam binding folded over and secure with a flower and brad. This element was positioned below the focal element to finish off the card.
I was really glad to find a way to make slim cards with 8.5" x 11" cardstock!!
