Card Racks 2017

Festive season - time for my annual toast rack-style card racks. This year, I have a fun mitten design and a patchwork motif to choose from. Bonus for you - a mitten motif card. Make them now, before the 10 December card blizzard!

These card racks are ideal if you prefer to browse rather than display holiday cards. 

Here are your free card rack design files:

Both card racks share the same base.

To assemble the card rack, print and cut your pieces. Score and fold the base of the card rack body. Glue the base tab - the arc-like slots form automatically.
Score and fold the tabs on the end pieces. Stick them on to the card rack ends, base tabs first, then sides, and finally top tab.

I like to add a whimsical piece of yarn mitten string to my card racks. Obviously, you must fasten the yarn before the end pieces are fully attached. Pierce a small hole at the base of each mitten (thumb side) and thread the yarn through the hole, knotting on the inside.

Happy festive crafting.
