Merry Christmas 3 dimensional card

It's a new challenge this month at Scor-Pal and we are creating 3D cards.

I've created this fun fold card that shows a different image once opened.

Cut 2 pieces of cardstock 8 1/2"" x 5 1/2".
Score at 4 1/4"

Score cardstock at 2 3/4"
Cut pattern paper 5 1/4" x 8"
Cut cardstock 4 3/4" x 7 1/2"
Cut pattern paper 4 1/2" x 7 1/4"
Die cut oval in front panel

Cut pattern paper 5 1/4" x 4 1/4"

Adhere pattern paper to both sections of the scored cardstock.

Die cut ovals in both sections.

Die cut oval borders to fit the die cut sections.

 

Cut cardstock 5 3/4" x 5 1/2"
Score cardstock at 5 1/2" and place Scor-Tape along the edge.

Stamp and color Santa and Santa's sack on white cardstock.

From the back, this is what the card looks like.

Assemble card by placing the folded panel to line up with the front cover.

Adhere the final panel to the folded panel using Scor-Tape.

Add a sentiment that overlaps the opening.

What do you think?

Joy Clair July Challenge

It's time for a new challenge at Joy Clair and this month we are using older stamp sets.

I wanted to create a wedding card so I pulled out the Wedding Sentiments stamp set.

I combined black and white cardstock and pattern papers for a sophisticated look.

Black and white flowers finished off the card.

Please be sure to stop by the Joy Clair blog for lots of inspiration.

Back to School Purse

Hi everyone  Scor-Pal is celebrating the upcoming school year with lots of fun back to school projects.

Today I'm sharing a project I think any girl would love to use for school.   Add a post it note pad inside with a pen or pencil and note taking is now a breeze.

Using a template I created, I cut the cardstock and the coordinating pattern paper.
Score 3 lines in the center of the cardstock and then mountain/valley fold.

Cut the pattern paper into 2 pieces.
Fussy cut the pattern paper so it is slightly smaller than the cardstock.
Adhere it to the cardstock.

Create the handles from a 12" x 1 3/4" piece of cardstock.
Score the length and fold in half.
Add Scor tape down the center and adhere together.

Add Scor tape along the back edge and add the handles to the purse. 
Create a front panel and adhere it to the inside back on top of the handles. 

Add pattern paper inside to cover the added panel.
Punch along the bottom edge for some visual interest.

Add a button to the flap and you are done.  Just adhere the post it note stack inside.

 

And another view.

I'm thinking this would be a fun gift for a teacher - I think she'd love it, don't you?

You're some kind of Wonderful

Scor-pal's newest challenge is now posted and it's a monochromatic theme.   Just be sure to use at least 2 score lines on your project.

This card is super simple.
Cut cardstock 6 1/2" x 10" and score in half creating a 6 1/2" x 5" card.
To create the flap, score from the fold line diagonally approximately 2".

Decorate as desired. 
I added a brad to hold the flap in place.

Friendship

Good morning everyone. I am loving all the stamps that are available at Cornish Heritage Farms.

Trying something different, I decided to use fabric on my card.  The card base is a sheet of fabric paper from SEI and the top layers are fabric to which I added "Steam A Seam".  This allows the fabric to become stiff enough to use with die cut machines and even aids in fussy cutting.  So it was quite easy to die cut the middle layer and fussy cut the top layer.

The sentiment is from Ornamental Beauty stamped in Clearsnap Ink and embossed with Clear embossing powder.

Thanks for stopping by today.

Dirty Words

Ha ha ha.  Did the title of this post get you wondering what I was doing?


Well, the Clearsnap design team is blog hopping  with the Kellycraft design team this week and boy have we got some fun projects to show you.  Be sure to stop by both blogs to see what's happening.

 

The stamps I received from Kellycraft were hysterical and knew I immediately that I would pair this phrase with my American Art Girl stamps. 

 

 

 

The image and words were stamped in black ink and embossed with clear embossing powder.  A little touch of Smooch Accent Ink was added to her jewelry (love this stuff).  Doesn't she remind you of Marilyn Monroe or perhaps Marlena Dietrich?  The words that used to come from their mouths.......

 

The little lady was die cut into a circle and then matted with a larger scalloped circle.  I cut the sentiment to fit inside the label and inked the edges with brown ink so it stands out.  For a little dimension, I tied the ribbon around the right side of the card before adding the sentiment with foam adhesives.

 

Thanks for stopping by today.  And don't forget to stop by the Clearsnap blog and the Kellycraft blog for more fun projects.

 

 

Supplies:

Cardstock: Bazzill

Scor-Pal and SEI Blog Hop

Hi everyone, this week Scor-pal and SEI are having a cross promotion.

Make sure to hop over to the Scor-pal blog  and SEI blog to see what you need to do to enter to win an awesome prize package. 

Today, I'm going to show you how to create this lovely envelope card.  This is definitely a card that the recipient will hold onto!!!  Knowing that I wanted to use the large rose on this beautiful SEI Lover's Rendezvous  paper, I created my project around it.  All the beautiful papers I've used are from SEI's Mia Bella paper pad, a beautiful collection of 12" x 12" papers in assorted prints and colors.

Cut pattern paper to 11" x 11" and use a Scor-pal   to score on the diagonal.

Place the fold at the top of the Scor-pal and score at 3 1/4" and 5 1/2".  Since the paper extends beyond the Scor-pal, flip it and score again at 3 1/4" and 5 1/2".  Rotate your paper so that the fold now sits along the left side of the Scor-pal and score the length at 4".

Cut out the triangles that were created when you scored at the 4" mark.

Fold on all score lines.

To create the diamond shape on both ends, place your finger inside and gently fold the paper from the bottom point, aligning with the bottom layers.

Add Scor-tape to the top sections  as shown.  Do NOT add tape to the left side diamond created in the previous step.  This must remain free to be used as the closure.

Adhere together and fold.  A little trimming may be necessary so that the top flap lays flat.

Insert the flap into the diamond to complete your project.



Now let's decorate!

Cut SEI's Lover's Rendezvous  paper to fit the interior sections of the card. 

Ink the edges with coordinating ink before assembling.

Add a sticker from the SEI Lexington Card Maker paper pad to the left side flap.

Stamp a sentiment on the right side flap.

Using Spellbinders circle dies, die cut cardstock and papers from SEI's Lexington Card Maker Paper pad for the center flap.  Tear a strip of cardstock to span the circle. 

Die cut foliage using SEI's Lexington Cardmaker Paper Pad and adhere with foam adhesives.

Stamp and color the focal image with Copic Markers and add to the center with foam adhesives for dimension.

Once completed, be sure all edges are inked, then refold allowing the rose to take center stage.

Just think of all the possibilities you can create with this envelope card. 

Thanks for stopping by today.
