One Card Two Ways

One Card Two Ways.....and a little more news at the end


Hi Everybody! Today I made One card Two ways using two different embossing folders. The Tufted Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder and the Basket Weave Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder are featured for this card. I've used some retired paper and ribbon for this project; however any color card stock and ribbon would look great with this technique.



Cut paper for card base. 8 1.5 x 5 1/2
Fold in half. 4 1/4 x 5 1/2
Cut layer of same color. 5 1/4 x 4
Pick your folder and run through Big Shot.



Using the Swirly Bird Stamp Set, stamp the solid circle on whisper white card stock, 
then stamp your sentiment over the top.  
Next, stamp flowers and leaves from the same set. 
Run your sentiment through the Big Shot using a Stitched Circle. 
Next run a Scalloped Circle a little larger then the Stitched Circle through the Big Shot, 
in the same color as your card base. 
Now run your flowers through the Big Shot using the coordinating framelits. 


 Sponge your scalloped circles, to give them dimension, in a slightly darker color. 
Glue circles together. Also glue the flowers and leaves on the circles.
Put ribbon around the card layer and tape to the back, add dimensionals.
Adhere to card base. 
Add your circles and add more ribbon and enamel dots, or whatever "Bling" you would like, 
to finish up this lovely card.


A little update on my granddaughter: She is now three months old and safely home enjoying her mommy and daddy! She has grown to 6lbs 3oz and 18.5" long! That's quite a ways from where she started, (2lb 3oz and 14.5" long). We are so blessed to have her and her momma safe and healthy.



I hope you enjoyed today's post!
Have a great week!!

Tea Bag Holder and No Glue Treat Box

Today's Project is a Tea Bag Holder and No Glue Treat Box

It all started out fine, until it failed. Well, you know what they say about failing, it just leads to new adventures. My Box was suppose to be my Tea Bag Holder, lol. Measurements weren't working so it became a box instead. At least I didn't waist the paper! I hope you enjoy today's project!


Tea Bag Holder
(made from a Candy Holder by Dianne Sineros as seen on youtube) 

Start with a 6"x6" piece of dsp.


Fold in half, corner to corner.


With the fold on the left side of your Simply Scored, score at 1/2", flip and do again keeping your fold on the left side.


Put the fold at the top and score at 2 3/4", flip and do again.


Start folding with the 2 3/4" score, make sure the design you want to be on the inside is facing up!


Fold the other side the same way and your paper should look like this:


Fold in half on your score line, point to point.


Fold back on the score line:


Then flip over and fold back:


 It should look like this on the inside and from the side:


Put points together and punch for a tie or ribbon.

     

 Fill and decorate and your done!!


So Easy and Fun!

No Glue Envelope Punch Board Box

Start with a 6"x6" piece of dsp.


Using you Envelope Punch Board, punch and score at 2" on all four sides.


Then go back and line up your score line with the point on the punch, punch and score again, do this on all four sides.


Score each point even with the rounded sides:


Fold on all score lines.


Take the small triangle shapes and pinch:


Bring edges together and crease, then burnish to make a crisp, flat tab on the inside.

 

Everything should look like this now:


Bring down the point at the score line and fold over one of the creased tabs. Do for all four points.


Place a 2 1/4" square scrap inside to hold everything in place and here you go!


Move around to square it up. If you want a lid just repeat. They will fit together nicely with a pinch!


I hope yu enjoyed today's tutorial! Have a great week!
