Faux Frame Card Fold Tutorial

By

Hi Friends, Sandy here from Scrapbook Blessings, and I have a great tutorial for you featuring The Stamping Chef digital stamps.  This is a fun way to show off those creations. Lets get started!


  • Start with 5.0 square of double sided pattern paper 


  •  Score the points at 1.25 and 1.75"in, rotate 90 degrees and do all 4 points


  •  Fold 1.25" score line in towards card


  •  Fold 1.75" score line out



  • Get your center picture ready. Here I made my own background measuring at 3x3 


  • Using pop up squares, attach them to inside panel like below
  •  (had to trim my center image because I stamped to close to the edge, you can see it below but no worries, the flap will cover that up so it is actually 3 x 2.75)


  •  No add more pop up squares to outside edge like below


  •  fold back the flaps


  • I added my digi stamp to the outside this time, just did a triple layer of pop ups (look under her head, lol)

  • 5.5" square card base is need to finish the card off

 

Here you have it... A Faux Frame Card Fold!  Very easy to do!

Hope you have a blessed day and thanks for stopping by,

My Favorite Craft Tools and Giveaway!!!

By
Hi everyone, Today's video is a fun one for me. Since getting back into crafting I have noticed that I am pulling certain items over and over again and thought it would be fun to share with you. Two years ago, I took a step back from crafty and downsized 75% of my craft room.  However with just these awesome tools, I have been able to get back into the swing of things and I don't miss having a larger craft room. Personally, I feel every crafter should have these starting out.  They make creating easy and fun!

Building Block Graduation Card

By
Hello, everyone! Melissa here on to share a "building block" style card with you. I made this one graduation themed, since there are a ton of graduations going on right now. Hope you enjoy this card, and are inspired to try it out yourself. Here is the tutorial I followed from Split Coast Stampers. To make it easier, I will give you all the measurements, here. It looks harder than it is, I promise. Start with a piece of cardstock in your desired color that is 5.5 x 10.5. Put the 10.5 inch side along the top of your score board or paper trimmer, and score at 3.5 inches and 7 inches. Fold the first score line in a mountain fold, and the second in a valley fold. You should end up with a "z" fold card. The next part can get a bit tricky, so make sure you watch the video to fully understand what I am about to explain. On the back side of the "valley" fold, take a ruler and pencil and mark these measurements: 3/8 1 3/8 1 5/8 2 5/8 2 7/8 3 7/8
