Valentine Pop Up Box

Hey kids!  It's Cindy here for the Scrapbook Blessings Club today!  I've got a really fun Valentine Pop Up box project for you.  I've been seeing these cool little boxes all over the place lately and just had to make one :-)

TiP:  If you can, watch the video while you score and trim your box--pausing the video as needed. 

You will need:
scoring tool
paper trimmer
terrifically tacky tape (or similar double-sided tape)
patterned/solid papers

The video is from Splitcoaststampers.  She talks pretty fast but the directions are good.  I didn't have any problems.

The inside of my box.  For the paper on the top flaps I turned it upside down so the words will be right side up once the box is opened.

The outside of my box. 

Box all put together!  YAY!  Time to decorate-the fun part!!

I cut thin strips of white cardstock and attached them to the die cuts I wanted to have more height.  Then I just glued them in place.

Building Block Graduation Card

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 ...
