Fun Fold card for the 4th

Hey kids!  Cindy, back on the SBC blog today.  I've got a cute, fun fold card for the 4th of July.  The utube video I watched is here.

TiP:  If you don't have a circle punch use your cricut and the centerpoint function along with any cart you have that cuts a circle.


 11" x 4 1/4" cardstock.  Score at 4 1/4" and 8 1/2".
 Punch/cut your circle out of the top flap.  Your score line should be at the middle of the circle.  You could put the circle more to the left or center.  Play with it and have fun :-)
 Opening the card.  The smaller star is the stop that holds the top flap.  I used pop dots on it.
Inside the card.

Recipe:
Plantin Schoolbook - circle @ 2 1/2", 2 1/4"  star @ 2", 1 1/4"
Cuttlebug embossing folder - stars
Stampendous stamp -inside the card
pop dots
Dress It Up buttons

Thanks for stopping by today.  I hope I've inspired you to get crafty and try this fun fold :-)

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 ...
