Sweet Treat Card

Hi everyone! Sandy here to share today's Tuesday Card Fold project. I wanted to share something that is easy to make with just some simple scoring and folding. But first, today's tip..... Score Tape is a must have in your craft box. It is one of the best tapes to use for bags and boxes.  Christmas was so hectic around my home this year. I thought I was already until I realized that I didn't have a little something for the kiddos' teachers (the night before the last day of school before break this weekend, oops). So I decided to make a quick sweet-treat card for them. How to make a Sweet- Treat Candy Card Here is what you will need: trimmer, bone folder, ribbon, scissors, craft knife, cardstock 8 1/2x11, score tape, a finished card and candy First you will score at 3cm, 6cm, 9cm and 12cm horizontally and then turn paper vertically and score at 3cm, flip and score other side at 3cm  Next, cut at score lines to 3cm vertical fold and then trim off

Never too early to start!!!

Decorative Pillow

Hello, Friends... And Merry Christmas!  Today I want to show you a pillow I made for a family member.   But first, my tip:  It's Christmas!  Love one another.   Check List: Pillow Insert - purchased at Walmart Pillow Cover - purchased at Walmart Flourish - purchased in Silhouette store Font - Precious Print-Cut-Iron-On - Square1 Decorative Couch Pillow using Square1 Iron-On I purchased an 18" square pillow insert and cover, both from Walmart.  The cover was $7.99 (I think) and the pillow was around the same in cost.  I should have bought these items at Hobby Lobby.  They had a bigger selection and I could have used their 40% off coupon. The swirl flourish was purchased in the Silhouette store for .50 cents.  I color-filled it in black. "Garrett" text was created using the Precious font (found at dafont.com). Flourish Swirl and Garrett text were first printed on Square1 Iron-on using my home printer.  It was then cut using the Silhouette.  Nex

Okay, grab the following supplies and let's get started :-) Versamark pad Embossing Tinsel (or you can use embossing pwd and glitter) Heat tool embossing folder baby wipe Steps: 1-open the embossing folder and generously apply Versamark to one side  (I used the raised side and got glitter coverage on the background of the embossed image) 2- put your cardstock inside the embossing folder and run it through your Cuttlebug 3- apply your embossing tinsel (this has glitter right in it)  or you can mix embossing powder with glitter about half and half ...should look like the photo below: I started with a white piece of cardstock.  As you can see I missed a little spot with the Versamark...oops. 4- put excess embossing pwd back into the container.
