OCT. 29- A BABY GARLAND by Sandy

Let's get started !!

Hi everyone, I have a fun and easy Paper Garland tutorial for you today for the 
MFP Stamp Shop Blog Hop.

Baby Garland
 By Sandy Hentzel

Items needed:
MFPStamp Set
Momento Black Ink
Circle Punch
Coloring medium for images
(I used Prismacolor Pencils)
Glue
String/Ribbon/Cording/Twine
Plain Gift Bag


Step 1
Punch out your circles.
You will need to double them so if you are doing a banner
with 3 decorative circles,
then you will need 6 punched out.

Step 2
Stamp your images and Color. My preference is Momento Ink and Pencils,
but this is totally up to you on how you
want to decorate your garland circles


Step 3
Cut off a piece of the ribbon or cord that you are going to use.
 I used this Paper Cord that I received from MFPS.
You want at least 12 inches to play with.

Step 4
Line up your circles. Blank ones can go at the bottom.
Lay your cord over top.

Step 5
Place the glue in center of the bottom circle
and then place the decorated one on top.


Optional:
I punched out 5 scalloped ovals to place behind the circles
 to add more decorative interest.


Step 6
Poke a hole through the top corners of the gift bag
 (bag purchased at dollar store)
using a paper piercer, hook or hole punch

Step 7
Look cording through the wholes and knot. Then cut off the extra.
This can be as long or as short as you want.

Final Bag!!! There you go, all done
and you totally personalized your bag to fit the shower theme.


Best part is this garland can be for any holiday or event. And you can even make it vertical to a make a decorative hanging like I did these snow flakes for my daughter's Frozen Party.

Hope you enjoyed this tutorial on a very easy project.

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 ...
