We accomplished another sucessful Scrapfest :0) My brain and body are still not functioning at 100%. I didn’t get any scrapbooking pages done this Scrapfest, but I am posting a few other things I did complete. Not really sure what I did while I was there this time except socialize with the girls, and cook Chick N Dumplins..yum.
First up is the Monster Card… inspired by one of the young lady’s tee shirts.

Here are a couple more card ideas. The black and yellow card was made using my Spellbinders.

I like the little popped up Happy Birthday banner. Just cut a strip of cardstock, and then score. One fold goes in and the other out on each side.

I will be posting a few cards I got finished at the crop yesterday.

Here is a neat technique. Emboss your design onto black paper with Silver. Color base coat in with light color pencils, smooth out with your finger, color darker shades next. This was inspired by a post here, if you would like to read more.

Tic Tac Treat

I used the large Tic Tac containers for this project. For the base of the project I used the Cricut cart George. I was able to cut 6 at a time.

Score at 2 3/8 and 3.
Fold and crease.

If you would like for your cover to tie shut, it’s easier to add the ribbon now so the ribbon can be covered with paper.
Now you can choose how you would like to decorate your cover. I punched small hearts so that the Tic Tacs would show through. I think a larger heart punched would be nice, but my punches were not the correct size.
Be sure to use extra tacky tape when you attach your Tic Tac container.

Teepee Card Tutorial – some assembly required

This card is so easy.

Start by cutting three 4×4 squares from the same color of card stock. I cut mine from different colors so that you can see more clearly.

Score each square from end to end.

Lay one square down. Using adhesive attach another square as shown in the picture. You will be gluing the front of the green paper to the back of the striped paper(white back)

Flip this over and glue the other square down as seen in this picture. You will be gluing the back side of the pink paper onto the front side of the striped paper Notice the direction the creases are going.

Your card should fold up into a tee pee shape now. You can attach it together by applying velcro, cutting a slit in the back side, or removable tape etc.

When finished card will fold to fit inside a greeting card size envelope, this card could be made larger for for a 5 3/4x 8 3/4 which I got from Walmart. Some assembly will be required by the receiver. :0)
