Lots of Snuggles

Hello FebruaryWe are SO in love with this little man…seriously. My husband and other daughter arrived last night and they finally got to meet Huxley. We are each making sure we get our snuggles in.
Huxley Gordon 4He is 1 week old and we already cannot imagine our lives without him. Welcome to the family sweet Huxley Gordon.

Yesterday I showed you the decorative corner card…they also made a criss-cross card.Lift-Me-Up-4This is a super fun fold with a pull-out message. My team member Lorna Raczynski made a bunch of samples for our display boards in Toronto…this was one of them. I love the message.
Lift-Me-Up-5Here are the instructions on how to make a criss-cross card. You’ll notice that the coordinating Carried Away DSP is also used on this card.

Criss-Cross Card:

Supplies:           Two 4-1/4” x 11” pieces of cardstock (for your card base)
                              One 4” x 5” piece of patterned paper
                              One 3-3/4” x 5” piece of coordinating cardstock (for insert)
                              One 3-5/8”x 4-7/8” piece of neutral cardstock to stamp on (for insert)

Step 1:   Score both 4-1/4” x 11” pieces of cardstock at 5-1/2”.

Step 2:   Take one scored piece and cut it diagonally from centre top to the bottom left.

Step 3:   Take the other piece of scored cardstock and cut it diagonally from the centre top to the bottom right.

Step 4:   Tape both pieces together (using Fast Fuse or Tear & Tape). Make sure both long edges of the diagonal sections are on the bottom.

Step 5:   Cut the patterned paper in half diagonally and adhere them to your card front.

Step 6:   Tape the card base together using Tear & Tape.

Step 7:   Stamp on inside neutral piece and adhere to solid piece for insert. Slide it in.

Lift Me Up

One of my favorite stamp sets in the Occasions Catalogue is Lift Me Up. My club members got to play with this bundle in their January card club.

 They learned how to make a Decorative Corner Card…
Lift-Me-Up-1It has 4 panels and is super easy to make…it looks harder than it is. The base cardstock piece is Smoky Slate, the first mat is Night of Navy , and then I cut mats from the Carried Away DSP (one of the FREE Sale-a-bration offerings).Lift-Me-Up-3I used the 4th panel as my greeting space… a place to write a personal message. If it’s around the back, you won’t see it when the card is displayed.
Lift-Me-Up-2Follow these simple steps to make this type of card:

Decorative Corner Card

Supplies:           One 5-1/2” x 8-1/2” piece of cardstock (for your card base)
                              One 1” x 5-1/2” piece of same color cardstock (for the seam)
                              Two 1” punched circles of same color cardstock
                              Four 1-7/8” x 5-1/4” pieces of coordinating cardstock (for panels)
                              Four 1-5/8” x 5” pieces of patterned paper (for panels)

Step 1:   Score the 5-1/2” x 8-1/2” piece of cardstock at 2-1/8”, 4-1/4”, and 6-3/8” to make 4 equal panels. Make mountain folds on each of the score lines so they are all folded up towards you.

Step 2:   Score the 1” x 5-1/2” down the middle at ½”.

Step 3:   Decorate the panels as desired.

Step 4:   Glue the 1” x 5-1/2” piece along the sides to form your cube. Make sure it is on the inside so you don’t see it.

Step 5:   For the front, take the two 1” circles, fold them in half, and glue them to the centre fold of the base…then glue the focal point to those circles.
