Tutorial Thursday - Mailbox Treat Box

 

Hello everyone! Welcome to Tutorial Thursday!

Kristine here with you today to share a tutorial with you!

Today's tutorial is:  Mailbox Treat Box

When I was looking through my stash of LLLC dies and came across the fabulous Double Stitched Dome Die, I thought it was perfect for creating the front/back of a mailbox! So with Valentine's Day just around the corner, how cute would this be for stuffing some small valentines or candy in as a gift! So I created a template and am so giddy with the results that I just HAD to share it with you all... and it only takes 2 dies to make the base mailbox -- add more of your choice to decorate as you wish!

Pop-up Valentine's Card Tutorial

Hello everyone!

Henryka here today with a Pop-up Valentine's Card Tutorial.

I will show you how to step by step make a Valentine's Card 

for someone special to your heart.

We are going to use papers, shapes and sentiments from December 2017 Card Kit.

You can buy it now for just 36.50$!!!

First, you need cut a card 20 by 15 cm.

You score it on longer side halfway through the page.

 Fold your card in half.

On the bending side of the card, you measure distances as in the picture.

Make cuts as in the picture.

Now you need to make score lines. See picture below.

This is how the centre will look when folded in half.

Put the card back in half and measure distances as in the picture.

Make cuts as in the picture.

Make score lines.

View of the inside of the card.

Put the card back again in half and measure distances as in the picture.

Make cuts as in the picture.

Make score lines.

The final view of the centre of our card.

Now, you need a base for your card. From white paper cut a piece of 15.5 by 20.5 cm.

Score in halfway through the page.

You need to attach your inside of the card to the white base. You can do it with a glue or double-sided adhesive tape. It's up to you :) 

The inside of our card is ready and we can start the nicest part - decorations. 

I have used shapes and sentiments from December 2017 Card Kit.

You can, of course, use anything, cut out elements with metal dies, coloured images etc.

I have attached all my elements with glue like that to keep a 3D effect of my pop-up card.

Here is a front of my card. Decorated with papers and sentiments from December 2017 Card Kit.

That's all! Our Pop-up Valentine's Card is ready!

Hope you will try to make your own Valentine's Card!

Thank you for your visit!

Have a lovely day!

Henryka
