Fourth of July favors


Hello,
I had a special order of 4th of July favors and I made these using Hershey Nuggets. I created a shadow box before that made a square frame, but these had to fit 4 Nuggets. So, I did some "Stamp Math," and figured out the right measurements.
Here's the template: 
1. Start with a piece of cardstock measuring 6-7/8" X 7-3/8" 
2. Score at 1/2", 1", 1-1/2", and 2" on all four sides
3. Score at the second score line at 2-1/2" and 4-3/8" on both the top and bottom of the 6-7/8" sides

4. Cut off the 2" corners and at the top and bottom as shown


5. Fold all four flaps along the score lines inward.
6. Adhere the closest tab to the center of the cardstock on the top and bottom

7. Repeat on the left and right sides, tucking them into the first two sides to form the frame.





I did it in Real Red, Night of Navy, and Basic White and used strips of DSP measuring 1" x 3", some with Night of Navy and some with stripes, I couldn't find any stripes that went horizontal, so I made do.
Then, I die cut a star for the Blue Nugget. 


And here are the 30 favors I created, all packaged up after I put the sentiments on the other side. And you know me and how I sort the Nuggets.  The ones that had silver foil did not have nuts and the ones with the gold had nuts, so I matched the wire ties to distinguish them apart in case someone had a preference.

Diorama using Scenic Coast bundle and DSP

Hello,
When I saw this card I knew I had to try it. I've done another version of a diorama, but I like how the DSP continues on both sides. And the Scenic Coast dies work perfectly. Here is one that uses the sailboat dies.
And this one has the lighthouse die.
This is what it looks like from the top.  See how the DSP "sits" in the card center? And bonus(!) it does fit in an A2 envelope.
Here are the pieces you need to create this card.

Here is the full video tutorial to make this card.

First Edition book card

Hello,
When I first saw Deb Joy Smeak of "Delight of My Art" make this book card, I knew I had to try it. She called it an Elegant book, and I thought it looked like one of those First Edition books. I used two different corners for these two cards from the Joyful Squares dies.
Here is the inside of the card.
This is another color version.
And the inside.
And here's another version with a different style of corner.

Here are the pieces you need to make one yourself.
Here is the full video tutorial.

Phrases and Frames cards

Hello,
I really like the Phrases and Frames bundle, nice sentiments and really great frames. I used the Impressions Plate to make the designs really "pop."
I made a sampler to showcase the bundle (stamp set and coordinating dies) and you can really see the difference when you use the Impressions Plate in the Cut and Emboss machine. Can you see the how deeper the die cuts are?
Here is a card where I added some die cuts from Bordered in Beauty. I love how both bundles look together and I really love layering two different colors of the trim dies at the bottom.
                       
Another one with different color butterflies.
Here is another card, this time a "Happy Anniversary" one.
Can you see the "trim" I used in the bottom right corner? It was created with the negative of the trim dies from the other cards, pretty cool, right?
