<div style="text-align: justify;">
Good evening. I'm a little late sharing my project for the December <a href="http://scor-pal.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Scor-Pal Challenge</a> with you. I've been hit by pneumonia and it's been a bit of a struggle to do much of anything these days. However, I got a new item that I wanted specifically for this months challenge so I pushed myself and got my project finished at the last minute. So what is this months challenge ... <a href="http://scor-pal.blogspot.com/" style="text-align: center;" target="_blank">Scor-Pal More than One Score Challenge #55 is ...</a><a href="http://scor-pal.blogspot.com/" style="text-align: center;" target="_blank">"Anything Goes Christmas"</a>.<br />

I used the Away in a Manger Scor-Die for my Luminaire. Unfortunately, it is out of stock.</div>

The base of the Luminaire was made with my <a href="https://scor-pal.com/store/scor-pal/scor-pal-eighths/?zenid=3qravfvr3e38tg1njrc4gg4aj4" target="_blank">Scor-Pal</a> and Snowfall Acetate. Next I adhered an <a href="https://scor-pal.com/store/scor-tape/scor-tape-8-1-2-x-11-adhesive-single-sheet/?zenid=3qravfvr3e38tg1njrc4gg4aj4" target="_blank">8-1/2" x 11" Scor-Tape Sheet</a> to Papertrey Ink Dark Indigo cardstock. I cut the page in half, and proceeded to cut four (4) pieces of the Away in the Manger Scor-Die. I added the pieces onto the Acetate, used my scissor to curve the corners, and closed my Luminaire with <a href="https://scor-pal.com/store/scor-tape/scor-tape-3-8-wide/?zenid=3qravfvr3e38tg1njrc4gg4aj4" target="_blank">3/8" Scor-Tape</a>. I put a tealight holder and candle in the center of the Luminaire and lit it up. It looks really beautiful in the dark.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Good morning everyone. I hope everyone had a safe and productive Halloween. π» We always have trick-or-treaters the Sunday before Halloween during the daylight. The hours are restricted and I really love it because I don't have to worry about our doorbell ringing late at night, after 10pm. That was a normal occurence when we lived in Chicago, and I sure don't miss that. I love seeing all of the little ones in their costumes and this year there was a couple that were really amazing.<br />
<br />
Back to our regular scheduled program. It's the 1st of the month I have a NEW <a href="http://scor-pal.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Scor-Pal Challenge</a> to share with you.<br />

This month we are celebrating our DT Coordinator's Birthday as she is celebrating a "Special Birthday" herself. I missed the part of "Special" when I created my card for today. Even though I made an oops, I'm happy I was able to finish my project while I'm sick. π </div>

Today's card was created with some "NEW" to me products available at <a href="https://scor-pal.com/store/?zenid=18cks08rj9udvulalp1m65bdc4&main_page=index" target="_blank">Scor-Pal</a>. <a href="https://scor-pal.com/store/accessories/spectrum-noir-aqua-watercolour-cardstock-pack-of-8-sheets/?zenid=18cks08rj9udvulalp1m65bdc4" target="_blank">Spectrum Noir Aqua Watercolour Cardstock</a> and <a href="https://scor-pal.com/store/accessories/spectrum-noir-aqua-pens-12pc-set-nature/?zenid=18cks08rj9udvulalp1m65bdc4" target="_blank">Spectrum Noir Aqua Pens 12pk - Nature</a>. This is my first time using the Spectrum Noir products so it took me a couple tries to figure it out. The markers are different than what I normally use so I had some adjustments to make. I colored both of the foxes using this medium and then fussy cut them out.<br />
<br />
The shaker part of my card was created with an ATC Fold Out Shake Box Die Set that I picked up from Scor-Pal. Unfortunately, it is no longer available. However, they do have a great section of <a href="https://scor-pal.com/store/scor-dies/?zenid=18cks08rj9udvulalp1m65bdc4" target="_blank">Dies in the Store</a>.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Good morning! Today I'm sharing the Candy Wrap Tutorial that I created for the <a href="http://scor-pal.blogspot.com/2018/10/scor-pal-more-than-one-score-challenge.html" target="_blank">October Scor-Pal Challenge</a>.<br />

I created this diagram to go with my instructions on how to make a Candy Wrap for a Hershey King Size Candy Bar; <i>Actual Size of Candy Bar is 2-1/4βH x 1/2"W x 7βL.</i><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFiAZd1zRflz8DTGYm-GnRRsXXbcbaQizq72rSQnnV40244T_GOI6HZt3X5T4AkpbtcGdQqlgQy1xjbHFPsxkNyRMn_9H1_qFKyxwY0XfYcRDfjFHbuTNBqOi0xDOdpBeTnZnrW23zUO2l/s1600/Candy+Wrap.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="437" data-original-width="410" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFiAZd1zRflz8DTGYm-GnRRsXXbcbaQizq72rSQnnV40244T_GOI6HZt3X5T4AkpbtcGdQqlgQy1xjbHFPsxkNyRMn_9H1_qFKyxwY0XfYcRDfjFHbuTNBqOi0xDOdpBeTnZnrW23zUO2l/s400/Candy+Wrap.png" width="375" /></a></div>
<u>To get the height:</u><br />
Add the height of the bar to the width of the bar, double that number, and then add a bit extra for the closure flap. That gives you (2-1/4" + 1/2") x 2β = 5-1/2β. I added 1-1/2β to that which gave me 7β.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<div>
<u>To get the length:</u></div>
<div>
Take the length of the candy bar and added 1/2" to each side <i>(the 1/2" represents the width of the candy bar)</i>. That gives you 7β + 1/2" + 1/2β = 8β.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The paper size for a Hershey King Size Bar that you will need to make the candy wrap is: 7βH x 8βW</div>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
Now comes the instructions for making the candy bar wrap.<br />
β’<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>With the 8β side of your cardstock at the top of your scoreboard - Score at 1/2" and 7-1/2β.<br />
β’<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>With the 7β side of your cardstock at the top of your scoreboard - Score at 2-1/4β, 2-3/4β, 5β and 5-1/2β.<br />
β’<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Burnish all of the Score lines.<br />
β’<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Cut the Score Lines for the entire section(s) highlighted in <span style="background-color: yellow;">yellow</span>. This section become your closure flap.<br />
β’<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>The arrows shown above point at the Score Lines that need to be cut; these lines are only cut to the 1/2" mark, as shown in <span style="background-color: red;">red</span>.<br />
β’<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Add your desired adhesive to the <span style="background-color: #cccccc;">grey</span> area. I used 3/8β Scor-Tape.<br />
β’<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Next you will fold the 1/2" tabs towards the center; bring the two (2) 2-1/4β sides up, remove your Scor-Tape, then fold the side with the Scor-Tape over the other flap to form a pocket.<br />
β’<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Decorate as desired.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>

With Halloween coming up fast I decided to make some treat boxes. I made something like this many years ago for my daughter when she was in school. I remembered the concept, but not the actual design so I did some measuring, scoring, cutting, taping, and gave it a go.<br />
<br />

These were so FUN, and EASY to make. I will be back on the 15th with a tutorial which will include diagrams for each size. It is very easy to change out the candy once you know the basics on making the treat boxes.<br />

Good morning everyone. It's hard to believe that Summer is almost over. School has started, and we only have a couple more weeks until the first day of Fall. Of course, since it the 1st of the month I have a NEW <a href="http://scor-pal.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Scor-Pal Challenge</a> for you.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
I can normally do Clean and Simple, but this time I was stumped. You know that more than 1-Score part of the Challenge. Plus I've been challenging myself by making all of the albums and 3D projects lately.<br />

My card features The Stamps of Life Coffee4two stamp set. I watercolored the coffee mug, added the sentiment, and then fussy cut it out. Now for the tricky part ... more that 1-Score. I scored my cardbase, and then added 4 score marks on the panel which I popped the Coffee Cup on with <a href="https://scor-pal.com/staging/scor-tape/foam-tape-3-4-wide" target="_blank">3/4" Foam Tape</a>. I then added some enamel dots to my card.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Material used to create today's projects:<br />

- Papertry Ink Rustic Cream and Kraft Cardstock<br />
<br />
This is not my best work, but I hope you like today's card. You will find an assortment of Clean and Simple projects over on the Blog. I hope you stop for more information about this months <a href="http://scor-pal.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Scor-Pal Challenge</a>, see what the other designers created to inspire you, and join in the FUN. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Good Morning. I finally had time to edit my photo's for the Basket Weaving Tutorial. There will be a LOT of photos so please be patient as you scroll through. I changed the size of my basket, but the process is the same regardless of the size. The picture below shows my original basket (5" x 2" x 2") along with the new basket (4" x 4" x 2").</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The photo tutorial takes you through the process of making the 4" x 4" x 2" basket. The first thing I did was make a sketch. I wanted a 4" square basket with a 2" height.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-j90cgK0xjC0BlQpkR86YT3mWl3zxPDTCWZaAVnI0l3rbZAfc8dbTQvLv9FV1Kkuyoz86b_XfMgP0yvEYzg7MzmaIAeQxIdwBLayHGauckRnM_NHa9HXBaTquJleUQe7LJDqFi5CP7RbD/s1600/20180826_184942.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="912" data-original-width="951" height="191" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-j90cgK0xjC0BlQpkR86YT3mWl3zxPDTCWZaAVnI0l3rbZAfc8dbTQvLv9FV1Kkuyoz86b_XfMgP0yvEYzg7MzmaIAeQxIdwBLayHGauckRnM_NHa9HXBaTquJleUQe7LJDqFi5CP7RbD/s200/20180826_184942.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Once the sketch was done <i>(as shown on the left)</i>, I did the math and noted that I needed a 9" x 9" square piece of cardstock to work with. The arrow on the right of the photo represents a 1/2" margin around.<br />
<span style="text-align: left;">I cut a piece of 12" x 12" cardstock to 9" x 9", put it on my <a href="https://scor-pal.com/staging/scor-pal/scor-pal-eighths/?zenid=em8bnj52gkn9d6djmumug9fl81" target="_blank">Scor-Pal Eighths</a>, and scored it as follows: </span><span style="text-align: left;">1/2", 2-1/2", 6-1/2" and 8". I then turned my cardstock</span><span style="text-align: left;"> to the left a half-turn; </span><span style="text-align: left;">scored the same measurements as above.</span><br />
<br /></div>

Once you scored your paper you want to cut out the squares in the corner, as depicted by the yellow squares on my drawing above, and as shown in the photo below.</div>

It's a little tricky to do, but lightly score the 1st 1/2", and score from the 1/2" line to the 2-1/2" line every 1/4" as shown in the photo below. <i>(This section is represented by the green section of my drawing.)</i><br />

Using a ruler and cutting knife, cut the 1/4" scor-lines in all 4 sections.<br />

Burnish the 1/2" and 2-1/2" Score lines to get the square shape. The brown you see in the picture below is lightweight chipboard. You can use a cereal box for this area. I cut the chipboard to 3-7/8" square. This provides extra stability for the basket.</div>

Using the left over 12" cardstock, I cut out (10) 1/4" pieces. You will need 2 pieces for each row you weave.<br />
<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The center picture above shows how you weave the 1/4" piece in and out of the slits you made. The right picture above shows the inside end of a 1/4" piece. I bent it up and adhered <a href="https://scor-pal.com/staging/scor-tape/scor-tape-1-8-wide/?zenid=em8bnj52gkn9d6djmumug9fl81" target="_blank">1/8" Scor-Tape</a> to the bottom and once the first row was complete I secured the edge. You will have extra length of the 1/4" piece; you will cut the extra length off.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The above pictures show the weaving of the 2nd row. You will weave in the opposite direction. Well sort of. You actually weave thru the same slits, but in the opposite direction. I hope that makes sense.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
My basket has 5 rows that I weaved thru the panel slits. You will want to gently push each row down as you are weaving the paper through it. The last piece is the trickiest. You have to weave it in and out, sort of like sewing, as shown in the left photo below. The right photo shows the basket once the weaving is finished.</div>

You will want to fold the 1/2" panel into the basket. I added <a href="https://scor-pal.com/staging/scor-tape/scor-tape-1-8-wide/?zenid=em8bnj52gkn9d6djmumug9fl81" target="_blank">3/8" Scor-Tape</a> to the inside of each panel, as shown below. When you are ready to fold the panel in, remove the tape and fold down and burnish the section. Then go to the opposite end, directly across, and do the same process. Before securing the other 2 sides I folded them in to see if they fit smoothly. If they don't, miter the corners just a smidge before adhering each panel.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
To give my cream cardstock some color I used Prima Adobe House Ink and applied it to the outside of my basket.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmc3as6CDE16vkUxlzYAWWzIFXK7RsRsjTzXbMqqYdf2q0kcNHRcFlu4TkOnwlcCv2O22BIKwRn31g5y7inLISysN90AOouq6ce8VFpz6-o_lT2yKp-ar4XnWjQMfdv5jBG80Ozz5d9ELK/s1600/20180826_185320.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1013" data-original-width="1600" height="252" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmc3as6CDE16vkUxlzYAWWzIFXK7RsRsjTzXbMqqYdf2q0kcNHRcFlu4TkOnwlcCv2O22BIKwRn31g5y7inLISysN90AOouq6ce8VFpz6-o_lT2yKp-ar4XnWjQMfdv5jBG80Ozz5d9ELK/s400/20180826_185320.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The next step is to create the border around the basket. I'm sorry I didn't take pictures of this part. You will need (4) 1" x 4" pieces of cardstock scored at 1/2", burnish. I added <a href="https://scor-pal.com/staging/scor-tape/scor-tape-1-8-wide/?zenid=em8bnj52gkn9d6djmumug9fl81" target="_blank">3/8" Scor-Tape</a> to the inside of the burnished piece; both sides. Since I added the ink to my basket, I did the same for these pieces. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Put the creased edge of the 4" piece over the side of the basket. Remove 1 side of the Scor-Tape, adhere to the inside of the basket first, then remove the Scor-Tape from the other side and adhere it to the outside of the basket, and burnish. Just like 1/2" panels above, I added the 4" piece to the 4" section directly across from where I just put the border piece on. I repeated this process for the other 2-sides of the basket. I did have to miter the inside of these pieces a smidge to make a crisp square.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Next, I cut 2 more pieces of cardstock to 1/4" x 9". I applied color to the edges, added <a href="https://scor-pal.com/staging/scor-tape/scor-tape-1-8-wide/?zenid=em8bnj52gkn9d6djmumug9fl81" target="_blank">1/8" Scor-Tape</a>, and wrapped it around the border I just added. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Using a ruler and pencil I marked off 1" sections on the border. I used my Crop-A-Dile to punch holes where the pencil marks are, and secured tiny red brads into the holes I made.</div>

To make the handles on this basket I used (1) 1/2" x 9" piece of cardstock, scored it at 1/4"; fold and burnish. I put <a href="https://scor-pal.com/staging/scor-tape/scor-tape-1-4-wide/?zenid=em8bnj52gkn9d6djmumug9fl81" target="_blank">1/4" Scor-Tape</a> in the center and burnished the piece together. I cut the 9" piece in half, applied ink to the edges, and used my Crop-A-Dile to add the holes. I lined up the handle and used the tiny red brads to secure them.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I hope this tutorial on how I made the basket makes sense. If you have question, please feel free to leave them as a comment and I will get back to you.</div>

Until next time, I hope you have a marvelous day and weekend.<br />
<br />
Take care,<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Good morning! I'm the Pinterest Inspired Hostess this month over at the <a href="http://scor-pal.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Scor-Pal Blog</a>. What does that mean. Well ... I find something on Pinterest that I would like to try and re-create the project, but also make it my own. I was inspired by this <a href="https://www.pinterest.com/pin/97742254398536695/" target="_blank">One Sheet Mini Album</a> created by Virginia Nebel from the <a href="https://scrapbookandcards.com/a-one-sheet-mini-album-with-virginia-nebel/" target="_blank">Scrapbook & Cards Today Blog</a>.<br />

This lovely mini-album is beautifully made using only a 12" x 12" sheet of cardstock. I love the design, and then added a little bit of me into it.<br />
<br />
I went with a Summer Mini Album since our Challenge Theme this month is about Summer. It also helped that I had left over Carta Bella Summer Splash DP to work with.<br />
<br />

<br />
I started with the basic design that Virginia has in her tutorial. I took a 12" x 12" sheet of cardstock, and scored is at 3", 6", and 9" on one side, turned the sheet and scored at 6".<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCcC7uxsrQlKhUAfp828DlC6fzatbQV1HWYnuYmuWi9-cnQrydNecK6Mw68SMlSyoExCLiEtgZw1Pr5Qwu0GKLJEjZwMLlYY8cKn5-bpU0oIaVXel-2CUnNwlutBdd8yBFwxu-3PuhSB55/s1600/20180821_123019.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1529" data-original-width="1600" height="381" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCcC7uxsrQlKhUAfp828DlC6fzatbQV1HWYnuYmuWi9-cnQrydNecK6Mw68SMlSyoExCLiEtgZw1Pr5Qwu0GKLJEjZwMLlYY8cKn5-bpU0oIaVXel-2CUnNwlutBdd8yBFwxu-3PuhSB55/s400/20180821_123019.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
As shown in the photo above, I used my ruler and craft knife to cut out the center score lines; fold and burnish the score lines.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnGMHF2di3pScLoF_QwyW7K2ng3oEXnapEW0-BQ2admD-aU4mkYk4-lpbqyVKaOhYsek7-biqG41DSXSuXtRjDW9x_VVIAZOfr1jHnpIsdQCkanaZ0kj7K2WIimavfqrE2wfZyyM6PQZU_/s1600/20180821_123049.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="986" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnGMHF2di3pScLoF_QwyW7K2ng3oEXnapEW0-BQ2admD-aU4mkYk4-lpbqyVKaOhYsek7-biqG41DSXSuXtRjDW9x_VVIAZOfr1jHnpIsdQCkanaZ0kj7K2WIimavfqrE2wfZyyM6PQZU_/s400/20180821_123049.jpg" width="246" /></a></div>
<br />
Fold the piece in half, and then push the sides together to see a square in the center, as shown below.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpMfcyiM86bABsVqzUVLw_C4017g7-9ixuHhmjNsOZrK26wDkVDOMxjoJWNAK6eQCVzt_edv1i61ui8pHq_Xbh9KBeJRbkM_5cWSUjJj_n1ZJTW6rrqnoCZmI5iZ-alBp1KSfL_jgkQskn/s1600/20180821_123155.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="909" data-original-width="1600" height="226" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpMfcyiM86bABsVqzUVLw_C4017g7-9ixuHhmjNsOZrK26wDkVDOMxjoJWNAK6eQCVzt_edv1i61ui8pHq_Xbh9KBeJRbkM_5cWSUjJj_n1ZJTW6rrqnoCZmI5iZ-alBp1KSfL_jgkQskn/s400/20180821_123155.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
I laid the paper down, and folded it as shown in the first photo below. As you can see in the first photo, the arrows show that there are openings in the bottom. I used my 1/4" Scor-Tape to close these areas, as shown in the other two photos. However, I left the top openings alone.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQjEowFFyzQBnuj7oXCRtug6BRc5EU4t2IRkMB_cGV3i18ayhCbiTDR2uwZGw8tUoAtd1x9HcyI4tspmW4_vd4M9qSUzXuSOsznko7wJKu3x4VgBs92AzJnK8ncBWOwaZgqhyphenhyphenNAZFCBr16/s1600/PicMonkey+Collage01.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="555" data-original-width="1600" height="222" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQjEowFFyzQBnuj7oXCRtug6BRc5EU4t2IRkMB_cGV3i18ayhCbiTDR2uwZGw8tUoAtd1x9HcyI4tspmW4_vd4M9qSUzXuSOsznko7wJKu3x4VgBs92AzJnK8ncBWOwaZgqhyphenhyphenNAZFCBr16/s640/PicMonkey+Collage01.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
I then folded and reburnished the cardstock, as shown in the first photo on the left below. Now for my addition to the design. Since the edges are not even, I added a closure to the Mini Album with magnets.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjba6xPkvT1sPSgM7K-jm1KWyUHs3Ztl9GJnxRzOZLhwj5Y5kERZ-U6R9-IwcgoVM_KQirjgrWPo0fU1HrsoYrLa_-P9i_njxShe7pANkPgZCdvtFsLzChUE7H7E6_GbFIvmPj-gAWwR5ms/s1600/PicMonkey+Collage03.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="795" data-original-width="1600" height="316" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjba6xPkvT1sPSgM7K-jm1KWyUHs3Ztl9GJnxRzOZLhwj5Y5kERZ-U6R9-IwcgoVM_KQirjgrWPo0fU1HrsoYrLa_-P9i_njxShe7pANkPgZCdvtFsLzChUE7H7E6_GbFIvmPj-gAWwR5ms/s640/PicMonkey+Collage03.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
The closure is 2-3/8" x 6". With the 2-3/8" at the top - score at 1/2" and 7/8". Burnish the score lines. I put 3/8" Scor-Tape to the 1/2" flap on the inside, and then adhere it to the back of the mini album. I added large magnets to close the album as shown above.<br />
<br />
The next addition I made was to the inside. There are two open areas at the top after folding that I didn't seal. I made and added two fold down flaps to one of them. You will see them more clearly when I reveal the finished album.<br />
<br />
To create the flaps I cut two (2) pieces of 3" x 4-1/2" pieces of cardstock. With the 4-1/2" side at the top - score at 1/2". I trimmed off a sliver from the 3" side of the cardstock as shown in the first photo. Miter the edges and join these 2 pieces together with scor-tape, as shown in the second photo.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAq5O53ASwPbC0Kf3T2CggdJWDABxFD9ZZ0DXNvAT2pPnAwr1G57HO6VGQfkyk-6sdK6OKv5PP0aNi0Eqm2uc2XsjkmwVGysEzN9UJaTLQCg11PKBBhlxkuKvAj597Sz-SqXB4KKpAu2oH/s1600/PicMonkey+Collage02.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="492" data-original-width="1600" height="195" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAq5O53ASwPbC0Kf3T2CggdJWDABxFD9ZZ0DXNvAT2pPnAwr1G57HO6VGQfkyk-6sdK6OKv5PP0aNi0Eqm2uc2XsjkmwVGysEzN9UJaTLQCg11PKBBhlxkuKvAj597Sz-SqXB4KKpAu2oH/s640/PicMonkey+Collage02.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I added Scor-Tape to the sides standing up, and then slid them into the top slat. This is a bit tricky. I would remove only one side of the scor-tape, insert into the opening, and then take the Scor-Tape off of the other side. I learned my lesson on that part. It was very hard to do with the Scor-Tape off of both ends. My apologies for not taking a picture of this part before I decorated the pages.<br />
<br />
The following photos show how I decorated the inside pages. I put stickers onto cardstock, cut them out then added 1/2" Scor-Tape to the bottom, or top, and added them to my pages to hold extra mini-photos or journalling pages.<br />
<br />

Good Morning. Please accept my apologies for not having the Tutorial posted for the Basket Weaving project I shared at the beginning of the month. Life has gotten in the way. I am in the process of recreating a basket. This time it will be 4" x 4" x 3". A different size I know, but I promise the concept is the same. I should hopefully have this finished over the weekend, and posted next week.<br />
<br />
Until then, I hope you have a marvelous day and weekend.<br />
<br />
Take care,<br />

There is nothing that says "Summer" to me more than Sunscreen and Aloe Vera for those sunburns. So for today's project I made myself a little basket to house the little bottles in. Yes, I truly made the basket. Years ago I made a couple of Longaberger Baskets, and since they are in my craft room I was inspired to try and make one out of paper. Mind you, it's only <strike>5" x 3" x 3"</strike> 5" x 2" x 2" <i>(corrected on 08/30/18)</i>.<br />
<br />
Here are a couple of pictures showing how I weaved the paper to make the basket.<br />

It took me a couple tries to get the first two rows to work. Once I remembered how to weave the paper it went smoother. It was time consuming but so worth it.<br />
<br />
Here are some more pictures that focus more on the basket I made.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Good morning. This weekend I decided to make an album for the Las Vegas Country Craft Creations Retreat that I went to back in February. I need an album to hightlight all of the FUN times I had.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I started with a BoBunny 6" x 6" Bare Naked Binder that I picked up from my local craft store. <a href="https://www.countrycraftcreations.com/collections/artisan-cardstock/products/artisan-linen-cardstock-black" target="_blank">Black Artisian Linen Cardstock</a> was used for the cover of my album. I picked up some Vegas stickers, regular and 3D, to decorate the cover and use throughout the album.<br />

<br />
I had left over <a href="https://www.simplestories.com/collection/i-am..." target="_blank">Simple Stories "I AM"</a> Paper Pack from the retreat, along with a 8" x 6" Paper Pad that I picked up at my local craft store. These papers were used to decorate the inside of my ablum. The material hanging off of the hanger, above right, is from a t-shirt that my friend Monica caught at the Thunder Down Under Show we went to.<br />

I put a pocket on the left side of the page, above, and put my airline tickets stubs inside it along with my room key. I forgot to return that. Oops!!!<br />

My ticket stub from the show was added to the back of the photo book. You will see a lot of black mats throughout the album. You can remove them and add your pictures, or just place your pictures in the marked area.<br />

Gold coins were passed out during the Retreat. I used these as photo place-holders. I even added some journalling pages.<br />

For the back of the album, on the inside, I created a waterfall to hold more pictures - 10 total.<br />
<br />
Now I need to get my pictures printed and added to the album. There are over 1,000 pictures taken by the group so choosing what to use will be interesting.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I hope you enjoyed seeing the album I decorated. Until next time ... Enjoy!</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Good morning. I hope everyone had a safe and happy holiday. Today I'm popping in to share a couple birthday cards that I made for my son.<br />
<br />
Both cards were created with THoltz Watercolor Cardstock, watercolor markers, and a paintbrush.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_-3d8uoHe7Bu1Hyzw7w3OhIKTcezW6m6kTdrxuAYIJdWZ9HR6PkI6fBOx92uNT6YMD8UBG8_UJtvOXcw0y4VSJ-NGdvK2_hBp7yLq0towYoUjCtZ8rKUZztcpRHW7L7vrxXYfmKapc7lY/s1600/2018-07-06+Nick+Jr+Bday+Cards+%25281%2529.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1002" data-original-width="1600" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_-3d8uoHe7Bu1Hyzw7w3OhIKTcezW6m6kTdrxuAYIJdWZ9HR6PkI6fBOx92uNT6YMD8UBG8_UJtvOXcw0y4VSJ-NGdvK2_hBp7yLq0towYoUjCtZ8rKUZztcpRHW7L7vrxXYfmKapc7lY/s640/2018-07-06+Nick+Jr+Bday+Cards+%25281%2529.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I went with a 3-1/2" x 6-1/4" base for the first card. This one is from my husband and I, and it held my son's birthday money. The design was created with a variety of Art Impressions Watercolor Stamps ... <a href="https://www.artimpressions.com/shop/wc-foliage-set-1-4051/" target="_blank">4051 Foliage Set 1</a>, <a href="https://www.artimpressions.com/shop/wc-flower-set-4052/" target="_blank">4052 Flower Set 1</a>, <a href="https://www.artimpressions.com/shop/wc-tree-set-1-5010/" target="_blank">5010 WC Tree Set 1</a>, and <a href="https://www.artimpressions.com/shop/wc-truck-mini-set-5011/" target="_blank">5011 WC Truck Mini Set</a>. The sentiment is from my stash. I gave the card a red, white and blue base/background because his birthday is so close to the 4th of July.<br />

<br />
The second card is A4 in size, and is the card my daughter gave to her brother. I used a Dinasaur Set that I have, and the Art Impression <a href="https://www.artimpressions.com/shop/wc-foliage-set-1-4051/" target="_blank">4051 Foliage Set 1</a> for the grass. I fussy-cut all of the dinasaurs and trees, and used 3D foam squares and Art Glitter Glue to add them to my card.<br />
<br />
We celebrated my son's birthday last night, and he loved the cards. My grandson thought they were pretty cool. Especially, the dinasaur card.</div>

Good morning everyone. June is going out with a bang here in Northern Illinois. Our heat index on Friday and Saturday was in the 100's. July is now here and it actually feels like Summer. Canadian's are Celebrating Canada Day today while the US will be celebrating our Independence on the 4th of July. Mind you, you would think it was already the 4th of July with the fireworks going off around the neighborhood. Now on to this months <a href="http://scor-pal.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Scor-Pal Challenge</a>.<br />

I love watching video tutorials on-line, and then making the items myself. Over on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AuthentiquePaper/" target="_blank">Authentique's Facebook Page</a> they offer live tutorials, and all of the Desktop Accessories I made to share with you today were from those tutorials. I've included the links for the projects if you want to try them yourselves.<br />
<br />
First up is a <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AuthentiquePaper/videos/1742899629086957/" target="_blank">3-Tier Tower</a>.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Instead of adhering them together I added <a href="https://www.countrycraftcreations.com/products/basic-grey-large-magnet" target="_blank">Basic Grey Large Magnets</a> inside each of the towers so that I can keep them together, or seperate them as shown in the photo's below. The rose in the front of each tower lets me know where they connect.<br />

Second is the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AuthentiquePaper/videos/1807138185996434/" target="_blank">Trio Box Set</a>. This is such a cute set of containers! I know I will be making a LOT more of these as gifts. They can be used anywhere ... from your craft desk to your kitchen to your bedroom.<br />
<br />

<br />
The last item is <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AuthentiquePaper/videos/1800207486689504/" target="_blank">Desk/Trinket Box</a>.<br />

<br />
I don't know if you can tell from the pictures, or not, but I added pearls on the bottom of each of the Desktop Accessories. This raises them up a bit so they are not laying flat on your table.<br />

Good morning! I'm the Pinterest Inspired Hostess this month over at the <a href="http://scor-pal.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Scor-Pal Blog</a>. What does that mean. Well ... I find something on Pinterest that I would like to try and re-create the project, but also make it my own. I was inspired by this <a href="https://www.pinterest.com/pin/97742254398171785/" target="_blank">Fold Flat Soap Box</a> created by Sam from the <a href="http://pootles.co.uk/" target="_blank">Pootles Blog</a>.<br />
<br />

<br />
The boxes Sam created are 1" x 2" x 4". Sam's tutorial can be found <a href="http://pootles.co.uk/2014/10/15/2-fold-flat-soap-boxes-1-piece-cardstock/" target="_blank">here</a>. I really like the idea of being able mass produce boxes that fold flat for future use. However, I wanted a bigger box to hold a set of notecards and <a href="https://www.cutcardstock.com/collections/a1-envelopes-4-bar" target="_blank">A1 envelopes</a>.<br />

The dimensions of my box needed to be 1" x 5-1/4" x 3-7/8", so I drew myself a grid on scratch paper, and started calculating the measurements. It was pretty easy to adjust the size to my needs. I took the width 5-1/4" and added 2" to get a width of 7-1/4". Then I took the height 3-7/8" (3.75") and multiplied it by 2 to get 7-1/2", and added 3" to get the height of 10-1/2". The 2" and 3" respectively represent the 1" side of the box.<br />

The box I made is black so I created another box in white so you can see the Score-Lines.<br />
<br />

I cut a piece of cardstock to 7-1/4" x 10-1/2". Scored 1" on all 4-sides. With the 10-1/2" side at the top of my Scor-Pal, I Scored at 4-3/4" and 5-3/4".<br />

Using a ruler I gently scored the corners, as shown above. I drew the lines in with a pen after I burnished all of the 1" lines, as shown below.<br />

Using your fingers gently fold at the corner scor-lines, and then use your bone folder to burnish the lines.<br />

Fold down the sides, as shown below, and cut the dashed lines (I wrote dotted lines on the photo). Make sure the you cut the correct side of the folds, or like me, you will have to remake your box. π<br />

The dashed lines arrow show where to put your Scor-Tape. I used 1/4" Scor-Tape for my box. Please excuse the upside down picture (below) ... I have the "Top of the Box" at the bottom. Ooops.<br />

Burnish the Scor-Tape, remove and adhere the edges together. It is best to do one side/section at a time.<br />

I didn't take the second batch of Scor-Tape off of the white box. The picture below shows the box folded, and ready for storage. When I am ready to use the box I will remove the Scor-Tape, and fold it together.<br />

Good morning! The year is going by so fast. It's hard to believe that June is already here, and that in a couple of months I will be a Great-Aunt again twice over. This months <a href="http://scor-pal.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Scor-Pal Challenge</a> is perfect for the anticipated arrival of a prescious bundle of joy, so I made a Baby Album.<br />

I was inspired by <a href="https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=oa.2073225519579519&type=3" target="_blank">Tamra's Frontier Folio/Album</a>, and followed her tutorial. I used <a href="https://www.countrycraftcreations.com/collections/artisan-cardstock/products/artisan-linen-cardstock-natural-linen" target="_blank">Artisan Linen Cardstock</a> and Lightweight Chipboard to create the base of the album, along with <a href="https://www.countrycraftcreations.com/products/basic-grey-large-magnet" target="_blank">Basic Grey Large Magnets</a>. The album is 8"x10" so I was really happy that I got in some of the <a href="http://scor-pal.com/product-info/scor-tape/scor-tape-8-1-2-x-11-adhesive-single-sheet" target="_blank">8-1/2"x11" Scor-Tape Sheets</a>. It makes adding the Chipboard to my Cardstock a LOT easier. <a href="http://www.photoplaypaper.com/little-girl-boy/" style="text-align: left;" target="_blank">PhotoPlay About A Girl 12"x12" Paper Pack</a><span style="text-align: left;"> was used to decorate the album.</span><br />
<br />
The picture above, of the cover, has a pocket on the right side that I put some cut-aparts from the DP inside. The "Baby Girl" is Small Talk Sticker that I picked up at Michael's.<br />

<br />
The picture above shows the album open. The left side is a side booklet with pockets. The center top flap folds up and there is an upside down waterfall at the bottom with pockets.The right side is a waterfall that I secured with decorative Acetate, and stickers from the collection. There are a LOT of pages for adding photo's, journalling, etc.<br />
<br />
Here are some close-up pictures of the inside.<br />

Good morning. My blog posting has slowed down, and will continue in that direction for the forseeable future. I am no longer a memeber of Rubbernecker Stamps Design Team, and currently only with Scor-Pal. That being said I thought I would pop in and share the last card I made for Rubbernecker Stamps.<br />

Good morning! April has left us with a bang here in Northern Illinois. We actually had temperatures in the mid 70's today! I hope this streak continues because I need my warmer weather so I can start working in my yard. Speaking of yards, I'm hoping to get a garden going in between the bushes in the front of my house. I love flowers, but I don't have a green thumb. Now that we are talking about flowers, how about I share this months Scor-Pal Challenge with you.<br />

As I mentioned above, I don't have a green thumb. However, I can make pretty flowers out of paper.<br />

For today's old fashion stationary/card I pulled out the last of my Webster Pages Wonderful Fall Collection and my Spellbinders Build a Sunflower Die D-Lites. I've had this die for some time, and had an awesome time making my Sunflower. I used cream cardstock for my card, added the beautiful paper and distressed the edges for some contrast. I made a bellyband for my card, and added my Sunflower.

Using the last scrap of <a href="http://scor-pal.com/product-info/scor-tape/scor-tape-6-x-6-adhesive-sheets-5-per-pack" target="_blank">Scor-Tape Adhesive</a> that I have, I put it behind the little bird in the teacup, and then fussy cut it out. I love how easy it was to adhere this to the inside of my card. I left a lot of room for writing a letter to my Book Buddy.<br />

I knew exactly what I was going to do when this challenge came up. I always get hot chocolate from Starbucks so I kept one of the wraps and some stoppers to use for today's card <i>(picture shown below)</i>. I cut down the wrap, turned it inside out, scored, and created a flower pot. I applied Tim Holtz Vintage Photo Distress Ink over the flower pot. I then cut the top off of all of the stoppers, and put them on the side.<br />
<br />
I picked up Recollections Fine Crepe Paper at Michael's to use with the Mixeable <a href="http://www.rubbernecker.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=5109d&Click=371" target="_blank">Flower Stack Die Set</a>. I layered the flowers together, and attached them to the stopper which I cut down to get the right layereing. Using the <a href="http://www.rubbernecker.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=5110D&Click=371" target="_blank">Small Leaf Group Die</a> and shimmery green paper I cut out the leaves, and attached them to the stoppers. I then glued all of the flowers into my flowerpot, wrapped some ribbon around the pot, and adhered it to my card. I put 3D Foam Squares behind the flowers to keep them popped up. Cream colored Enamel Dots were added to the center of each flower.<br />
<br />
The Happy Birthday sentiment is part of the <a href="http://www.rubbernecker.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=3029&Click=371" target="_blank">Best Wishes, Etc. Stamp Set</a>. I stamped the sentiment with Ranger Jet Black Ink, and then cut it out with my <a href="http://www.rubbernecker.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=5022D&Click=371" target="_blank">Nested Circle Dies w/Pierce</a>. I added another layer of the circle behind the sentiment, and used 3D Foam Tape to add it to my card.<br />
<br />
Here is a picture of the items I recycled.<br />

<br />
Speaking of April Fools Day. It's time for a NEW Scor-Pal Challenge. I have a LOT of pictures to share with you today, so I hope you stick around to see my entire post. This is not a prank, but check out the theme for this months challenge.<br />

My great nephew is graduating from High School this year and his Grandmother, my older sister, asked me to make something special for him. I searched thru Pinterest to find something that would stand out. I saw a LOT of awesome ideas, but I wanted to include a surprise element. One of my friends recently shared a project with a drawer built into a bench. This got me thinking!<br />
<br />
The photo above looks like a Graduation Cap, but there is so much more to it.<br />
<br />

The top part of the Graduation Cap is actually a card that I decorated with Paper Studios Graduation Stickers. The tassle was made out of Red Doily Thread that I glued under the black button. That is not the big surprise. π<br />

Let's go backwards for a minute. This gift is going to a "young man" so it needs to be sturdy. That being the case, I made the base/box of my Graduation Surprise out of <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Grafix-Medium-Weight-Chipboard-25-Pack/dp/B001F6O7HU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1522558829&sr=8-1&keywords=6x6+black+chipboard" target="_blank">6"x6" Black Chipboard</a>. I left one side open so that I could add the surprise. I meantioned a drawer earlier in my post. See those knobs above. They are not really attached to a box. Let me show you.<br />

<br />
I made a Graduation Album to fit inside my Graduation Cap Card/Box. I've never designed my own project from start to finish before, and this was so much FUN. I incorporated elements from different designer friends, but today's project is truly my own.<br />

The cover and back of the album are plain because I put it inside my Graduation Cap Card/Box. Now let's have a look inside.<br />

I made the album using <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Grafix-Medium-Weight-Chipboard-25-Pack/dp/B001F6O7HU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1522558829&sr=8-1&keywords=6x6+black+chipboard" target="_blank">6"x6" Black Chipboard</a>, Black and Red <a href="https://www.countrycraftcreations.com/collections/artisan-cardstock" target="_blank">Artisian Cardstock</a>, along with <a href="https://www.countrycraftcreations.com/collections/authentique/products/accolade-6x6-paper-pad-by-authentique" target="_blank">Authentique Accolade 6"x6" Pad</a>, the stickers and cards from the <a href="https://www.countrycraftcreations.com/collections/authentique/products/accolade-12x12-collection-pack-with-sticker-sheet-by-authentique" target="_blank">Authentique Accolade Paper Collection</a>, <a href="https://www.countrycraftcreations.com/products/basic-grey-large-magnet" target="_blank">Basic Grey Large Magnets</a>, my <a href="http://scor-pal.com/product-info/scor-pal/scor-pal-eighths" target="_blank">Scor-Pal Eighths</a> plus TONS of <a href="http://scor-pal.com/scor-tape" target="_blank">Scor-Tape</a>. That little Metal Tassele in the center I picked up at Hobby Lobby in the Jewelry Section. It came in a set of 3, so I can make more of these.<br />

The left side of the album has several flaps. They open from left to right, and up and down. There is room to add 5"x5"photos, and also do some journalling.<br />

As stated above, a LOT of <a href="http://scor-pal.com/scor-tape" target="_blank">Scor-Tape</a> was used in creating this album; 1/4", 1/2", 3/4" and 1".<br />

Today card features the beautiful <a href="http://www.rubbernecker.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=1046-04&Click=371" target="_blank">Lily Cross</a>. Using Jet Black Archival Ink I stamped the image on watercolor paper, colored the image using my watercolor markers, pallette and paintbrush. Once dry, I used a pencil and one of the <a href="http://www.rubbernecker.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=5004D&Click=371" target="_blank">Nested Oval Dies</a> to trace an oval around the image. I then cut the image/oval out with my scissors. I cut out a couple more ovals; one from light pink which I distressed and one from cream cardstock. I layered the pieces together over the panels I created for the card. The <a href="http://www.rubbernecker.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=1050-05&Click=371" target="_blank">Miracles Happen sentiment</a> is a great match for my image. I didn't want to cover the Lily Cross so I cut the sentiment, and place part on top and part on the bottom. To even out my design I added the cream enamel dots in the opposite corners. <br />

There are so many FUN Silly Animals offered by <a href="http://www.rubbernecker.com/?Click=371" target="_blank">Rubbernecker Stamps</a>, and I chose to work with the <a href="http://www.rubbernecker.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=3027&Click=371" target="_blank">Laundry 1 Set</a> because I really love the dog in this set.<br />
<br />
To start I stamped the images with Archival Jet Black Ink on watercolor paper, and then used my watercolor pens to color the dog and clothes. Once dry I cut them out using the <a href="http://www.rubbernecker.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=3027d&Click=371" target="_blank">Laundry Days 1 Coordinating Dies</a>. I then cut a piece of watercolor paper with one of the <a href="http://www.rubbernecker.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=5007D&Click=371" target="_blank">Nested Rectangle Stitched Dies</a>, and created a some mud at the bottom. I cut a slit in the dog's mouth to added the socks, put some of the other muddied clothes behind the dog and adhered him to my muddy frame. I cut out 2 more rectangle frames with the die. I stamped clothes from the set on the cream cardstock, distressed the edges with ink, and then layered the pieces of my card together on a kraft card.<br />
<br />
The "sentiment" is one of three in the set, and is a perfect match for this muddy dog. I stamped the sentiment onto my watercolor paper, and cut it out using one of the <a href="http://www.rubbernecker.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=5022D&Click=371" target="_blank">Nested Circle Pierced Dies</a>. I muddied it up a bit with ink, distressed the sides, and added it to my card with 3D Foam Tape.<br />

Good morning! It's time for a NEW Scor-Pal Challenge. This month our <a href="http://scor-pal.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Scor-Pal More than One Score Challenge #46 is "All Things Bright & Beautiful"</a>.<br />
<br />
I just got back from a Crafting Retreat in Las Vegas on Sunday, and couldn't resist making a portfolio similar to what we created there. Ginger is an awesome teacher and this portfolio goes together really fast. My portfolio measures 4" x 6" vs. the 8-1/2" x 10-1/2" one we made at the retreat so I tweaked it to make it my own.<br />

I always give my son a list of crafty goodies that I would like for Christmas, and one of the items I received is a package of <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Grafix-Medium-Chipboard-Natural-25-Pack/dp/B0013LB7R0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1519883996&sr=8-1&keywords=4x6+medium+weight+natural+chipboard" target="_blank">4"x6" Med Weight Natural Chipboard</a>. This is what I used to create the cover for my portfolio. I covered the chipboard with <a href="https://www.countrycraftcreations.com/collections/artisan-cardstock/products/artisan-linen-cardstock-natural-linen" target="_blank">Artisan Linen Cardstock</a> by using the last of my <a href="http://scor-pal.com/product-info/scor-tape/scor-tape-8-1-2-x-11-adhesive-single-sheet" target="_blank">Scor-Tape 8-1/2" x 11" Sheets</a> that I cut down to size along with some <a href="http://scor-pal.com/product-info/scor-tape/scor-tape-3-8-wide" target="_blank">3/8" Scor-Tape</a>. This is the quickest and easiest way to adhere chipboard to your cardstock.<br />
<br />
Using a variety of sizes of <a href="http://scor-pal.com/scor-tape" target="_blank">Scor-Tape</a> ... <a href="http://scor-pal.com/product-info/scor-tape/scor-tape-1-4-wide" target="_blank">1/4"</a>, <a href="http://scor-pal.com/product-info/scor-tape/scor-tape-1-2-wide" target="_blank">1/2"</a> and <a href="http://scor-pal.com/product-info/scor-tape/scor-tape-5-8-wide" target="_blank">5/8"</a> ... I covered my album with a 4-1/2" x 6-1/2" paper pad from Heidi Swapp called "Hello Today" to decorate it. The flowers and sentiments on the cover are from Simple Stories newest release called "I AM" that I got at the Retreat.<br />
<br />
You may be wondering why I used so many different sizes of Scor-Tape. The simple answer is that some sizes work better than others, depending on which section I'm working on.<br />

<span style="text-align: justify;">The cover of the portfolio is chipboard that I covered in the same manner as the base of the portfolio. I used <a href="https://www.countrycraftcreations.com/products/basic-grey-magnets-small" target="_blank">Basic Grey Small Magnets</a> under the design paper to hold the cover closed. The small magnets were also used on the left and right side panels, as shown in the picture below.</span></div>

I added a small pocket to the bottom of the center panel.

I added one of the stickers from the Simple Stories pack and distressed the edges. This is a cute way to add some journalling to your projects.<br />

Good afternoon. I have a NEW Challenge to share with you featuring products from <a href="http://www.rubbernecker.com/?Click=371" target="_blank">Rubbernecker Stamps</a>. T<span style="text-align: center;">his fortnight our </span><a href="http://rubberneckerblog.com/" style="text-align: center;" target="_blank">Challenge #28 is to "Make it Shake"</a><span style="text-align: center;">. </span><br />

<br />
The focus of today's card features the New <a href="http://www.rubbernecker.com/product-p/5109d.htm?Click=371" target="_blank">Mixable Flower Stack Die (5109D)</a> and <a href="http://www.rubbernecker.com/product-p/5110d.htm?Click=371" target="_blank">Small Leaf Group Die (5110D)</a> that were released in January. I created my own DP for the flowers and leaves by dropping <a href="http://www.rubbernecker.com/product-p/cbset-1.htm?Click=371" target="_blank">Ken Oliver Color Burst - Brights</a> onto <a href="http://www.rubbernecker.com/product-p/wcp.htm?Click=371" target="_blank">RN Watercolor Paper</a>, sprayed it with water with my Mini Mister, and put it on the side to dry.<br />
<br />
While my DP dried, I pulled out the <a href="http://www.rubbernecker.com/product-p/5004d.htm?Click=371" target="_blank">RN Nested Oval Die Cut (5004D)</a> to cut my window in my panel. I lined the panel up with my cardstock and added the Anniversary Sentiment from the <a href="http://www.rubbernecker.com/product-p/3029.htm?Click=371" target="_blank">Best Wishes Etc Stamp Set (3029)</a>. Clear cardstock was added behind the oval panel with Scor-Tape. 3D Foam Tape was added around the oval, and the whole panel. I then added my shaker items inside the oval, and added the sentiment panel over the oval panel. The shaker panel was added to my cardbase, and put on the side.<br />
<br />
Time to cut out my flowers and leaves. Since there are five (5) different sized flowers in the <a href="http://www.rubbernecker.com/product-p/5109d.htm?Click=371" target="_blank">Mixable Flower Stack Die (5109D)</a> I cut out three (3) sets. I crisscrossed layered 3 of the flowers from the set together, and faux layered them on my card. I slid in the leaves until I found the layout that worked for me, and then adhered the flowers and leaves. I added pearls to the center of each flower, and then in the upper right hand corner.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Good afternoon. I have a NEW Challenge to share with you featuring <a href="http://www.rubbernecker.com/?Click=371" target="_blank">Rubbernecker Stamps</a>. T<span style="text-align: center;">his fortnight our </span><a href="http://rubberneckerblog.com/" style="text-align: center;" target="_blank">Challenge #27 is "Anything but a Card"</a><span style="text-align: center;">. </span><br />
<span style="text-align: center;"><br /></span>
<span style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: justify;">I wasn't sure what I would do for this challenge until I happened upon some Cream/Off White Imagin8 Canvas Pouches at Michaels a couple of weeks ago. I decided to try my hand at making the Canvas Pouch my own.</span></span><br />
<span style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: justify;"><br /></span></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1cR6c-rTrAHlwTCHS9fX_VkU2fOHw9iCb_rcYplZ-GSDwn1WvFQwnvOFDiY7pkT-RpVfII7RhE2a67SwgaCU-7VvH9bHTJLo5kZLmMIMbjVKB6a6JDlSPV-V_rRKYp8bBbpDOPzIkMOYq/s1600/2018-02-13+Ch%252327+%25282%2529.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1320" data-original-width="1600" height="528" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1cR6c-rTrAHlwTCHS9fX_VkU2fOHw9iCb_rcYplZ-GSDwn1WvFQwnvOFDiY7pkT-RpVfII7RhE2a67SwgaCU-7VvH9bHTJLo5kZLmMIMbjVKB6a6JDlSPV-V_rRKYp8bBbpDOPzIkMOYq/s640/2018-02-13+Ch%252327+%25282%2529.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I put <a href="http://www.rubbernecker.com/product-p/cbset-1.htm?Click=371" target="_blank">Ken Oliver Color Burts Brights Pack (Ultramarine Blue)</a> into a Mini Mister that I picked up at the Rubbernecker Stamps Booth, shook it up, and sprayed both sides of the Canvas Pouch. Note: I didn't saturate the pouch entirely with the Blue Color but I could have as it has a liner inside. I then hung the pouch up to dry.<br />
<br />
Once the Canvas Pouch was dry, I pulled out the <a href="http://www.rubbernecker.com/product-p/3020.htm?Click=371" target="_blank">Butterflies are Free Stamp Set</a> and used Ranger Archival Jet Black Ink to stamp one of the butterflies, and the sentiment on one set. I then colored the butterflies with Marvey Fabric Markers that I've had in my craft room for some time now.<br />
<br />
Here is a closer look of the sentiment ...<br />

<br />
Now for the back side of the pouch ...<br />
<br />

The dotted lines behind the butterflies were applied with the same Fabric Markers used to color in the butterflies.<br />

Good evening. This week I made a Valentine's Day card just for FUN! So here we go ...<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyqoaLWwuz3ICqclAF7C8y7wfPXXtuWPhWhAkKRoe5ZECzZ4gG8uAibRaw_yWedzI7IFQBvDC3fRVR8WBLZrfvfn1hidm6JdgYL6L6-IgXrvGOy-dU5i1K3kgqFKeaydAMnzlM9chbDQtd/s1600/20180205_120130.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1318" data-original-width="1072" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyqoaLWwuz3ICqclAF7C8y7wfPXXtuWPhWhAkKRoe5ZECzZ4gG8uAibRaw_yWedzI7IFQBvDC3fRVR8WBLZrfvfn1hidm6JdgYL6L6-IgXrvGOy-dU5i1K3kgqFKeaydAMnzlM9chbDQtd/s400/20180205_120130.jpg" width="325" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I pulled out some oldie but goodies from my craft room stash. My Nestabilities Classic Hearts Dies, Avocado Arts Sweet Treat Sweeties stamp set from Jan 2012, and Tim Holtz Festive Berries Distress Ink. I was going to make a Shaker Valentine's Day card, but ... I forgot to add the clear cardstock before I added the 3D Foam Tape. Live and learn. LOL</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsEzTJ2uM1HWQ3bHKSidWKLDMV94fYAJi6w_qLZ-Wfinz8WF_C9f7RokA6S0vPXgCdE9hxPmJFEaCkMHyj7J8d1xxIyn4EjMJab_po4I3MFJnhpuP3AsUtUlzmd1YdTnaJi6oi8amTcJg0/s1600/20180205_120152.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1231" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsEzTJ2uM1HWQ3bHKSidWKLDMV94fYAJi6w_qLZ-Wfinz8WF_C9f7RokA6S0vPXgCdE9hxPmJFEaCkMHyj7J8d1xxIyn4EjMJab_po4I3MFJnhpuP3AsUtUlzmd1YdTnaJi6oi8amTcJg0/s400/20180205_120152.jpg" width="307" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The sentiments from the Sweet Treat Sweeties stamp set were perfect for the inside of the hearts. I cut the happy valentines day sentiment apart to fit it in the largest heart. I used a dauber to apply the Distress Ink to add the color around the hearts and the white cardstock, and then added it to my cardbase.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Super sweet, clean and simple card for my valentine! π</div>

Good morning! The <a href="http://scor-pal.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Scor-Pal Challenge</a> is with a NEW Challenge this month, and it's an easy one. <a href="http://scor-pal.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Scor-Pal More than One Score Challenge #45 is "ANYTHING GOES"</a>.<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
For this months project I made a Wallet Mini Album inspired by <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MOflKTPGXs4" target="_blank">Kim Kan't Stop Crafting Tutorial</a>.</div>

This is a quick and easy Mini Album that you can change up to meet your needs. Perfect for craft fairs, shower gifts, or gifts just for FUN!<br />
<br />
I used <a href="https://www.countrycraftcreations.com/collections/artisan-cardstock" target="_blank">Artican Cardstock</a> in Burgandy and my <a href="http://scor-pal.com/product-info/scor-pal/scor-pal-eighths" target="_blank">Scor-Pal Eighths Board</a> to create the Wallet. I used <a href="https://www.countrycraftcreations.com/collections/basic-grey-magnets/products/basic-grey-large-magnet" target="_blank">Basic Grey Large Magnets</a> to hold the Wallet closed. I went thru all of my design paper and pulled out the Webster's Pages WonderFALL Collection to decorate my Wallet, which I've had for a couple of years. The hubby would say it's about time you used the DP. π<br />
<br />
I did some fussy cutting for the cover. I layered the butterfly and the flower/bird section of the DP onto the cardstock with <a href="http://scor-tape/" target="_blank">6x6 Scor-Tape Adhesive Sheet</a>. I then cut around the bird and flowers to overlay it on my cover; I used the Adhesive Sheet to do this. Once the butterfly was cut out I used 3/8" Scor-Tape on part of the butterfly to attach it to my Wallet. I popped half of the butterfly up by bending it. It will lay flat for storage purposes, or putting in your purse.<br />
<br />
While decorating the Wallet I switched up the <a href="http://scor-pal.com/scor-tape" target="_blank">Scor-Tape</a> that I used. Sometime it was <a href="http://scor-pal.com/product-info/scor-tape/scor-tape-1-4-wide" target="_blank">1/4"</a>, <a href="http://scor-pal.com/product-info/scor-tape/scor-tape-1-2-wide" target="_blank">1/2"</a>, and <a href="http://scor-pal.com/product-info/scor-tape/scor-tape-3-8-wide" target="_blank">3/8"</a>. It just depended on what I felt like using. There was no rhyme or reason for switching. Since the flowers/bird hang over on the cover I added a removeable glue dot to keep this section from bending.<br />
<br />
