Crate Card

by Helen Gullett

Make a pop-up card that looks like a classic wood crate.

Supplies

  • Kraft cardstock (patterned paper, optional)
  • Paper flowers (premade or diecuts, Darice Poinsettia set used here)
  • Sentiments (optional, Paper Poinsettias Mega digital stamp set from Graciellie Designs used here)
  • Paper trimmer
  • Kraft knife
  • Scissors
  • Bone folder
  • Double sided tape
  • Permanent adhesive glue
  • Other supplies as needed to complete the project (used here: Dare 2B Artzy Double Dots Circle Die Set and Oval Scalloped Framelit Dies)

Step-by-Step

  1. Step 1

    Prepare kraft cardstock base by cutting strips:
    2 1/4” x 11”
    1” x 4 1/2" (cut three)
    1” x 2 1/4"

  2. Prepare die cut flowers, sentiments, or other ‘fillers’ for your crate.

  3. Step 2

    Score the large strip at 2”, 5 1/2", and 7 1/2".

  4. Step 3

    Score the three 4 1/2" strips 1/2" from each end.

  5. Score the smallest strip down the center from a short side.

  6. Step 4

    You can leave the box as is without the crate look, or you can cut slats. Measure and mark at the end of each long side at 1/2” and 5/8” from the top and bottom, and 1 1/16” and 1 3/16” (center).

  7. Step 5

    Trace between the marks 1/8” from the score lines.

  8. Cut away the strips to create the slatted look.

  9. Step 6

    Fold and burnish all score lines.

  10. Fold the three 4 1/2" strips in a Z. Fold the small piece in half.

  11. Step 7

    The small piece will act as a hinge to glue the box together. Trim one side if needed so it doesn’t show through the slats. Use glue or double sided tape to create the box corner.

  12. Step 8

    Add double sided tap to the tabs on the inner strips.

  13. Adhere the tabs to the short sides of the inside of the box, lining the up the strips with the top of the box, and making sure the strips go straight across. Repeat with the remaining strips, spacing them evenly across. The box should fold flat.

  14. Step 9

    Adhere the flowers or other die cuts onto the inner strips to fill the box. Take care in positioning so the card can still fold flat.

  15. Step 10

    Embellish the front of the card if desired to complete the project.

Santa Tag Treat Holder

by Twila Davis

Use punches and simple shapes to make a fun holiday favor.

Supplies

  • Cardstock in red, black, white, yellow (scraps of Stampin' Up!® Real Red, Basic Black, Crushed Curry and Whisper White cardstocks used here)
  • Ribbon (White Glittered Organdy Ribbon used here)
  • Paper cutter
  • Scissors
  • Punches (SU Tag Topper, 1 3/8" Scallop Circle, 1/4" Circle used here)
  • Adhesive (Mono Liquid Glue and Dimensionals used here)
  • Treats and small bag to tuck inside

Step-by-Step

  1. Step 1

    To make Santa's suit:
    Cut red cardstock to 2" x 8 1/2". On the long side score at 3 3/4" and 4 3/4". Punch both long ends with a tag punch or cut with a tag or border die.

  2. Step 2

    To make Santa's belt:
    Cut black cardstock to 3/4" x 8 1/2". From this cut it down again to a 6" piece. Score at 1", 2", 4"and 5". From the remaining piece cut a piece to 7/8" x 3/4".

  3. Step 3

    Adhere the belt to the suit as shown using glue or other adhesive.

  4. Step 4

    Cut a piece of yellow cardstock to 1 1/8" x 1".

    To make Santa's beard:
    Punch a scalloped circle from white cardstock and cut some of the top off.

    For a button, punch out a 1/4" circle with black cardstock.

  5. Step 5

    Attach the yellow cardstock to the front of the belt and add the 7/8" x 3/4" piece of Black on top of the Yellow piece with a Dimensional.

    Layer the two white cardstock pieces together with glue and adhere to the top of the suit underneath the small hole.

  6. Step 6

    Add some small treats to a bag and put inside treat holder. (The belt will hold treats in, thus bigger treats may not require a bag.)

  7. Step 7

    Cut a 5" piece of ribbon and tie it to the top to complete the project.

Sky View Scene

by Dina Kowal

Use masks and stencils to create a starry night sky.

Supplies

  • Circle mask (A Colorful Life Designs Marvelous Mask Circles used here - a die cut circle would work fine)
  • Blendable inks in sky colors, light, medium and dark (Impression Obsession hybrid inks used here)
  • Blending tools
  • Cloud stencil (A Colorful Life Designs Cloud Edger Set used here - if you don't have a cloud stencil, click HERE to see how to use a scalloped circle punch, or cut your own)
  • acrylic paint (optional)
  • Paint brush
  • Tree stamp (Stampscapes Pine and Rubber Stampede Oak Tree used here)
  • Compatible ink (can stamp over acrylic paint - Versafine used here)
  • Other supplies as needed to complete the project (used here: Impression Obsession You Light sentiment, Sizzix tag die, Scor-Buddy, ball stylus, Neenah cardstock)

Step-by-Step

  1. Step 1

    Prepare a cardstock panel. Mask off a circle for the moon in your scene. It can be placed anywhere, but a centered position toward the top is best for placement of trees later.

  2. Step 2

    Select three ink colors for the sky – light, medium, and dark. Beginning with the light color, brush ink lightly around the masked moon.

  3. Continue inking with the medium and then the darkest color, working out to the edges of the panel. Soft and uneven inking will add to the texture of the clouds.

  4. Step 3

    Use the medium color ink to brush lightly against the edge of the cloud mask.

  5. Continue around the panel to create a ring of clouds around the moon. Add more clouds to fill the space as needed.

  6. Step 4

    Use a ray stencil to add some lightly brushed rays around the moon, OR use the straight edge of a piece of paper to create a ray effect. Align the paper across the center of the moon, and brush ink lightly across the edge.

  7. Work around the moon, adding rays until you have the effect you want.

  8. Step 5

    If you have a stencil set with the negative piece, use it to highlight the edges of the clouds with white paint. A white colored pencil could also be used.

    TIP:
    If using a blending brush for paint, tap out most of the paint before lightly applying it along the edge of the stencil.

  10. Step 6

    Remove the moon mask. Dilute some of the white paint and splatter it onto the panel with a brush (roll the brush in the paint and tap the brush against your finger to create small droplets. Additional dots can be added by dipping the end of the paintbrush into the paint and dotting on the panel. Allow the paint to dry.

  11. Step 7

    Position a tree stamp at the bottom center of the card panel, pointing toward the moon. Ink and stamp with an ink that will dry over paint (solvent, hybrid, archival, Versafine).

  12. Note the position of the moon in the stamp positioner. Try to keep it in the same place as you rotate the panel for the next stamp impression. Stamp around the edges of the panel until you have the fullness that you want in your forest.

    TIP:
    Place a magnet in the center of the moon – this makes it easy to rotate it in place.

  13. Step 8

    Fill in toward the bottom of the panel with additional tree images if desired.

  14. Step 9

    The splattered paint should have created some raised spots on the moon. Brush with grey ink to highlight them and add some texture to the moon.

  15. Step 10

    Heat set the ink to dry, especially where it covers painted areas.

  16. Step 11

    Embellish and complete the project.

Variations

  1. Change the sky to a daylight scene by using warm colors.

Standing Pop-Up Card

by Christy Fulk

Pop-up layers allow this fun fold card to stand.

Supplies

  • Cardstock (Stampin’ Up!® Blushing Bride, Crumb Cake, & Basic White used here)
  • Patterned paper (SU Whimsy & Wonder Specialty Designer Series Paper used here)
  • Scoring tool (SU Simply Scored Scoring Tool used here)
  • Strong adhesive (SU Tear & Tape Adhesive used here)
  • Adhesive (SU Stampin’ Dimensionals & Stampin’ Seal used here)
  • Other supplies as needed to complete the project (SU supplies used here: Whimsical Trees Stamp Set, Christmas Trees Dies, silver foil, Misty Moonlight, Mossy Meadow, & Tuxedo Black Memento inks; Crumb Cake, Mint Macaron, Misty Moonlight, & Polished Pink Stampin’ Blends alcohol markers, Die-Cutting Machine, & Wintry 3D Embossing Folders)

Step-by-Step

  1. Step 1

    Cut a 4 1/4” x 10 1/2” piece of cardstock for the card base. With a 10 1/2” side along the top, score the piece at 1/2”, 1 3/4”, 3 3/4”, and 5”.

  2. Cut a 3” x 5” piece of cardstock (same color as card base used here). With a 5” side along the top, score the piece at 1/2” and 1-3/4”.

  3. Step 2

    With a 4-1/4” side of the card base on top, and the score lines on the bottom, attach a 4” x 4” piece of patterned paper to the top of the card base. Make sure the top and side cardstock borders around the patterned paper are even. Fold all of the score lines up, and then flatten back out.

  4. Turn the piece over, and put the score lines are on top. Attach a strip of strong adhesive along the top, narrow section. Attach a 4” x 1-3/4” piece of patterned to the center of the third section.

  5. Step 3

    Fold the third score line from the bottom up. The smaller patterned paper should now be showing on the bottom and everything should be lying flat against each other. Remove the paper backing from the strong adhesive on the narrow section. Fold the narrow section back, and attach it to the card base.

  6. Bring the folded score lines down a bit to form a rectangle, box-like base.

  7. Step 4

    Put the 3” side (with the score lines) of the second scored piece on the top, and attach a 2-3/4” x 3” piece of cardstock or patterned paper to the center of the bottom section. Fold all of the score lines back and then flatten back out. Put a piece of strong adhesive along the top, narrow section of the piece.

  8. Turn the piece over so the score lines are still on the top. Put a piece of strong adhesive along the bottom edge of the piece.

  9. Step 5

    Turn the piece back over, keeping the score lines on the top. Remove the paper backing from the top strip of strong adhesive. Fold the bottom score line back. Line the folded score line with the top edge of the card base, centering the piece left and right, and attach.

  10. Step 6

    Fold the top piece up, and remove the paper backing from the strong adhesive strip. Fold the bottom “box-like” section flat so the bottom section showing is cardstock, and the top section is the smaller patterned paper.

  11. Fold the top score line of the top piece down, lining the score line with the top edge of the card base as before, and attach the bottom of the piece with the flattened “box-like” piece of the card base.

  12. Step 7

    Cut 4” x 5 1/4” piece of neutral cardstock. Stamp/decorate, if desired. Attach the piece to the back of the card base.

  13. Step 8

    Keeping the card flat, decorate it as desired, and then pop it back up so it stands up to complete the project.
