Paisley Birthday Card

Welcome back! I made a birthday card for my best friend today! And here's how it was done ; ) I also wanted to let you know that I will be making videos in a bit when I buy a camera stand. My old one broke : ( but no worries! I'm purchasing one soon! Enjoy the tutorial ; )

The supplies I used:

Stampin' Up! Word Window Punch

Stampin' Up Modern Label Punch

Ignore the 3 heart punch I decided to use the Stampin' Up 5 Petal Punch

Corner Rounder

Some matching ribbon

Stampin' Up Teeny Tiny Phrases Stamp Set

Brown ink

Purple, Blue, White Cardstock

Some Patterned Paper

Cuttlebug

Swiss Dot Embossing Folder

I cut a 8.5x11 Purple cardstock and scored it at 4 1/4 to creat a  standard 4 1/4x5.5. Then I took my patterend paper, isn't pretty?? I got it from hobby lobby a while back and I had to use it! But I cut that at 4 1/8 x 5 3/8. Then I adhered the two together.

I cut a piece of white cardstock 3x 2.5 and ran it through the cuttlebug between the swiss embossing folder! Idk about you but swiss dot is my favorite! It goes with everything!

Now I cut a piece of blue cardstock about 2.5x1 and then I corner rounded the white and blue cardstock edges!

This is my favorite punch set, Stampin' Up! Word Window Punch, and Modern Label Punch. I punched out of the purple cardstock with the Modern Label Punch, and then punched the Word Window Punch out of the white cardstock!

I used the Stampin' Up!  5 petal punch and punched out the Purple, white, and blue cardstock!

I tied a long piece of ribbon about 15 inches into a knot, for ribbon instructions, please comment below this tutorial if you'd like to see a ribbon tutorial video.

I adhered the white cardstock and added square dimensionals to the blue cardstock and place it close to the middle.

Lots happened here. I stamped the white punched out cardstock with Stampin' Up! Teeny tiny wishes stamp set in a brown ink and put dimensionals on the back of it. I adhered the purple modern label onto the blue and then put the word window punch on top. Now I put one square dimensional on the purple and blue flower. And I put TWO square dimensionals on the white flower.

 I placed the flowers at an appropraite distance! Enjoy your card! ; )

Card Design Book

Hey everyone! I just decided to make a new Design Book for my card and scrapbook designs! On the bottom are step by step procedures! Enjoy! : )

These are the supplies I used minus the Martha Stewart Scoring Board, and adhesive. I have here a chip board postcard, 4 1/2 x 6 1/2 light blue, white, and black cardstock from Hobby Lobby. Then I used some Chipboard black letters, Stampin! Up corner rounder, Cuttlebug, and Swiss Dot Embossing Folder, Hole Punch, not shown in this picture is the binder clips measured 1", and black organza white dotted ribbon! : )

Now, the chipboard postcard measures, 4x6 so trim the sides of the light blue cardstock by 1/2 an inch. Then take the Stampin! Up corner rounder and round each corner of the blue paper. Adhere this to the chipboard.

Next trim the black 4 1/2 x 6 1/2 cardstock to 3 3/4 x 5 3/4 inches. And use your corner round to round the edges. Also cut the white  4 1/2 x 6 1/2 cardstock to 3 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches.

Place the white cardstock inside the Cuttlebug Swiss Dot Embossing Folder and run it through the Cuttlebug.

Adhere the black cardstock to the blue side of the chipboard. Then Tape the ribbon in the middle front and back. and leave a long tail at the end. The ribbon should be about 8-10" long. Adhere the white embossed cardstock on top of the ribbon.

WATCH OUT! Your going to want to make two of them for the front and back : ) Were making a book! Don't forget it! ; )

Then hole punch the two sides of the covers.

Arrange the black chipboard letters into the phrase of your choice : )! I just thought this was pretty appropriate for a Design book.

I used regular printer paper for the filler paper and cut it down to size, and I then hole punched them to fit the book. I used the binder clips to hold it together. If you can see at the side of the book I used the extra ribbon to tie the book so it doesn't fly open in my purse! Please enjoy, comment, and contact me if you have any questions! Thanks have a great day! : D
