Wishing You the Brightest Birthday

                                     This Bundle caught my eye immediately but I have struggled with the dies.  When I finally saw this idea I had to case it.  I will have to play with it a bit more to feel more comfortable with it.  I do though love the way this turned out.  

         WISHING YOU THE BRIGHTEST BIRTHDAY

Cased Mikaela Titheridge




HOW TO MAKE & ASSEMBLE:

  1. Run the Moody Mauve piece of cardstock through the die cut machine with all the different dies. See picture to make all dies on the cardstock. 
  2. Run the Mossy Meadow piece of cardstock through eh die cut machine with the corresponding dies.
  3. Run the  (4 1/4” x 3 3/4”) piece of Crumb Cake cardstock Through the die machine in the embossing folder. Adhere it to the card  front.
  4. Take the smaller piece of white cardstock (4 1/2” x 3 1/2”) and stamp a couple of the small flowers in Mauve. ( I stamped off first so they wouldn’t be too dark.  (While stamping this, if you want your envelope to coordinate, I stamped the envelope flap.
  5. Adhere this piece to the piece of Sea Foam cardstock (4 3/8” x 3 3/8”).
  6. Adhere the dies creating your “scene”.
  7. Stamp the sentiment on the small scrap of white then run it through the die machine.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN GATEFOLD CARD

 

You can't tell by looking at the photo but the little skeleton inside wobbles when you open the card. He is so cute. I purchased mini wobbles which I had to purchase on Amazon and as with most of my cards, you can switch things up. Use a cat instead of a dog.  Use a cowboy hat, top hat or even a woman's big floral hat.  The bundle is very versatile.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN GATE-FOLD




 HOW TO CREATE & ASSEMBLE: 

  1. Start by adhering your pieces of DSP to the corresponding pieces of black cardstock, leaving the largest piece of black cardstock formal the extras..
  2. Adhere the matted pieces of DSP” to the corresponding sections of your card, making sure that they are on the right side and pay attention to orientation.  You don’t want to adhere something upside down.
  3. On your extra piece of black cardstock you are going to start stamping everything that is white using VersaMark ink. I recommend, die cutting out the piece for the front sentiment first so you know what space you have to work with to do the rest.
  4. Once stamped with versa mark put on the embossing powder; shaking off the excess, then use the heat tool heat to bring up the designs/words. Run the skeleton and the dog (you can do a cat if you would prefer) through the die cut machine with the corresponding dies
  5. Run the gray cardstock and the scraps of Parakeet, daffodil, and silver cardstocks through the die cut machine with corresponding dies.
  6. Create your inside scene using the Mini Wobble for the skeleton so that he wiggles.
  7. Burnish all your folds using the bone folder so that they are nice and tight.
  8. To create the belly band, take your 1” strip of Cajun cardstock and wrap it around your card.  You can cut off excess but not necessary. You will want it to adhere in the center of y our card.
  9. Adhere the Happy Halloween sentiment over the seam of the belly band so that you don’t see it. Slide the belly band up over the card and you’re done!  Oh yeah, add a couple of glow in the dark bats to the sentiment (or inside if you prefer.)
  10. In Memento Black in stamp the skeleton on the front of your envelope.
