Peony two ways

I issued a colour question on my Facebook page the other day, and it was even, so I decided to do something with both colours! Check out the Facebook Live video here.

The first card was done using the Prized Peony Stamp set. The image was stamped in Versamark on Cherry Cobbler, and embossed with clear embossing powder. The corners were rounded with the Detailed Trio Punch, and adhered onto a 4 1/4 x 5 1/2" piece of Very Vanilla cardstock. The sentiment was stamped in Memento Black. 

The second card was stamped using Smoky Slate, on a piece of 4 x 5 1/4" Very Vanilla cardstock and then heat embossed with clear embossing powder. It was coloured using Calypso Coral and Old Olive watercolour pencils, and blended with the blender pen. The Detailed Trio punch was used for the corners, and the sentiment was stamped with Smoky Slate. It was layered onto a 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 piece of Calypso Coral cardstock. 

Thanks for reading! Happy crafting!

12 Crafts of Christmas day 10- twist and close box

Image
 Today's project is a fun twist (ha!) on a gift box. While it looks challenging, it's really quite simple to put together, and all you need is cardstock, patterned paper, adhesive, a ruler and stylus or scoring tool. Trim 1/2 inch from your cardstock so you're left with an 8 1/2 x 10 1/2 piece. Score on the long edge at 2 1/2, 5, 7 1/2, and 10 inches. Score the short side at 2 1/2 inches, flip, and score the other side at 2 1/2 inches.  Mark one side as shown 1 1/4 inches from each score line, and score from the mark to the bottom corner. Fold and burnish to crease.  Cut the bottom of the box as shown to the bottom score line. Discard the small tab at the bottom.  Cut your patterned paper to 4 3/4 x 2 1/4. Run adhesive along the side and connect the two edges. Apply adhesive on the bottom edges and seal the box. Working from one side, pinch the top closed, and your box is done!  Check out the video here. Check out all of our projects as the 12 days continue here...
