additional items for this card: foam tape, silver pipe cleaner,
hot glue, transparency paper, diamond dust, die cutter, (such as a
Sizzix Big Shot)
Instructions:
1. To create this card, first cut, score and fold white heavyweight cardstick to measure 5 x 5, and set aside.
2.
Next cut the brown pattern paper 4 3/4 x 4 3/4 and the large chevron
paper 5 x 5 and adhere the two together then machine stitch around the
edges.
3. To create the opening, lay the 4 1/2 x 4 1/2 out
die from the “Labels” by Little B set, onto your cutting plates and run
through your die cutter, cutting out the inner image.
4. Cut
frosty words paper on the flip side, 5 x 5 for your winter scene
background, then cut white cardstock to resemble a snow drift, then lay
your stickers down to create a winter scene. Add your blue jewels for a
bit of bling.
5. Then taking the top of the card, (the piece
that has the label cut out), flip over and adhere adhesive around all
the edges, then lay down a piece of 5 x 5 inch transparency paper and
press to adhere.
6. Next, cut strips of foam tape to
completely cover all the edges of the underside, (you don’t want any
“snow” escaping), then using diamond dust, sprinkle about a 1/2
tablespoon onto the transparency.
7. Then finally taking
the back piece, (the piece with the winter scene), lay it down exactly
onto the the top piece, pressing down on all the sides.
8.
To cover the edges, (because I had foam tape exposed on the sides), I
adhered a silver pipe cleaner around the edges of the shaker to conceal,
and it adds a nice finishing touch.
9. Adhere shaker card to the pre-scored and folded white cardstock.
