Game boy

Hello everyone.

 I sketched the image of the controller from the internet and made this card.

For the card I used

Tattered lace pin dot circle dies,

Justrite sentiment,

Papermilldirect black and grey card,

Wow embossing powder,

White gel pen.

Here are some sketch of the controller. To make sure both sides matching, I folded the paper in half and cut it around. Then I added the paper template of the controller to black card and draw around and cut it around. You can see below. 

For this card you need two pieces, shown below.

I folded the edge to 0.8 cm on one of the shaped card and added the strong tape. 

I decorated the card by adding some circles and other little shapes to it. For the inside I cut slightly smaller shape in white card and added to black card. Then I put two pieces of the shaped card together.

Thank you card and tutorial for a pop up double box card.

Hello everyone.

Here is a simple thank you card, the image were printed from Moonbeam Meadow cd-rom for a quick card.

For the card

Moonbeam meadow image from cd-rom,

Justrite sentiment,

Marianne butterfly dies,

Anna Marie design dottie card,

Pearls and ink.

Here is a tutorial for double size pop up box card. It can fit C5 envelope.

 

You will need 2 A4 cards. Cut one of the A4 card to meassure 11" by 6". Then score at 2 3/4", 8 1/4". Turn the card and score at 2 3/4" all the way. Cut the lanes at 2 3/4" to the folded lane.

Your card should to look like this image shown below.

Here below I'm showing the edgeable sentiment die wich fits perfectly the centre of the front pop up box card.

For the second A4 card. Cut the card measuring 6 1/2" by 6". Score the 1/2" at the both sides of the card. Then cut the sides to 2 3/4" length and the remaining folded edges will be attached to the other half of the card with the strong tape. Here is the image below showing where to fold and to cut.

 Here are two parts of the pop up box card.

I added the red tape to both sides of the card showing below.

By putting cards together start with one side first.

Then stick the other side.

Here are some strips for the pop up box card they have to measure length 6 1/2" and width 1/2" or 3/4". I'm finding that 3/4" width of the stripe is better for holding the flowers, flourishes and other die cuts. Add the strips to the box card you will need two.

And here is the pop up box which you can decorate the way you like it.

  

Here is the C5 envelope with pop up box card folded

Hope the tutorial and the images it is easy to follow. One of the lady kindly asked me for the tutorials over at Docrafts so I hope it will helps her.

Thank you so much for leaving your comments!

Have a lovely weekend!

Hugs Natalia.
