Day Two with Guest Designer Marge Robertson

Good morning.  Welcome to Day Two with Guest Designer Marge Robertson.  Today Marge has a really cute birthday card.  For more projects by Marge, visit her blog here.

Here's Marge: 

Thanks for coming by on my second day Guest Designing @ JustRite Papercraft.  I have a fun little birthday card today, which could easily be adapted for a boy or girl depending on color choices and whether you choose to stamp a focal image or use designer paper as I did. Cutting a window in my card added so much more depth, so I chose that option today! As a bonus, this card perfectly fits the current JustRite Friday Challenge #095, so I'll be adding it there.

 

My recipe:

 Step 1: I decided to make this a window card, but if you choose not to, simply center your image on card front, using a centering ruler. Center top to bottom and side to side, place your die (A2 Matting Basics A #2 die -- #1 being smallest) in the center of your card front & die cut;

Step 2: Die cut focal image from DP (A2 Matting Basics A #3); set aside, as we'll adhere it in Step 6;

 Step 3: Die cut 2 largest A2 Locking Loops rectangles in chosen colors; attach smallest to open area using foam tape and largest using 1/8" Scor-Tape;

 Step 4: Die cut banner/bunting and four button shapes from CS using Spellbinders Buntings and Buttons die, then stamp with Buntings and Banners.  Thread buttons with desired fiber, cord, etc. I used crochet thread colored with my ink pad.  Layer banner as shown and add buttons at each end;

 Step 5: Finally, die cut two Spellbinders Ribbon Banners, stamp with desired sentiments and attach sentiment banner @ center bottom with foam tape and buttons.

 Step 6: Adhere your main image to inside, attaching second sentiment banner above focal image.

 

My Ingredients: 

JustRite Stamps: Bunting & Banners

Spellbinders' Compatible Dies: Buntings & Button Dies; Ribbon Banners; A2 Locking Loops; A2 Matting Basics A; A2 Matting Basics B

Papers: Vintage Cream Papertrey Ink CS, October Afternoon's Cakewalk 8x8 Paper Pack; Echo Park's Everyday Eclectic

Inks: VersaColor Old Rose; ColorBox Sunflower

Embellishments/Tools: Grand Calibur; Embroidery Floss; Tim Holtz Centering Ruler; X-Press It Foam Mounting Tape; Scor-Tape 

Hope you’ll stop by tomorrow for my final day as I’ve created a masculine and a feminine card using the same stamp sets/dies – see you then!

JustRite Friday Challenge #092 - Make It Pop!

We are please to have 3L, the makers of Scrapbook Adhesives products, sponsoring our challenge with some AMAZING prize packages shown below! Their 3D Foam Squares are my favorite dimensional foam adhesives and that is what inspired today's challenge  - "Make It Pop!" I want to see the creative ways you use dimensional foam adhesives in your project AND I'd like you to make it a birthday card (because today is MY birthday - WOOHOO!)

After making all the projects this week for the March Releases, my craft room is a complete MESS! I can barely see my table right now but I DID notice a few items laying there that did not make the cut yet so I was excited to put them all together.

I started by stamping the GORGEOUS flower image from Floral Vintage Labels Two 3 times onto white cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black and coloring a rich red with COPICs and cutting one layer on each by hand for a total of 3 layers. Next, I added  Black 3D Foam Squares to each layer and a large yellow rhinestone for the center:

I also added them to my Large Fancy Sentiment AND the lattice part of my card so I could easily tuck the ribbon behind. You can check out my blog for more details HERE.

Margie Higuchi is joining us this week with a wonderful shaped and layered card featuring Good Friends Labels Twenty-Nine Stamp Set, Enjoy The Day Vintage Labels Four Stamp Set, JustRite Vintage Labels Four Die & Spellbinders Labels Twenty-Nine Die.

Day Three with Guest Designer Valerie Stangle

A special thanks to Valerie Stangle for guest designing this week.  Her projects have been amazing!  Be sure to check out Valerie's blog for more inspiration.

Here's Valerie:

Using Anchors Away by JustRite I created a nautical themed accordion book for your favorite dad (grandpa, uncle, brother).

The base of the book is 4” x 12” and scored at 4” and 8.”

Each panel is decorated with a piece of 4” x 4” patterned paper before adding the die cut and stamped images.

For the front of the accordion, I used the map stamp from Anchors Away  and coordinated die from Vintage Label and Banner Dies.  I die cut the label in teal and added accent coloring on the rope portion of the image with a tan colored pencil.  The anchor was stamped on a die cut sand circle with teal ink and distressed with sand ink and adhered to a burgundy die cut circle with dimensional foam.  Embellish with a piece of knotted cording, a tiny paper clip and a dad tag and adhere to map die cut layer. Adhere finished focal image to center of front panel with dimensional foam.

Using the map stamp and coordinated die with an inspirational sentiment from Anchors Away, I created the first inside panel in the same manner as the front panel.  The sentiment is stamped in teal ink onto a sand die cut circle and adhered to a burgundy die cut circle.  Adhere to teal stamped die cut with dimensional foam. A brad accented, stamped helm is adhered to the rope die cut layer with dimensional foam. Adhere finished focal image to left inside panel with dimensional foam.

The center of the accordion book was created using the rope frame and ship image from Anchors Away.  I die cut the largest label from Nested Medallion Labels Dies in teal cardstock and added accent coloring with a tan colored pencil.  The ship is stamped in teal ink onto a sand die cut circle, adhered to a burgundy die cut circle and embellished with a rope knot and clip.  Adhere completed ship to teal medallion die cut with dimensional foam.  Adhere finished focal image to center inside panel with dimensional foam.

The final page of the accordion book was created using the map stamp and coordinate die once more.   Accented with a birthday banner stamp from Anchors Away and coordinated die from Vintage Label and Banner Dies and anchored with love sentiment, it will be sure to bring a smile to your nautical guy’s face!

Day Two with Guest Designer Valerie Stangle

 Welcome back for another day of great projects by guest designer Valerie Stangle.  Valerie enjoys creating masculine cards/projects.  Today she has a great mini album using JustRite Premium Labels and Vintage Label & Banner dies.

Here's Valerie: 

For today’s project I used JustRite Premium Labels to create an album for a premium dad for a birthday, Father’s Day or special event. 

First, to form the album, cut patterned paper to size (4” x 12”, score at 6”) and corner round outside corners. Sand edges with a sanding block. Create a binding edge with sand cardstock (4” x 2-1/2”, score on the shorter side at 1-1/4”). Ink edges with sand ink and add a bit of piercing before adhering to the patterned paper cover. 

Using Vintage Label & Banner Dies, die cut a large Vintage Label in dark grey cardstock and set aside. 

 For the stamped, layered focal point, start with a small die cut Vintage Label in sand cardstock and stamp the “Authentique Friend” label stamp in rhubarb ink.  Add a bit of edge distressing with sand ink.  Adhere to the dark grey die cut label with dimensional foam. 

Because I wanted it to be an album for a special dad, I needed to alter the original sentiment.  I did this by stamping the “Guaranteed, Top Quality, Premium Dad” image with grey ink onto a die cut sand circle, ink edges with sand ink.  Mat on a grey petite scalloped die cut and adhere to the label with dimensional foam.  Adhere completed, stamped label to cover of album with dimensional foam.

For the inside pages, cut sand cardstock to 3-15/16^” x 11”, three total, and score at 5-1/2”. Corner round all corners. Add a 1” decorative strip of patterned paper to each page, front and back.  Attach a few die cut page tabs.  Bind pages into album with Baker’s Twine.  Add your favorite photos or journaling and present to your Premium dad! 

Tune in tomorrow for another fun project using JustRite stamps and dies!
