Making a Magical Greeting Card

Making a magical greeting card that sparkles and shines.

What a fun greeting card to make. It glitters and sparkles. The stencil-designed paper was the inspiration for making this card, along with the card base that has a metallic glitter to it. Adding different elements of glitter and sparkle helped to unify the pieces.

You can learn how to make the reversed stencil design at the following post: [reverse stencil]

Materials:

CutCardStock Crystal Stardream
CutCardStock Vellum
Zing silver embossing powder
heat gun
the Works Board
magical stamp
Versamark stamp pad
iZink dye spray
Best Glue Ever

The above image shows how the cardstock and the stenciled image both have similar glitz to them. The stenciled image was sprayed with iZink dye in silver to add sparkle.

Video Tutorial:

I like to add a hint of the outside to the inside of cards. For this one, I added a strip of the stenciled paper along the edge.

Making a Mini Folder

Learn how to make a mini folder from one page.

with ScraPerfect

The basic mini folder is made from one sheet of double-sided scrapbooking paper. Using the Best Glue Ever with the No-Clog Writing Cap holds the seams together by applying a small amount of glue, which is needed. From the basic construction, you can embellish the folder as you desire.

Materials:

double-sided card stock
the Best Glue Ever
ScraPerfect’s No-Clog Writing Cap™
ribbon
stickers
scissors
The Works Board
circle punch

After you have cut the paper to size, there are three lines that need to be scored. A small cut with your scissors and you are ready to glue the folder together.

I chose to use stickers and ribbon from Dollar Tree to embellish my mini folder. The embellishment options are limitless and can really enhance the look of your folder.

Video Tutorial:

Here is a look at the inside of the mini folder.

Paper Bowls

Learn how to recycle a catalog to make paper bowls. #affiliate @ScraPerfect

Paper Bowls are easy to make. You can recycle catalogs, magazines, or newspapers to make them. Rolling the pages into long sticks is very easy to do. Once you have a bunch of rolls made, you can begin to make them into a form. Depending upon how you roll them, you can change to shape from round, to oval, or even as a square.

This post is a part of the ScraPerfect Design Team projects I post on their blog twice a month.

Materials:

catalog pages – or other paper
the Best Glue Ever
ScraPerfect’s No-Clog Writing Cap™
Paint – optional
Spray Varnish – optional

For the bowls I made, I used pages from a catalog and the Best Glue Ever with a no-clog Writing Cap on it. This allowed me to add a little glue at a time which is needed for this project. You really don’t want a lot of glue when you are rolling the pages into sticks.

My favorite sticks have stripes which you can see at the top of the photo. I think it would be fun to make a bowl with just striped sticks. After you create the sticks of paper, begin to roll them together. You can easily add a new paper roll by inserting the ends together. One end of the stick is always smaller than the other end. If you leave them always facing the same direction, the small ends will be together. This process is easier to understand by watching the video tutorial below.

Video Tutorial:

The two different bowls I made are shown above. The first one I painted and that added support to the structure. The second one I left as is but I did coat it with a spray finish which did the same as the paint for sturdiness. Which look do you like better?
