Festive Friday #0087 - Summer Olympics
It's time for another Festive Friday Challenge! Every second Friday we post a challenge for you with a specific theme and an Inspo List of 10 items to choose from to create your project. We encourage you to create a project based on the theme and Inspo List and then post it using at least 3 items from the inspiration list.
This week’s challenge #FF0087 Summer Olympics
Your goal is to simply use three or more items from the inspiration list on your project and link up! #festivefridaychallenge At Festive Friday, you do not need to actually celebrate the occasion. I hope you’ll make a card, scrapbook page or 3-D project and join us. You don’t need a blog to enter Festive Friday. Check out this link on how you can play along with this challenge. If you want help entering, please email me at stampinwithmelva@gmail.com and I’d be happy to help you!
For today's challenge I used the Beauty of the Earth Product Suite. I absolutely love this suite! The Designer Series Paper is stunning! I hope you like my gatefold card. I used encouragement, silver and fancy fold for my card this week!
Instructions
- Cut Designer Series Paper 5 1/2" x 12" and score at 2, 4", 6" and 8"
- Measure 2 3/4" on each side and make a small mark
- Cut from the mark on a diagonal to the 4" score line - save this piece
- Repeat on the opposite side cutting from the mark to the 6" score line - save this piece
- Fold on the score lines - with the front flap folded back on itself.
- Adhere the pieces you cut off to the bottom of the card - you can adhere them with the point towards the middle or towards the edge, it's up to you. For my card, I adhere the point towards the edge.
- Use your bone folder to crease on the score lines.
- Cut coordinating cardstock 1" x 11" and wrap around card to form belly band. Don't make it too tight or it will be difficult to remove the belly band.
- Adhere the end together with Stampin' Seal and cut off excess.
- Cut out tree from Crumb Cake cardstock
- Cut out solid leaves from Designer Series Paper
- Cut out detailed leaves from green Designer Series Paper.
- Adhere detailed leaves to solid leaves using Mini Dimensionals.
- Adhere to tree trunk using Dimensionals.
- Wrap silver trim around hand about 3 times. Remove and pinch together. Adhere to the Belly Band using Stampin' Seal
- Adhere tree over the trim using Dimensionals - apply to belly band only.
- Stamp sentiment on a scrap of Basic White cardstock using Cinnamon Cider ink
- Cut out using Paper Snips
- Adhere to Belly Band using Dimensionals
