Father’s Day Card

Hello stampers and happy June! I have a simple Father’s Day card to share with you. I created this using my Scor-Pal, vellum paper, kraft cardstock and an old image that I colored with copics.

To start I created a plaid background on vellum paper using my Scor-Pal. You need to be careful using vellum because if you score to hard it can tear the paper.

I scored at 1″ intervals..

Then I tuned the paper and scored again at 1″ intervals..

Then I scored at .25″ after each of the 1″ scores..

Once that was done, I mounted the vellum paper onto kraft cardstock.

To finish I colored the stamped image with copics and popped it up on the card base.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Hello everyone and welcome to June – happy summer!  Today’s project works with the monthly Scor-Pal Challenge..

Each month we will have a different theme and you will have a month to create and enter your projects. This month we are going with a Masculine them.  Along with the theme you will need to make “More Than One Score” and tell us where you used the Scor-Pal on your project. So a single fold card won’t count but an Easel, Gatefold, Stair Step, etc will. Also we love to see your “Anything But a Card” projects, just as long as you make “More Than One Score”
We have a ton of inspiration on our Projects on the Scor-Pal website and also on our Pinterest Board to get you eager to enter.

I used my Scor-Pal, Scor-Tape and some dies to make the box.  You can find the Scor-Pal here, and Scor-Tape here.

Since this project has a masculine theme I went with darker colors.  I started with a piece of brown cardstock measuring 10.5″ square.  I scored it all sides at each 1/2 inch.

To make the box I cut at the 3.5 inch mark – see below.  If you’ve done boxes this is pretty standard.

 

Then I taped the sides to make the actual box using Scor-tape.

For the top, the process is the same, only I used a piece of paper measuring 6.5 ” square and scored at each 1/2 inch.  Then I marked with a white pencil where to make my cuts – which were at 1.5″.  Now……I realized after I added all the embellishments on the top of the box that I really did not need to score at each 1/2 inch, so if you want you can just score at 1.5″ all around.

Make your cuts and tape the ends.

To finish it off I added some coordinating paper to the sides of the top and added die cuts to the top.

Scor-Pal More Than One Score Challenge – Masculine/Father’s Day

Hello crafters – happy June!!  I hope this summer is going well for all of you.  It certainly is  little different these days, but we are all hanging in there!

It’s the start of the month, which means a new Scor-Pal challenge with a Masculine/Father’s Day theme

Each month we will have a different theme and you will have a month to create and enter your projects. As well as the theme you will need to make “More Than One Score” and tell us where you used the Scor-Pal on your project. So a single fold card won’t count but an Easel, Gatefold, Stair Step, etc will 🙂 Also we love to see your “Anything But a Card” projects, just as long as you make “More Than One Score”
We have a ton of inspiration on our Projects on the Scor-Pal website and also on our Pinterest Board to get you eager to enter.

I created a Pop Up gift card holder with a masculine flair.   I used a Scor-Pal, Scor-Tape and some old stamps from Power Poppy. The image was colored with copics. The Scor-Pal can be found here and Scor-Tape can be found here.

 

Here is the inside of the card – when you open it up the gift card flips up.

I started with a piece of cardstock measuring 4.25 x 11 and scored it at  4.5, 5.5 and 6.5.

Then fold on the scor lines so you get a valley/mountain/valley fold.

Flip it over and place a narrow strip of scor-tape along the bottom.

Using the edge of a die cut, or a punch,  cut the flap for the gift card as shown.

Here is what it will look like once the cut is made – you can just slip the gift card in the slot.
