Day 5 - 12 Days of Christmas - 3 Cards In a Kraft Gift Box

Welcome to World Card Making Group, 12 Days of Christmas.
The Creative Team have been creating AMAZING Christmas Projects
to inspire you this Christmas which is just around the corner.

I am Sharon Dalton an Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator
in Gogango, Central Queensland 4702.
My Studio Shabaz is a bit of disarray from all the creating I have been doing.
Today I am up with Day 5 of 12 Days of Christmas projects.
I have created 3 Cards in a Kraft Gift Box with Tag for family or friends.

CARD 3 – SlidingEasel Card (INSPIRED BY JULIE DAVISON)

DISCLAIMER - FOLLOW ALONG WITH JULIE’S VIDEO
YOU WON’T MAKE THE MISTAKES I MADE.

 

1.      Tent Fold Card Base – Basic White Thick Cardstock  
11” x 4 1/4” scored at 5 ½”
OR 28cm x 10.8cm
Open card up laying flat on your Trimmer,
Cut two lines 1” from each long side from
1” down to 4 ½”.  Cut between the lines at 4 ½”.

2.       Score between the lines at 1” and 2 ¾” from the top,
(which I said 1 ¾” from the cut line in video).
 (I forgot to do 1” score line on the video)
SORRY I did it later a couple of step later.

3.       Add two strips of Tear n Tape to the right side and the left side of the our base card,  
DO NOT PULL OF TAPE YET!

4.      Basic White Cardstock – Insert 3 ¼” x 4” OR 8.2cm x 10.2cm
Stamp the Baubles in Polished Pink Ink at the top of the slider on the right side
Stamp the sentiment in Misty Moonlight Ink
on the left side almost level with the 1^st Bauble

Punch a small hole in the middle of your insert,
just eyeball where the centre is on the grid paper or measure like I did.

5.       Bring our Tent Fold Card Base back in, where we will stamp the
hidden Sentiment under the flap that becomes part of our slider.
Pop up your slider (This is where in the video 28.27 min mark
that I did the second score line from instruction two)
Stamp with Polished Pink the Sentiment,
trying to make sure that you centre it when stamping.

6.      On cut out piece from the middle of 
Tent Fold Card Base to add a hinge.
In the video I said we needed a Basic White scrap 2 ½” x 1”
BUT I corrected myself and cut the piece down to 2” x 1”
folding in half to form our hinge.
Stick the folded flap close to the inside edge of the slider
with Multipurpose glue. (see video at 31.08 min mark)

7.       Place our Basic White Cardstock – Insert back into our card
so that we can stick the slider to the insert.
You will have your 2 strips of Tear n Tape on either side of your card.
Align the insert to be centred inside your card,
then add some Multipurpose glue to the other side of the hinge
and stick that to the centred insert. This creates the slider.

I realised in the video that I made my insert that little bit too long
so I chopped off about ½” from the insert
(see video at 33.06 min mark)
I adjusted the measurements in instruction No 4
to reflect this mistake.
FOLLOW ALONG WITH JULIE’S VIDEO
YOU WON’T MAKE THE MISTAKES I MADE.  LOL!!! 

8.      Blue Trees DSP 4 ¼” x 5 ½” OR 10.8cm x 14cm –
Cut Frame on your trimmer at the 1” mark from 1” to 4 ½”  mark on both sides
then turn to the 1” mark again and trim between the two cut lines top and bottom. 
This creates the outer frame to cover your Basic White Cardstock – Thick.
Attach to the outside with preferred adhesive.
I forgot something else, you need to use the Label Me Fancy Punch to cut a finger pull hole in this layer to pull up the ribbon to reveal the slider.
See my first card,Turn the punch upside down to centre it
and cut out the little piece of shape with Label Me Fancy Punch.
Pull cover off your Tear N Tape and stick card together.

9.    Basic White Cardstock – Scrap to Stamp Tree in Misty Moonlight Ink
then Die cut Tree with Christmas Tree Dies
through the Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.
Attach Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back of the Tree on the middle bottom half.

Basic White Cardstock – Scrap to Stamp two(2) Small Tree in
Polished Pink Ink then Die cut Tree with Christmas Tree Dies
through the Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.
(Video stops at 40.03 min mark, see Video 2 of 2 to continue this card)

10.    Using Multipurpose glue stick your two(2)
Polished Pink trees to the inside of the slider on either side.
Making sure not to put the glue up too high like I did.
Then we add our Misty Moonlight Tree with dimensionals to the middle of that slider.

11.     Cut 12” OR 31cm Polished Pink Open Weave Ribbon
to tie your bow at the top of your slider with the hole we cut in instructions No 4

12.    2021-2023 In Color Jewels –
Add 3 Polished Pink jewels to the tops of the Die cut Trees
