Scor-Pal's May Flowers "More Than One Score" Challenge Mid-Month Tutorial

Here we are, flying through the month again!  We are halfway through the month and I have the mid-month tutorial on the Pinwheel Fold Card for you.  I have incorporated my flowers into my lovely designer paper and into the image stamped inside with my message. The rest of the team has made some amazing projects so be sure to check out the Scor-Pal blog for pictures and links to their blogs
For this project, you will need:
  • Scor-Pal
  • Scor-Envi
  • Scor-Tape
  • One 6" x 6" piece of double sided designer paper
  • One 3 1/4" x 3 1/4" piece of card stock
  • One 3 1/8" x 3 1/8" piece of card stock
  • paper snips
  • stamps
  • ink
  • ribbon
Place the Scor-Envi into the top right hand corner of the Scor-Pal.  Place the 6" x 6" piece of designer paper with one corner in the 6" groove, one side aligned with the Scor-Envi and the opposite corner lined up with the 6" groove. Score at the 7 3/4" mark.  Rotate 90 degrees and repeat for the remaining sides. Remember to score on the side of the paper that you want on the outside of your card.
Trim out the triangles made my intersecting score lines on each side.
Burnish your score lines.

Turn designer paper to opposite side and align with the top left hand fence of the Scor-Pal. Score from the top of the paper to the top of the trimmed out triangle.  Rotate 90 degrees and repeat on remaining sides.
Burnish your second set of score lines.
Stamp your sentiment on the 3 1/8" x 3 1/8" piece of card stock.  Adhere with Scor-Tape to the 3 1/4" x 3 1/4" piece of card stock and then adhere to the center of the pinwheel fold card.
Fold one flap down and continue in a clockwise fashion until you get to the last flap.  You will likely need to lift up slightly on the three flaps and tuck the fourth flap underneath.
Tie a generous length of ribbon around the center of the pinwheel fold card for embellishment.
Give this tutorial a try or pick another project.  If you are low on ideas or are looking for inspiration, be sure to check out the Projects on the Scor-Pal website or our Pinterest board.

Using It- Patterned Paper for Lisa

Hey there!  It's Thursday and that means that the Ways To Use It challenge is happening on Splitcoaststampers.  My teamie Lisa is today's hostess and her challenge is to use some patterned paper on her card.

I pulled out some colorful, happy papers and set to work on the Viva La Verve sketch for April.  I didn't notice the measurements on the sketch and changed the shape on a couple of elements.  Other than that, I think I was pretty true to the sketch.  

I took a personal day from work today, so I will be getting a few things done around the home front.  I hope your day is going as well as mine!

Thanks for stopping by!

Details - Stamps: Each Day (Verve); Paper: Coconut Swirl (Bazzill), Perfect Plum, Recollections Backyard Table dp; Ink: Perfect Plum, Pool Party; Accessories:TCP Apron border die, MS butterfly punch, Recollections rhinestones, Spellbinders Nestabilities, Scor-tape, stampin' dimensionals, sponge dauber, sanding block, Scor-Buddy.

Scor-Pal's More Than One Score Challenge - May Flowers

Hello Crafty Friends! It's time again for another Scor-Pal More Than One Score challenge. The theme for the month of May is May Flowers.  The hostess for this month is me.  Be sure to check back on my blog at mid month for a tutorial on this month's project.  My project today is a Pinwheel Fold card!
Here's my pinwheel card made of a lovely floral paper all tucked in and tied neatly with a bow.  You really do have to lift a bit on the other flaps to tuck in the fourth flap like the tab on the top of a cereal or cracker box.  Down below, you can see my pinwheel card open with its message inside (and some more flowers).
You will want to make sure that you have a good look at what the rest of the designers have made for your viewing pleasure this month!

It's always a great time to play along with the Scor-Pal More Than One Score challenge and try a new tutorial.  If you are low on ideas or are looking for inspiration, be sure to check out the Projects on the Scor-Pal website or our Pinterest board.
