Love Story Squidgies | Pop Out Wedding Card

Hi everyone! Today I'm sharing my Stamping Bella Tutorial Thursday project - a pop out wedding card featuring the Love Story Squidgies. 

In case you missed it, Stamping Bella is having a clearance sale and there are loads of stamps and dies heavily discounted. Everything is selling out fast, so be quick if you want to nab stamps and dies at a fantastic price. Sadly, Dies are being discontinued so when they're gone, they're GONE! 

The coordinating CUT-IT-OUT Dies for Love Story Squidgies are still available and are only $4.99 so if you've been thinking of getting them, now is the time to do so. These Squidgies come in 2 sizes, both included in one stamp set so the dies are also a set of two. 


Supplies:
Card
Patterned papers
Scoring board and bone folder
Adhesive
Foam tape/dots
Embellishments of choice

How to:
For the card base cut one piece of white card measuring 5.5" x 5.5" and score at 2.75".


For the layers, cut a piece of card measuring 2" x 6.5" and another piece measuring 5" x 3.5" 
Score both pieces at 0.5" on both ends.


Cut a piece of paper measuring 5 3/8" x 5 3/8" and fold in half.


Adhere the paper to the card base and bend both sides upwards into a 'v'


Take the 5" x 3.5" piece of card and create a curve by rolling it over your fingers. Fold the 0.5" end sections back at the scorelines.


Cut a thin wedge from each end of the 0.5" sections.


Flatten the card base and adhere the smaller panel in the centre, approx 1/4" up from the bottom.


Cut a piece of paper measuring 3 3/8" x 3 7/8" and adhere to the smaller panel.


For the front strip, curl the 2" x 6.5" over your fingers and fold back the 0.5" end sections.


Adhere a piece of paper measuring 1 7/8" x 5 3/8" to the front


Apply double sided tape to the inside of the 0.5" sections.


Taper the edges of each end.


Adhere one end of the strip behind the card base, lining it up with the bottom


Bring the strip across the front and adhere the other end behind the card base. 
Set the card aside to work on the image.


Stamp the Love Story Squidgies onto white card and colour using your desired medium. 




Cut out using the coordinating CUT-IT-OUT Dies or fussy cut with a precision scissors.


Stamp the sentiment onto white card and cut out using a tag die. 
Cut a selection of die cuts for embellishments.


Apply foam tape to the back of the Squidgies and adhere them to the middle panel, just above the front strip.


Adhere the tag across the front strip, and use the die cut embellishments to decorate as desired.

Little Bits Fairies Twist & Fold Card | Stamping Bella

Hi! Today I'm sharing a tutorial I created for Stamping Bella's Tutorial Thursday. I made a Twist and Fold card featuring the Little Bits Fairies stamps and dies, along with a sentiment from the Unicorn Sentiment set. My daughter kindly demonstrated how to fold this card, in the video below. 

In case you missed it, Stamping Bella is having a clearance sale (to make room for NEW goodies!!) and these stamps are heavily discounted. Everything is selling out fast, so be quick if you want to nab these at a fantastic price. Sadly, Dies are being discontinued to when they're gone, they're GONE!  


Supplies:
White card
Patterned paper
Scoring board and bone folder
Adhesive
Foam tape

How to:
Cut a piece of card measuring 8" x 8". 
Score it at 2" and 6"
Flip the card 90 degrees and score at 2" and 6" 


On all four sides, score at 4" down to the intersecting scoreline (2" mark)


Using a ruler and scoring tool, make diagonal scorelines in the centre square as shown.


Fold all the scorelines carefully. Fold the outer sections back and forth to loosen the card to make it easier to fold up.


Fold as per the video below



Once folded, crease all the scorelines well.


Cut four squares of patterned paper measuring 1 7/8" x 1 7/8" for the card front.


Cut one square of patterned paper measuring 2.75" x 2.75" for the inside centre panel.


Adhere the paper squares to each section of the front.


Stamp each of the fairies onto white card and colour using your desired medium.



Cut the fairies out using the coordinating CUT-IT-OUT Dies, or fussy cut with a precision scissors.


Cut four circles approx 1.75" in diameter.


Adhere the circles to each panel on the card front (I decided to only use two at this point)
Stamp the sentiment and cut out in strip or use a pennant die.


Cut a piece of white card for the inside centre panel, measuring 2.5" x 2.5". Adhere one of the fairies using wet glue or double sided tape.


Adhere the other fairies to the front of the card.
