"March" quilt Sqaure

Sponge Bob Birthday

I so loved how this card turned out.
I made it for my sweet lil great nephew 2nd Birthday...

I used the big shot scallop square, a few circle punches, and then I had to free hand the nose n mouth but it wasn't to bad. Just makes you want to sing "who lives in a pine apple under the sea-sponge bob square pants" =D

We made this cute lil container as one of our make n takes at our monthly meeting. Recycling a empty (brad/button) container. We can decorate to what ever our hearts desire; and fill with more buttons, paper clips, etc. Would make a cute hostess gift. =)

Sweet lil Valentine*

Recently sewing has became a big hit around my parts (house) lol. So I thought I would start trying it in some of my cards. This one turned out super*

Dimond Fold Card

I made this for my husbands birthday.
I wanted something simple but a bit MANly of course =).
Seen this done on a Christmas card and thought; how cute.
So here is how mine turned out. Super cute right* ;) !

I got the how to from "STAMPERS QUEST"
You will love casing this card over and over again.

Supplies: 4" x 12" cardstock of your choice,
ruler, pencil, bone folder, paper cutter (f0r scoring)

Directions: Working from top edge

1. Following the picture of the template above, make a small, light, pencil mark at center (6") and then score at 2", 4", 8", 10".

2. Score a diagonal line to the right from the 2" score mark down to the center (6") pencil mark.

3. Score a diagonal line to the right from the center (6") pencil mark down to the 10" score mark.

4. Score a diagonal line to the left from the center (6") pencil mark down to the 2" score mark.

5. Score a diagonal line to the left from the 10" score mark down to the center (6") pencil mark.

6. Using your bone folder for crisp lines, follow the template to see where to make the 'valley' and 'mountain' folds. When closed, the card is 4" x 4" and when open, it will stretch out, as you will see.

7. Decorate and embellish as you desire. The large triangle panels could be stamped, embellished, etc. The first one I made had a sentiment in the first triangle and my message in the last one. I only had a stamped image in the center of the card.
