Get creative with dress my craft scoreboard | Tutorial

Hello everyone,
Hope you are doing great.
This is Meher from Meher Creations back with another post on different ways you can use Dress my craft scoreboard. We are focusing on scoreboard and bone folders this month to show you different possibilities on how you can use them.
Well, In this post I will be sharing some creative ways in creating textures on cards and other projects.

1. Layered card with shaker window

2. Card with a bunch of grapes

How to create:

• Create a card measuring 4*6 inches on a white cardstock.
• Cut a piece of pattern paper measuring 3.5 by 5.5 inches.
• Cut a piece of cardstock again measuring 3 1/4 by 5 1/4 inches. Score the whole cardstock at every 1/8 inch to give a nice texture.
• Pick a yellow pattern paper and cut a window panel on it and adhere foam tape behind. 
• Layer all the pieces together.
• Apply some equal amount of glue at the center of the card and start arranging round pearls randomly to give a natural grapes look.
• Pick some leaf chipzeb pieces and color them in green using Prima chalk edgers.
• Stick them on top of the bunch and tie a bow using twine.
• Add a sentiment and complete your card. 

3. Banner Card

How to create:

• Create a base card measuring 5*4 inches.
• Pick the cover of the charming baby girl paper pad and cut some colorful glossy pieces to create banner. 
• Adhere a piece of twine on the card and allow it to dry. 
• Stick foam tape behind all the tiny banner pieces and adhere it on to the card.
• Add a sentiment or a stamped image to complete the card.

4. Pocket envelope

How to create:

• Create a base card measuring 4*6 inches.
• Score at 1/4 inch on both the sides
• Cut a strip from one part of the card.
• Score at 1.5 inch to fold the envelope.
• Stick the 1/4 inch area on to the other side of the card. That makes a pocket envelope.
• Cut pattern papers and adhere it on the envelope.
• Pick two brads and fix it at the centre of the envelope and tie a twine to make the closure.
• Pick some images from the motif sheet and embellish it using foam tape. Add a sentiment to complete the envelope and fill some tags in it.

List of materials used: 

1. Motif sheet 
2. Charming baby girl paper pad 
3. Scoreboard 
4. Mini trimmer 
5. Corner rounder 
6. White cardstock

Little miracle name plate | How to create

Hello everyone,
Meher this side from Meher Creations with a new project created using the little miracle paper collection from Dress my craft.

I've created a huge name plate that measures 20 inches. Let me take you through the process on how I created.

I painted the base using home decor chalk paint and attached a couple of pattern papers from little miracle collection trimming them in different sizes using tacky glue. I have done some gold stenciling using my favourite stencil from Dress my craft and varnished the whole name plate. I picked some mulberry flowers and attached them on two sides of the name plate. In order to add some extra flavour I ended up sprinkling some Dress my craft sparkling dust on all the flowers.
I picked the alphabets and coated them with white gesso and then colored them in my most favorite color using Prima chalk edgers. I pretty much liked the combination. I proceeded further giving some extra touch up for the letters and varnished them. Finally I added some butterflies, clear droplets and other embellishments to complete the name plate. I had a beautiful pink shabby chic lace which I ended up attaching all over the border of the name plate.

Have a look on how it turned out!!

Magical wand and a pop up card + Tutorial

Hi Creative Peeps

I am in a  festive and merry mood, of course its that time of the year again ! Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas.

This season I had been hooked to making lovely wands and when the Magical Unicorn papers from Dress My Craft arrived, I couldn't help myself but make one !! And instantly thought of using the most gorgeous glitters from DressMyCraft to make the magic come alive.

The unicorn craze has taken me over since long , could I stop at just a wand? ! Of course, not !! So I also have a pop up card to share with you all today. Both the projects have a step by step easy to follow instructions. Just scroll ahead !

This is what we'll be making-

For the wand, here are the measurements that are tried and tested several times :P

I use 2 strips of 3"x12" strips and 2 strips of 1.5"x12" strips in papers of your choice.

Now here I had to admit that the Dress My Craft scoring tool made my life much easier compared to previously owned , especially with this step where I  make score lines that are just .25" wide on the four strips of paper cut above in the first step.

I have folded the paper strips along score lines to make hill and valley fold. And generously sprinkled with sparkling dust and rainbow chunky glitter.

Here I started to arrange the folded strips on a small piece of round chipboard. I have used one strip to cover one half hemisphere of the wand and the second strip to cover lower half hemisphere.

In the next step I have arranged the two smaller strips in the same manner and fitted it to align with the existing folds of large strip.

Magical unicorn die cuts from Dress My Craft , some flowers from stash, feathers, a horn and an ornate chipboard flourish finish off the wand I have a stick covered in washi tape ready to be stuck at the back of wand.

Here is a close up and of course in day light ! Sorry, lighting Seattle is not too good, hence the pictures above ! :P

And voila ! Something magical came up

Are you getting the unicorn vibes already ! Lets hop on to the next project which is a pop up card

For the pop up card , please note down the above measurements and get your pattern paper ready.

Here I have used Floral Oriental cardstock from DressMyCraft for the base.

That's how the box card will come along when stuck at the ends and with patter paper in place.

These are some die cuts and fussy cutting from Magical unicorn paper pad. Note the transparency strips I have cut to stick them to my card.

This is how I have arranged the die cuts with transparencies on the strips of paper placed inside the box card.

And again ! Magic ....!
