Angie has used the adorable First Edition It’s A Girl Paper
Pad and the Me to You Tiny Tatty Teddy Girl papercraft collection to make this
sweet card, perfect for a little girl’s birthday.
What You Will Need
First Edition 8” x 8” It’s a Girl Paper Pad
Me to You Tiny Tatty Teddy Stickers, Ribbons, Clear
Sentiment Stamps
Dovecraft Pearl Effects – Brights – Pink
Pencil, Rubber, Ruler, Knife, Pokey Tool, Scoring Tool,
Double Sided Tape
How to Make
1.
Cut two pieces of the First Edition cream floral
textured paper to 14.9cm x 9.9cm. Score the top of the cards 1cm from the top. I
have then stuck the scored sections of the card together to create a card
blank.
2.
Print off the template and cut it out. Place the
template onto the front of the card and use the paper piercer to pierce a small
hole at every corner of the 5 squares and remove the template. Make sure the
card is open flat so you do not pierce through to the back of the card.
Tip: Add some foam behind your card so you can easily pierce
the paper.
3.
With the template and pin pricks as a guide,
draw in the black lines only with a pencil. With a scalpel or blade, cut the
pencil lines. Score the paper where it has been indicated on the template. Use
the rubber to remove the pencil guides.
4.
Separate the sections and apply double sided
tape to the back of the 3 frames and add double sided paper to cover the centre
of each frame.
5.
I have the added the ‘Oh so sweet’ and the Tiny Tatty Teddy Girl stickers to the centre of the largest frame. I have then
decorated the frame with a red glitter flower sticker on the top left of the
frame and cream glitter flower sticker to the bottom right.
6.
In the second frame, I stuck the ‘Sugar and
Spice’ sticker at a slight angle and surrounded it with a flower sticker and a
pink bird sticker.
7.
For the smallest frame, I created a love bird
scene by added a glitter flower and rose sticker to the frame and adding two
birds to the centre. Add a small glitter heart above the birds.
8.
On the
front of the card, I have added a glitter heart and flower sticker. Using the
Tiny Tatty Teddy stamp, stamp the ‘Hello Beautiful’ butterfly sentiment onto
the pink striped paper with the Pink Dovecraft Pearl Effects.
9.
Finally, cut a piece of cream floral ribbon to
14.9cm and add to the top of the card to cover the score lines. With another
piece of ribbon, make a bow and stick on top of the ribbon.
This card
definitely has the wow factor and can be adapted to many different designs. We
