Our Cards Tags and More kit includes Graphic45 new "Fairy Boutique " patterned papers and solids. You'll get 2 sheets of each design-24 total! Matching Ephemera diecuts pack, Graphic45 Matchbox and Album, 4 black card bases and envelopes, Matching Rub-on transfers, Buttons Galore Crystals-Grape, Little Birdie flower packs-2 total. This is one kit you'll want to add to your collection! So order yours now before they are gone! Here's a photo of this month's Card kit:
From my crafty stash i am using: foam tape and dots, Tim Holtz Distress Ink Gathered Twigs, Graphic45 sticker pack, and 8x8 matching paper pad, tulle- pink green and blue, Stickles Glitter Stardust and Diamond, Prima Marketing trim! The Tres Jolie chipboard tag i used you can find here: https://tresjoliekits.com/collections/chipboard/products/miscellaneous
The black card bases measure 5 & 1/4 x 5 & 1/4 inches.
First off we will create our card stands. You can cut this size stand for all 4 cards. I cut my paper to measure 3 x 4 1/4 inches, using one of the patterned papers/ solid papers. Lay your paper on your score board with the 3 inch side at the top. Score at 1/2 inch, 1 & 1/2 and 2 & 1/2. Fold on the scored lines. See sample photos:
Now using the purple print paper I cut as instructed above:
Glue your stand inside your card with each end glued to the front and backside of your card. Your card will fold flat and fit into the envelope for easy mailing! See photo:
Here's how your card with look after gluing:
Card 1: I cut a piece from Aero blue paper to measure 5x5 inches. Adhere on your card front. See photo:
From the Make a Wish paper, I cut out this Fairy journal card and one of the post cards from the backside. See photos:
With foam dots I adhered my journal card towards the top on the front of my card. I glued the postcard on the backside. This leaves a place to write a personal message. See photo:
I chose a purple bulb flower ephemera piece and cut in half. With foam dots I adhered on the bottom right edge. I added a little Fairy next to flower, I glued two Little Birdie flowers from the kit at the bottom left corner on my journal card. I added a few purple crystals and applied some Stickles Stardust glitter on the fairy wings! Here's acouple photos:
On my envelope, I applied some of the Graphic45 Rub-on transfers on the frontside and back flap.
Card 2: I cut my green leaves paper to same size 5x5 as our previous card. Glue on your card front.
I cut out the Sprinkle Little Magic journal card and made my stand from the green solids paper. See photo:
With foam dots I adhered my journal card on the front towards the top. See photo:
Along the bottom edge I glued a piece of pink lace (my stash) then glued 3 Little Birdie flowers from the kit, on top of my lace spaced evenly apart. I glued a few crystals on my journal card and applied some Stickles Stardust glitter on the fairy wings! On the backside of my card, I glued a matching Fairy post card! On my envelope i added a postcard sticker and rub on butterfly on the envelope flap, using the popsicle stick included in the Rub-on package. See photo:
Here's some finished photos!
Card 3: Cut a piece from the Sparkle and Glow paper to 5x5 and glue onto the front of your card. See photo:
I cut out the Sparkle and Glow journal card with the Mushroom house. From backside of Fairy Boutique paper backside I cut a 4 x 4 & 1/2 inch piece, Pink Roses paper cut to 3 & 1/2 x 4 & 1/2 inches. See photo:
I layered overlapping each paper and with foam dots I adhered my journal card on top. See photos below:
I glued another ephemera fairy at the top right corner and acouple Little Birdie flowers! I added a few Purple crystals and Stickles Glitter Diamond on the little Fairy wings! I glued my postcard on the backside of my card. On the envelope front bottom edge I added a sticker. Here's some photos!
Backside of my Card:
Card #4: Taking a piece of the Pink solid 5x5 adhere to the card front. From the Newsworthy paper, cut a 4 & 3/4 x 4 & 3/4 inch piece and using foam dots adhere on the top of your pink layer. See photo:
Then glue a journal card from the Make a Wish paper using foam tape. This creates nice dimension. Part of your journal card will hang over the top. See photo:
Take out the ephemera shoes, and other leftover purple bulb flower. I cut this piece into 2 pieces. See photo:
Add the shoes ephemera piece onto the lower left corner on your card. Glue one flower behind the shoes and the other on the right side. I applied some Stickles Stardust glitter on the fairy wings and dress and purple bulbs on each flower.
This card would require a larger envelope or you could add it inside a gift.
To finish my card I added some Purple crystals and glued 3 Little Birdie flowers on the top corners on my card. On the backside I glued another journal card. Here's some photos!
Now we can create our Chipboard Tag. You can find a variety of different size Tres Jolie Chipboard Tags here: https://tresjoliekits.com/collections/chipboard/products/miscellaneous
For my project I chose this long chipboard tag:
I traced around my tag onto the Spring Green paper. And glued the leaves side down onto my tag. Be sure to punch your hole at the top before gluing. I trimmed away any excess paper using my x-acto knife from my stash. On the backside i glued the green solid paper. See photos:
Set your Tag aside for now. I chose one of the newest Tres Jolie Chipboard pieces (Trellis) you can see them here https://tresjoliekits.com/collections/chipboard/products/nature
Taking a paintbrush and Folkart Baby Pink Acrylic paint (my stash) i carefully applied my acrylic paint to the front side of my chipboard trellis piece. Let dry.
While your chipboard dries, I fussycut out some images from scrap paper and gathered some ephemera pieces to embellish my tag. See photo:
Take your chipboard trellis piece and glue to the front of your tag. See photo:
Next I arranged my embellishments. I used foam dots to adhere my fussycut matching mushroom house, fairy, and butterfly. I glued the ephemera sentiment at the top of my chipboard trellis. I adhered the butterfly ephemera at the top, 2 fairy ephemera on each side of my chipboard trellis. The fairy towards the bottom edge to make her appear as if she's looking towards the mushroom house.
I took some trim and glued along the bottom edge on my chipboard tag. I also took 3 pieces of tulle- pink, blue and green. I thread them through the hole on my tag and tied into a knot. Then added acouple Little Birdie flowers over the knot. To finish I applied some Stickles Diamond glitter on the fairy wings and added some of the purple crystals from the kit. Here's some closeup photos!
Now we have completed our project for today. I hope you found it inspiring and will create your own designs from this beautiful kit.
