My final post from our team retreat.
After we spent the day making up the shoebox swaps, we paused for a pizza dinner and a fun game of BUNCO! This is always so much fun!! We play 6 rounds, then have a make & take project before doing the second round of 6.
This is the make & take project that we made
Make & Take Instructions:
Base: Fresh Freesia: 5-1/2” x 8-1/2”
Score at 4-1/4”
Inside piece: Fresh Freesia: 8” x 5”
Score at 2”, 4” 6” on the long side
Die cut the large intricate die from the center
Designer Paper: FLORALS IN BLOOM
2 for the inside @ 2-1/4” x 5-1/4”
3 for the front @ 1-1/4” x 4”
Using the FOREVER FLORALS DIES:
Die cut 1 of the larger labels die with Granny Apple Green
Die cut 5 of the smaller die with Basic White
Also from FOREVER FLORALS DIES:
Die cut a floral group from Fresh Freesia Card stock
Die cut one leaf from Granny Apple Green
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Starting with the intricate piece, poke out all of the little pieces
- Fold this piece into a W shape, use your bone folder to get the crease real good
- On the back side add a small strip of Tear ’n Tape across the center fold, both top and bottom - peel off the backing
- Attach a double layer of LINEN THREAD to the Tear ’n Tape, then add another layer of Tear ’n Tape over top to secure it. DO NOT PEEL OFF THE BACKING!
- Stamp the “congratulations” onto one of the white labels
- Sandwich that label with a blank white label over the Tear ’n Tape
- Now you can add this inside piece to the inside of your card base by folding it into the W shape and laying it inside. You don't want the sentiment piece to hang over the right side of your card when shut. It is approximately 1" from each side.
- On another white label stamp the floral with Fresh Freesia and the inside of the flowers with Peach Pie
- On another white label stamp the “forever & always” using Granny Apple Green Ink.
- Adhere all of your Designer Paper pieces - 2 on the inside, 3 on the front.
- Add the white labels as shown
- Stack the “forever & always” onto the Granny Apple Green label and pop this up with Stampin’ Dimensionals to the front of your card
- With tiny dabs of liquid glue add the leaf and the flowers to the front, then add 3 Rhinestone Basic Jewels
