Here is our November Featured Project by 

November Guest Designer Karen Knegten

Scor-Pal Gift Box for 3 Frappuccino bottles

 

How to make the base that holds the bottles:

1. Start with a piece of poster board 10.5” x 15.5”
With 15.5” side on left side of your Scor-Pal, score at 4” and 6.5”.

3. Now rotate your card stock, so that the 10.5” side is on the left.
4.  Score at 4” and 11.5”.

5. Now it’s time to do a little cutting.

Now, decorate to your heart’s content! Have fun!

Thank you, Karen, for sharing that great project!

Now over to today's designers!

First up, Scor-pal Designer Tami Mayberry

The Scor-pal team has an outstanding way of creating 3D projects that I just love! I, myself, am somewhat different in that I typically lean towards the clean and simple projects. This week the ladies have shown you some outstanding ideas for gifts, mini albums and decor. Today, I am going in a slightly different direction. I've decide to create a scrapbook page to show you just a few of the many ways that you can use your Scor-pal for some super simple scrapbook techniques.

 Here is the layout I created.

 

Coredinations card stock, all papers and embellsihements from Bo Bunny. Scor-pal scoring tool, Scor-Tape and Non Stick Craft Mat

First off I used my Scor-pal with some Core'dinations card stock to create a border around my patterned paper. 

I simply scored evenly spaced lines from the back of the page, flipped over and sanded lightly. This is also a great way to line up paper strips or borders keeping them straight and even.


I also used the Scor-pal to create the rosette at the bottom of the page.  Rosettes are super easy to make with the Scor-pal and best of all you can customize them for the size of your project.

Each rosette is created by scoring a strip of paper or card stock at equal distances then simply accordion fold, connect the ends, press down in the center and secure. The height of the rosette is controlled by the distance of the scores. 1/4" scores will make a rosette 1/4" tall, 1/2" scores will create a rosette that is 1/2" tall etc. The diameter of the rosette is controlled by the width of the paper strip. The wider the paper the larger the rosette.

I have found that the rosettes are best held together with hot glue. To do this simply hold down the center, fill with glue and let cool.


I've also found that the Stay Put Craft mat is an ideal for base for making them on. With it's non-stick and heat resistant surface the Stay Put Craft Mat allows me to press the flower center down flat to cool and it will peel right up without sticking.



It also helps create a flat surface ideal for adding embellishments on the top and adhering flat to the project on bottom.



Of course, there are tons of other great uses for the Scor-pal products when scrapbooking but I will keep it short and simple for today and share more in a future post.

Next up: Scor-pal Designer Lisa Andrews

Keepin it simple is the theme of my project! With the holidays quickly approaching I thought I would make something that would be quick and easy to put together for that last minute gift.

I used Bo Bunny’s “Garden Girl” collection, including all the extra little bling and chipboard. The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.

The box on top of another box is two gifts in one, the bottom box is left empty for something special (maybe a picture frame or a pair of earrings?) and the top box is filled with 3” x 3” note cards. 

The little “hi” container next to it is a Post-It holder and box from the Scor-pal site.

 Thanks for visiting with us this week. Don't forget to leave a comment on each post this week. The more you comment the more chances you have to win!

We'll be back Monday to announce the winner and share the November Scor-pal Designer Challenge.

Now over to today's designers!

First up: Scor-pal Designer Diane Zechman

This week the Scor-Pal DT has teamed up with the Bo Bunny DT to bring you lots of paper inspiration! Today it's my turn to share a few things I made with the Scor-Pal and the sweeet Bo Bunny Blitzen collection. Be sure to also check out the matching embellishments...adorable!

Here I created a Gate-fold card and two Mini Christmas Totes.


stamps- Bo Bunny Blitzen; paper- SU! Espresso, Bo Bunny- Double Dot Chiffon Stripe, Blitzen Dot, Blitzen Stripe, Blitzen Sentiment; ink- Memento Tuxedo Black, markers- Bravo Burgundy, Sahara Sand, Cocoa; accessories- Scor-Pal, Scor-Tape, pop dots, Stickles, SU! Clear Tinsel Trim, Crop-A-Dile, jumbo eyelets; Bo Bunny Blitzen accessories- Stickers, Jewels, Layered Chipboard Stickers, Buttons, and Rub-ons.

The front of the Gate-fold card has a Layered Chipboard Sticker wreath. I outlined the striped paper layer with some glitter.




When the left flap is opened, it reveals the panel attached to the right flap. A large green snowflake sticker, some Blitzen jewels, and a few rub-on words were added to the patterned paper.




The card fully opened... the ornament circle is a sticker and the birds are another rub-on.

The Mini Christmas Totes are quite cute in size and very easy to make. The Blitzen ornament was stamped onto patterned paper, cut out, and popped up with dimensionals. It was also adorned with jewels. The bag has a few other Blitzen embellishments...the red snowflake and scalloped border are stickers, and the silver snowflake is a button.



The reindeer on this bag was stamped and popped up also. Select areas were colored and glittered, and a tiny jewel was applied where a collar might be. More scalloped border here and three layered chipboard snowflake stickers.




One last photo... I wanted to share with you how professional the bottoms of the bags look. Be sure to check out the tutorial (linked above) to see how to fold the bottom flaps to achieve this look.

Supplies:
Scoring tool: Scor-Pal
Cardstock, pattern paper, die cuts, brads, buttons: Bo Bunny Garden Girl Collection
Ink: Clearsnap
Die cuts: Spellbinders, Nestabilities; Cricut Expression

I had the privilege of working with Bo Bunny's Garden Girl line in conjuction with my Scor Pal this month.  Since Bo Bunny was very generous with their supplies, I decided to make a party ensemble.

The Party banner was cut at 5" and 5 1/2" with my Cricut Expression and the Sports Mania Cartridge. The smaller piece was inked with Clearsnap's Mix'd Media Leather Inx and adhered on the larger piece.  A small piece of pink cardstock was cut for the top of the banner headers and 2 score lines were made with my Scor-Pal.  Ink was added to the score lines to help them stand out a bit.  The letters were cut using the Plantin Cartridge and attached to a Spellbinders Scalloped Circle.

The candy bag uses a Bo Bunny die cut that was scored in half with my Scor-Pal then it was adhered to the top of the bag.  A second Bo Bunny die cut and the owl were added on top.

The gift bag uses Bo Bunny cardstock and pattern paper. - score lines were added across the bag just above the pearl accents.

The card was cut 5 1/2" x 11" and then folded to create a center opening.  A Bo Bunny die cut was used on the card's front and rub-ons were added.  Inside, I added additional Bo Bunny die cuts.  The edges were then inked.

Thanks for stopping by!

See you tomorrow with our final day with Bo Bunny.

Now over to today's designers!

First Up, Scor-pal Desinger Virginia Nebel:

Hello, I hope you have enjoyed the wonderful creations using the Scor-pal and Bo Bunny products. I’d like to share with you my Accordion Tri-fold Flap album using BoBunny’s delicious and beautiful Sweet Tooth collection.

This mini album is very easy to create and you can fit lots of photos and journaling to capture your favourite memories.

Here are the steps :

I have used plain card stock and the score marks are shown in pencil for visual clarity, double-sided pattern paper works best for this project.

Place a 12 x 11 ½ double-sided pattern paper onto the Scor-pal and score at 4 and 8 inches.

Rotate paper 90 degree clockwise, and score paper at 6 inches. Rotate paper back to original position after this step.






Cut along the top half vertical score lines at 4 and 8 inches. The first and last flaps are folded down and the middle flap is folded back. You will notice the flaps are shorter than the base so that you can place a decorative border along the edge. The border brings attention to the flap as an inter-active element and reminds the reader to flip up the flap when viewing the album.







Now you are ready to decorate your Accordion Tri-Fold Flap album. 

Here is my finished project, I am going to look forward to filling it with memories of a birthday celebration for a very special little girl who just turned 2!

 

 

Have a great day!
Virginia

Core'Dinations cardstock

I used the Cookie Box template from Scor-pal to make my fall themed box. 

For the dimensional flower on top of the box, I stamped the sunflower stamp three times, fussy cut each image, and shaped the petals.

I used my Scor-Pal to emboss a pattern on the Core'dinations cardstock, and then I sanded the lines to reveal the core color. It was really fun to build layers on the card with all of the embellishments that are available in this collection.

 

Thanks for stopping by!

We'll be back tomorrow with more.
