I decided to use both The Secret Garden and A Place in Time papers to create a cute exploding box with a surprise inside!

Project Recipe:
Scoring Tool - Scor-Pal
Adhesive - Scor-Tape
Papers - The Secret Garden and Place in Time both by Graphic 45
Border Punch - Martha Stewart Garden Lattice
Flower Die - My Favorite Things
Flower - Recollections
Lace - Hobby Lobby
Ribbon - Really Reasonable Ribbon

Start with a 12" square of cardstock, score at 4" and 8" and rotate and repeat.
Cut away the corners as in the photo.

For the lid use a piece of patterned paper 7 1/8" square, score at 1 1/2" on all sides. Snip as in the photo to form the flaps for the corners and add Scor-Tape to adhere.

Use your score-tool on the inside edges to make crisp corners on the lid.

Decorate as desired. I use cotton lace and ribbon on the edge and a flower centerpiece on the top of the lid.

I used accents from the paper pad on the inside.

From the Place in Time pad I used the calendar sheet to create a mini calendar as a surprise.

I hope I have inspired you to get creating with Scor-Pal and Graphic 45 and I hope you have enjoyed this week of projects.

Scor-Pal and Graphic 45 Week with Jennie Harper

There have been projects at Scor-Pal and at the Graphic 45 blog and we another wonderful one today!

Hi Scor-Pal fans!  It's Jennie and I wanted to share a project I created for our Graphic 45 ~ Scor-Pal Blog Week. Using a Scor-Pal and come beautiful Graphic 45 patterned paper, I created an easy desk calendar.

Supplies:

Patterned Paper: Graphic 45 French Country
Cardstock: Gina K. Designs
Stamps: Rejoice from The Craft's Meow
Pearls: Want2Scrap
Stickers: SRM Stickers

 Tool: Scor-Pal scoring board 

Adhesive: Scor-Tape

Scissors

Score a 4" x 12" piece of card stock at 4" and 8".

Fold each end in towards the center of the card. It should easily stand on one end with the center section at the "back" of the card, and the other end flap folded down to make the front of the card. To help it stand up easily, embellish the bottom flap. This will keep it from collapsing while on display.

This is very easy to do and I am thinking of making some of of these for Christmas gifts this year.

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful day! 

Blessings,

Hi there! Tya here with a fun project that shows off how amazing a pairing up of Graphic 45 and my handy Scor-pal can be! I loved the beautiful, rich papers that we were given to work with, so thanks Graphic 45! I was inspired by this project from songofmyheartstampers, but I used some fortune cookies instead of the coffee cups to go along with the theme of the papers. This would be a great gift to show that special friend, spouse or teacher just how "fortunate" you are to have them in your life :)
Here's my project:

Fortune Cookie Box

Supplies:

Scor-pal

Scor-tape

Birdsong papers from Graphic 45 (tag and 8 1/4x 8 1/4 inches)

Cardstock (2) 2x 5 1/4 inches

ribbon

cellophane

buttons

black ink

fortune cookies

Step 1- take a 8 1/4 x 8 1/4 square of pattern paper. Score on one side at 2 and 6 1/4.

 Step 2- Rotate paper and score again at 2 and 6 1/4.

 Step 3- Snip the edges as shown.

 Step 4 - Take the 2 x 5 1/4 inch cardstock and score each piece at 1/2 inch and 4 3/4 inches

Step 5- Make a mark at the 2 5/8 inch mark. 

 Find a groove and score a line about half way down.

 Trim the 2 score lines you just made about half way down.

 Fold on the scored lines and line up the half way snipped up lines and fit them together as shown.

 Step 6- Add adhesive to the sides of the box.

Adhere sides together to form the box.

 Step 7- Add adhesive to the flaps on the box as shown.

 Glue this divided section to the inside of the box as shown.

 Step 8 - Add fortune cookies.

 Step 9 - Make the tag by using a cut out from the pattern papers. Add cellophane to the outside of the box. Punch a hole and add the ribbon to the tag. tie the tag to the cellophane. Add buttons and ink the edges of the tag with black ink if desired.

Thanks for joining me and thank you to Graphic 45! Happy Scoring!

Scor-Pal and Graphic 45 Week with Toni Storie

Here we are with the fifth project of our very special week of projects you featuring the fabulous Scor-Pal products and the gorgeous papers of Graphic 45!

We will have projects here and over at the Graphic 45 blog



For today's entry I want you to comment on this post and also make sure you go the Graphic 45 blog and comment there saying that you were sent from here!

Hi, Toni here! It's my turn to share my Scor-Pal and Graphic 45 project. We are having a week long showing of beautiful paper crafts by both the Scor-Pal design team and the Graphic 45 design team.  I received some amazing papers and have barely scratched the surface of all that can be done with Graphic 45 products.  When I saw the Place in Time papers, I knew what I had to make!

For this project, you will need:

• Scor-Pal
• Scor-Tape
• 4 3/4" x 10" piece of card stock
• 4 3/4" x 6" piece of card stock
• 3 3/16" x 4 3/16" piece of card stock
• 4 1/2" x 4 3/4" piece of Graphic 45 designer paper
• Twelve 3" x 4"  pieces of Graphic 45 designer paper
• Additional Graphic 45 designer paper
• Scallop border punch
• Ribbon

Place the 4 3/4" by 10" piece of card stock in your Scor-Pal with the 10" side along the top fence.  Score at 5" and 9 1/2". 

Turn the card stock over and score at 7 1/4".

Crease the folds with the 5" score resulting in a mountain fold, the 7 1/4" score resulting in a valley fold and the 9 1/2" score resulting in another mountain fold.

Place the 4 3/4" by 6" piece of card stock in your Scor-Pal with the 6" side along the top fence.  Score at 5". 

Crease the fold.

Line the glue tabs with Scor-Tape.  On the 10" piece, line the 1/2" tab and on the 6" piece, line the 1" tab.

Remove the backing from your Scor-Tape and adhere together, as shown, to create your calendar stand.

Carefully trim out small monthly calendars from the Calendar Foundation designer paper in the Graphic 45 Place in Time pad.

Starting with December on the bottom, line the top of the back of November with Scor-Tape.

Remove the backing of the Scor-Tape and remove some of the stickiness by placing the adhesive against some fabric and removing.  (I use what I am wearing, either a cotton top or some denim).  Carefully place the November calendar on top of the December calendar.

Repeat with the remaining months until you have a stack with January on top.  (I moved pretty slowly through this part so that I didn't get my months out of order.)

Embellish your calendar as desired.  I used the August Cut-Aparts sheet from the Graphic 45 Place in Time line.  I trimmed out the striped background to 4/12" by 4 3/4" and mounted it on my stand up calendar.  Then I trimmed out the sunflower border and created a scalloped edge for the top and bottom borders.  I finished my calendar with brown organza bow.



Here's another look at the finished product.  Thanks for joining me today!

Scor-Pal and Graphic 45 Week with Diane Zechman

Here we are with the fourth project of our very special week of projects you featuring the fabulous Scor-Pal products and the gorgeous papers of Graphic 45!

Hello! This week the Scor-Pal DT is teaming up with the Graphic 45 team and I have a fun pop up card to share today. As far as I know, this card was originally done in metric here and then re-done as a 6x6 card here. Gini also made a beautiful card with slightly different measurements here. Since I mostly make my cards A2 size, I changed the measurements once again to suit my needs
 (template below). Here's the front of my card with the beautiful Graphic 45 Secret Garden papers. I stamped a sentiment onto the piece with the framed birds and cut it out for the main image. When the card is opened, the inside layer has panels that pop up. Here's a close up of the section that looks like a book...
The girl and birds were also cut from the G45 papers. Then I stamped a sentiment and added ribbons with Scor-Tape to the sides. Here is a template I've drawn with measurements to make this card in the A2 size. You will start with an A2 size card base (5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4 and folded in half) and set it aside. This template is for the inside layer. Click on the template for a larger pic.
 Start with a 5 x 8 piece of heavy patterned paper or cardstock. Following the diagram, cut two horizontal slits as shown by the black lines. Measure 1" in from both sides of each corner and make a mark. Then make a 6" cut from the 1" mark to the 7" mark. Next you will follow the diagram and use your Scor-Pal to score where indicated by the red dotted lines. The center 4" line is scored all the way through. The top and bottom are scored at 2 1/2" and 5 1/2". The middle is scored at 1", 1 1/2", 6 1/2", and 7". Fold on the scored lines to create the pop ups. The top and bottom sections are Valley/Mountain/Valley folded. The middle section is Valley/Mountain/Valley/Mountain/Valley. Here's a picture again.

Now attach this layer to the inside of your A2 card base. Be sure to only apply adhesive where indicated in blue on the diagram! Otherwise, your pop ups won't pop. ;) Scor-Tape works great!
