Mid Challenge Tutorial

This fabulous project was from one of team members in our current challenge and we wanted for you to be able to create it yourself so we have the tutorial for you.

That's right!  We are in the middle of July and ready for the mid-month tutorial.  This month's Scor-Pal featured challenge is a "more than one score with a die cut" theme.    I'm hostessing and have made a fun slider box with die cuts on top and bottom.

Here's a picture of the slider box opened up just a bit so that you can see the box base.  The box measures 4" long by 2 3/4" wide by 1" deep.

For this project, you will need:

• Scor-Pal
• Scor-Tape
• One 6 3/4" x 8" piece of card stock
• One 4" x 8" piece of card stock
• Paper snips
• Top Note die cut
• Additional dies for embellishing
• Additional card stock for embellishing
• Rhinestones for embellishing
• Stamps
• Ink

Place the 6 3/4" by 8" piece of card stock in the Scor-Pal with the 6 3/4" side along the fence.  Score at 1", 2", 4 3/4" and 5 3/4".

Turn card stock 90 degrees so that the 8" side is against the fence. Score at 1", 2", 6" and 7".

Trim away the three outer squares in each corner, as shown.

With paper snips, cut tabs on the 8" side of the card stock.  The picture below shows the tabs.

Burnish all of the score lines.

Adhere Scor-Tape to the outside of the box base.  Also, adhere Scor-Tape to the tabs as shown.

Remove adhesive backing and fold down the 6 3/4" sides.

Remove the adhesive backing and fold in the tabs on both sides

Remove the adhesive backing on the tabs and fold down the last two sides. Here is your box base.

Place the 4" x 8" piece of card stock in the Scor-Pal with the 8" side along the fence.  Score at 1", 3 3/4", 4 3/4" and 7 1/2".  

Burnish all of the scores.

Line the 1/2" tab on the back with Scor-Tape.

Wrap the 4" x 8" scored card stock around the box base.  This now becomes the cover that the base slides into.  

Use your die cuts to embellish your newly constructed slider box.

Happy Scoring!

Scor-Pal More than One Score Challenge #39 Die Cuts

Welcome to the 39th Monthly Challenge here at Scor-Pal!
This time we want to see your projects featuring "Die Cuts!"
We love showing our projects to you and now it's your chance to show your creations to us!
Each month we will have a different theme and you will have a month to create and enter your projects. As well as the theme you will need to make "More Than One Score" and tell us where you used the Scor-Pal on your project. So a single fold card won't count but an Easel, Gatefold, Stair Step, etc will :) Also we love to see your "Anything But a Card" projects, just as long as you make "More Than One Score"
While we are on the subject on Die Cuts, have you checked out Scor-Pals line of dies called Scor-Dies?
These are designed for use in Pocket Card projects but can so easily be used in so many paper crafting projects, in fact they would have been perfect for any of the ones featured below.!
Be sure to check them out before entering our More Than One Score at Scor-Pal challenge and good luck, you could be our winner!
We have a nice set of samples from the Design Team, just click on their names to go to their blogs for more details on their creations.
