Mid Month Tutorial by Katie

Today I'm sharing the tutorial for the wreath I made for More Than One Score with Scor-Pal challenge

Products needed:
Wire Wreath form - Mine was from the Dollar Tree
Wired ribbon of choice
Paper Pad - I used Farmstead Harvest by DCWV
Any other embellishments you would like - I used dried Wheat, silk leaves, a cotton stem, pinecone, vintage buttons for "flower" centers.
Sign - Target Bullseyes Playground
Border Punch for edges of flowers
Scor-Pal Eighths board
Scor-Tape
Hot Glue gun and glue sticks
Paper Trimmer


Amazon Affilate links may earn me a small commission but do not increase the price for you, they simply allow me to continue to bring crafts to you

You start by wrapping the ribbon around the wire wreath form, hook one end under a row at the back and hot glue the pieces together to stop them slipping off. Then wrap the ribbon around the wreath form, overlapping slightly on each "wrap" to form a base for your decorations.

It will look like this when complete.

Using your border punch, punch allong the edge of a 12" piece of patterned paper.

Using your paper trimmer cut paper to be 1 1/2" wide and 12" in length.

Line the paper up at the top of the Scor-Pal and score the whole length at 1/2" increments.

Pleat your paper in a "hill and valley" style along the length of the paper.

Attach Scor-Tape to the end to adhere both ends together.

Form into a ring and attach, it will look like this.

Gently press the piece into a circle to form the flower.

Add hot glue to secure the flower together, I like to add a circle of cardstock for extra support.

You make these flowers in different sizes, the wider the paper the larger the flower, for flowers where the strip is more than 2" wide you will need to use additional strips or the paper will tear when you try and flatten it to make the flower. Add any embellishments you like to the center, I chose some vintage buttons

Adhere the paper flowers to the wreath with hot glun, for the floral stems I simply pushed those into the where the ribbon overlapped but you can hot glue them too. Add the sign with hot glue too.

I hope you enjoyed this little different from usual project, I like to combine crafts and so using paper crafts in home decor is a nice change from making a card.

I have a created a very simple "floating Z Fold" card for you today that is as quick as it is effective, this took less than 30 minutes from start to finish.
It is a nice change from a regular fold and can be adapted to different sizes and is fun to decorate with the different panels on it.

Project Recipe:
Scoring Tool - Scor-Pal
Adhesive - Scor-Tape
Patterned Paper - October Afternoon
Accents - Adorn It

For card bases but two pieces of cardstock, one 12" by 5" and one 10" by 4". Score the 12" piece at 3" and 6" and the 10" piece at 5" and 7 1/2". Burnish the score lines as in the photo.

Add patterned paper to the bases as desired

Add Scor-Tape to the back of the top base as shown in the photo

Position the top base on the bottom base so the folds coordinate and lie flat when both folded

Remove cover from Scor-Tape and adhere

For mine I am showing a set I made a couple of years ago. I felt sure I'd shared it before but I scoured my blog and couldn't find it, but even after time this is still one of my very favorites and it is perfect for a Mother's day gift
I didn't photograph all the steps when I made it but it was made using the fabulous tutorial that Wendy Weixler shared at Split Coast Stampers, she also shares the template there so you can make one yourself.

Project Recipe:
Scoring Tool - Scor-Pal
Paper - Chloe by 3 Bugs in a Rug
Border Punch - Daisy by Martha Stewart
Ribbon - Michaels
Butterfly Punches - Martha Stewart
Border Die - My Favorite Things
Banner Die - My Favorite Things
Brads - Target

What is great about using a paper with both sides patterned is that when the paper is folded over the form the visual "lid" it shows the coordinating pattern.

It is hard to show how the box opens in a photo but the tutorial I linked to has a video so you can see it clearly.

For my project I decided to make a simple gift box. But it's simplicity lends it to great decoration and also teaches you how easy it is to make boxes of differing sizes when only faced with 12" by 12" paper/
My box is 4 1/2" high, 6" wide and 3" deep.

Project Recipe:
Paper - K and Co
Border Punch - Martha Stewart
Brass Sentiment - Recollections
Pearl Brads - The Eyelet Outlet
Ribbon - Really Reasonable Ribbon
Lace - Mon Ami Gabbi
Chalk Ink - Prima Chalk Edger in Brick Wall
Scoring Board - Scor-Pal
Adhesive - Scor-Tape

Start with a piece of cardstock 6" by 12" and score at 4 1/2" and 7 1/2" along the 12" side.

For the sides you need 2 pieces of cardstock measuring 5" by 5". Score at 1" and 4" on one side, make a quarter turn and score at 1/2"

Burnish and snip at the intersections as shown in the photo, this makes making a corners easier and much crisper.

Add Scor-Tape as shown in the photo

Add the sides to the matching lent of the larger piece of cardstock as shown

Create the sides as shown using your Scor-Tool to create the crisp corners by pushing it gently into the formed corners.

Attach the other sides of form the box

Decorate with patterned cardstock, chalk edges before adhering if using chalk ink

Cut strips to create the rosettes. I did 1 at 12" by 1 1/2" and 2 at 12" by 1". Use a border punch is you like to create a decorative edge, punch after initially cutting the strip before folding.

Score at 1/4" intervals all along the 12" strip and accordion fold to create the rosettes. Use a hot glue to create for strength.

Decorate the box as desired

There you go, a simple yet elegant little box to add a very special gift for a very special birthday!
