Scor-Pal and Viva Las VegaStamps! Week with Toni Storie

 We have a fun week of inspiration to share with you today from Scor-Pal and Viva Las VegaStamps! Be sure to leave comments on our blogs this week to be in the running for great prizes.  VLVS will be giving away a couple of pounds of rubber stamps, and we will be giving away a Scor-Pal and a Scor-Envi.  The more comments you leave, the more chances you have to win! 

Hi, Toni here! It's my turn to share a Scor-Pal and Viva Las VegaStamps project. We will have a week long showing of some crafty goodness by both the Scor-Pal design team and the Viva Las Vegas creative team. I received some really fabulous stamp set with so many great images and sentiments.  I chose to show off this great image with a recessed window card.

For this project, you will need:

• Scor-Pal/Scor-Buddy
• Scor-Mat
• Scor-Tape
• Ruler
• Craft Knife
• Stamps
• Inks
• Embellishments
• 4 1/4" x 8 3/4" piece of card stock
• Two 4" x 4" pieces of card stock
• Two 3 1/4" x 3 1/4" pieces of card stock
• Two 3" x 3" pieces of card stock
• 2 7/8" x 2 7/8" piece of card stock

Place the 4 1/4" by 8 3/4" piece of card stock in your Scor-Pal.  The 8 3/4" piece will be against the top fence of the Scor-Pal.  Score at 4 1/4" and 4 1/2" marks.

Place a 3 1/4" by 3 1/4" piece of card stock where you want your recessed window.  Trace around the piece of card stock and remove it.

Place a 3" by 3" piece of card stock inside of the previously traced square.  Trace around the piece of card stock and remove it.

Insert your Scor-Mat in your Scor-Pal and place your card stock on top of it.  With a ruler and a craft knife make a cut from one corner to the opposite corner.  Repeat with the remaining two corners. 

Score on the traced lines on each of the four sides.  The traced lines are 1/8" apart, so the scoring was completed with a Scor-Buddy. 

Turn your card stock over and crease the outside scores away from the center of the square. 

Next, crease the inside scores toward the center of the square.  This creates a negative "X" shape and is the base of the recessed window.

Crease the scores made in the very first step to create the spine of the card.  The two scores make room for the recessed window and allow the card to lie flat.

With card open and recessed window on top, line the inside of the window with Scor-Tape. 

Remove backing from Scor-Tape and place a 3 1/4" by 3 1/4" piece of card stock into the recessed opening.

Stamp the Viva La Vegas Marilyn Monroe image in black and red on a 2 7/8" by 2 1/8" piece of card stock.  Overstamp the whole image with Versamark ink and emboss with clear embossing powder to create a sheen.  Mat the Marilyn image on a piece of 3" by 3" piece of card stock.  Adhere focal image into the recessed window.

Finish inside of card by covering the back of the recessed window with a 4" by 4" piece of card stock.  Cover the inside of the card with another 4" by 4" piece of card stock and stamp a Marilyn Monroe quote from the same Viva Las Vegas Stamps set. 

Finish the outside of the card with a rhinestone frame.

Here is a view from the side to better show the recessed window in which Marilyn is framed.

Thanks for joining me today!

Scor-Pal and Viva Las VegaStamps! Week with Diane Zechman

  We have a fun week of inspiration to share with you today from Scor-Pal and Viva Las VegaStamps! Be sure to leave comments on our blogs this week to be in the running for great prizes.  VLVS will be giving away a couple of pounds of rubber stamps, and we will be giving away a Scor-Pal and a Scor-Envi.  The more comments you leave, the more chances you have to win!

Hello! This week the Scor-Pal DT is teaming up with Viva Las Vegastamps and today I am sharing my project. I had a hard time choosing which plate to work with...they have some funny ones! But I settled on this one with an adorable image of a super hero wanna-be. How cute is he? The words and banner are also on this plate of rubber. They all worked so well together with my Scor-Pal to create a tri-fold card. To make the tri-fold card: start with a 5 1/2 x 12 inch card base and score it at 4" and 8". To make the rays on the front panel: Cut a piece of copy paper to 1 7/8" x 5 1/4". Score and fold this at 3 1/4". Then cut 4 strips of cardstock (1 1/2 x 4 inches each) diagonally from corner to corner. Apply adhesive to the copy paper and adhere the cardstock triangles, aligning the first one with your scored mark. Trim excess. I added some Stickles to the lines. The "rays" were adhered to a light blue panel measuring 3 3/4" x 5 1/4". Then I stamped the words and scored some lines vertically and horizontally on the blue cardstock as shown below.

The little super-hero was popped up on dimensionals.

Another cape and boots were added to the inside, along with an additional sentiment from the same plate and a pop out banner. To create the banner: start with a 3/4" x 6 1/2" cardstock strip. Score it at 1 5/8", 3 1/4", and 4 7/8". (I created this banner to fit the measurements of the banner stamp that I used. Adjust the measurements to fit your needs.) Stamp the image onto each of the 4 sections and valley/mountain/valley fold. Attach the first and last sections to the top of the inside of the card as shown. Stamp additional banner images to complete the card. stamps- Viva Las Vegastamps Plate 918; paper- textured white, SU! Pool Party, Daffodil Delight, and Tangerine; ink- Memento Tuxedo Black, SU!

Scor-Pal and Heartfelt Creations with Steph Ackerman

Good morning, Steph here and I had the privilege of working with some stamps and dies from Heartfelt Creations.

The die I received is Layered Elegant Swirl (HCD 716), and the stamps I used are Flirty Fleurs (HCPC 3439) and Classic Messages (HCPC 3354).

Using my Scor-Pal, this belly band card was not only fun to create, it was also easy.  This card is the result of playing around with the Layered Elegant Swirl dies!

Cut green cardstock 9 1/2" x 9 1/2".
Score at 2 1/2" and 7".

Center the die along at the top of the center panel and tape in place.
Run through a die cut machine and remove the excess cardstock.
This die was just used to start the initial shape of the card.
Place wax paper across the card and tape the detailed die to the center panel, matching up the scalloped edges from the previous die cut.
Run through a die cut machine.

Repeat these steps around for all 4 sections.

Score along the edges of the die cuts.
Fold inward.
Cut a panel of pattern paper 4 1/4" x 4 1/4" and adhere within the scored lines to complete the interior of the card.

Lightly stamp the Floral image in the right corner with brown ink and emboss with clear embossing powder.

Stamp and cut out 3 tiny flowers and mold into shape.

Adhere atop the stamped image.

Add Dew Drops from the Robin's Nest to the center of each flower.

Stamp sentiment in black ink, mat with matching cardstock and adhere to the upper left edge of the card.

To create the belly band, cut coordinating cardstock 2 1/2" x 12".

Score at 3", 3 1/8", 8", and 8 1/8".

Fold on the scored lines.

Stamp the Floral image randomly across this band and emboss with clear embossing powder.

Stamp and cut out 2 tiny flowers and mold into shape.

Adhere atop the stamped image on the center portion of the belly band.

Add Dew Drops from the Robin's Nest to the center of each flower.

Add Scor-tape to the reverse side and adhere the ends together to create the belly band.
