Love to garden

Hey crafty friends, Sandra here today with a really large card full of blooming flowers, cute fairies and their best gnomies gardening together.

I created that card with multiple die cut and printed digital image layers to achieve a more realistic 3D effect.

It feels like you are already standing in that garden, smell the fresh air and look at the fluttering fairies.

The little gnome starts trimming the lawn while talking to his friends. He is really enjoying that wonderful sunny day.

Hopefully your day is as brightful as on my card!

La - La Land Crafts - Tutorial Thursday - Box Making

Hello lovelys, are you ready for a cool box making tutorial? Today it is my - Sandra´s - turn to show you how I made this little box covered by another box.

You`ll need the following:

White Cardstock in 8 5/8" x 8 7/8"

Scraps of Cardstock in green and yellow

Gluestick or something similar

Distress Oxide in Mermaid Lagoon

3D Foam Tape or Pads

Ribbon

Nuvo Drops in white 

Circle Die of your choice

Love to Garden Clear Stamp Set

Daisies on my Mind Layering Stencil

Double Stitched Ovals Die

Pierced Scalloped Ovals Die

Daisy Die 

Two Leaves Die 

Take your piece of cardstock, long side above and score at 4" and 5"

Turn paper and score at 1" / 3 7/8" / 7 5/8"

Turn your paper again and score at  1/4" / 1 1/4" / 7 3/4" / 8 5/8" but only score the line like shown above in the photo. It will end at the 3 7/8" line

Cut off on both sides the small 1/4" scored paper and make a cut from the left side to the 4" score line and from the right side to the 5" score line

Fold all scored lines and cut off the marked paper as shown in the photo.

It should look like this. Then you cut a half circle into the paper like shown in the photo

Get your stencil and ink ready. You can color up the whole box or only the outside as I did.

It should look like this.

Let`s start assembling the box. We start with the outside. Get glue on the marked paper and stick it together.

It will look like this when you`ve finished.

If you want you can add a small ribbon into your box, glue it on the paper like shown above and put the box together like you`ve done with the outside box.

You`ll get this when you`ve finished.

Stamp this little fairy and color her up. Cut out the shown pieces, add some Nuvo Drops to the blossoms and let dry.

With 3D Foam or tape stick the first layer to the box and then add the other die cuts as shown in the photo.

That`s it! Your box is ready and I hope you enjoyed making it!

Have a great day. Hugs, Sandra
