Boxes and lots of them!

I have been making boxes....

Using the Ultimate Pro board by Crafters Companion.

And Core'dination 12x12 papers!

'core' being the fact if you sand the papers, after scrunching or embossing there is a different colour in the 'core' of the paper!

I have used Grape & Dusky Pinks sets of paper!

This set of square boxes is made using 10.5 ins square core'dinations, cut on my ecraft electroic cutting machine ( also only available via Crafters Companion in the Uk!)

It takes 12x12 papers up to 50 sheets and no sticky carrier mat!!

The flower on top was made by using the large flower on the Srpingtime Embossing board,from Crafter's Companion, this board fits into your Ultimate pro Board!

This set of boxes was made by using 11 ins Hexagons, again cut with my eCraft, then using the box board on the Ultimate Pro, i made different depth hexagon boxes using the different score line on the box board for the lid and the base.

The garland of flowers was made, also from the Springtime Embossing board, which connect to the Ultimate pro embossing board, i embossed the various sized flowers and then sanded the Core'donation Grape 12x12 papers and cut out the flower then cut the centre petal out with a knife and curled with my scoring tool! Going right down to the circle in the centre, which i embossed with the board, sanded with the sand it buddy and the sprayed with irredescent Spray & sparkle, cut out and then added to the centre of the flowers with Collal Glue gel and added to the boxes.

HOW TO MAKE A TRIPLE,DOUBLE TWISTED,EASEL CARD,USING THE ULTIMATE PRO BOARD FROM CRAFTERS COMPANION

Here is my pictorial on how to make a

Triple,Double Twisted,Easel Card.

I have explained just the basic card, so you can add your own designs.

I have, for demonstration purposes, used the brand new

Humphrey images from the New Humphreys Corner cd's available from Crafters Companion.

 What you Need:-
Crafters Companion Ultimate pro Board ( not essential,but is what i have used in this pictorial)
2 x centura pearl A4 card.
Collall glue gel & syringe

 1, With your card landscape, butt up to the handle and score along the Half fold A5 line

 2; Turning your card portrait, again, butt up to the handle and score, to the centre score line,the Tri-fold A4 line

 3; Turning your card around portrait again,but with the opposite end now butted up to the handle, score the Tri-Fold A4 line,up to centre score line

 4; Your a4 piece of card should now be scored like this

 5; Using the ruler & knife inside your Ultmate pro, cut the 3 sections to the centre score line

 6; Fold over and  crease sharply,your card,looking like this

 7; On the left section score diagonally bottom left to top right,lining up your card across a line

 8; For the right section score a diagonal line,top left corner to bottom right corner.

 9; For the centre section, score along the Gate fold a5/concertina a5 line horizonatally

 10; Fold and sharply crease the scored sections so you card looks like this.

 11; With your second piece of a4 card, do exactly as the first piece, but cut the score lines instead of just scoring. so you have three smaller squares and 1 long a4 length strip.

 12; Add glue to the bottom half of the centre section and add one piece your cut square cards

 13, For the right section, add glue to the left triangle and add your 2nd piece of cut card

 14; For the left section add glue to the right triangle and add your 3rd piece of cut card

 15; Glue the bottom strip of card onto the bottom of the folded card
And here is your un-decorated Triple,Double twisted Easel Card.

16; Make sure the outside design faces inwards when gluing so when stood up, the picture will be facing the right direction.
Hope this pictorial is of use to you.
