Friday - Designer Challenge with 6x6 Pads

Happy Christmas Eve Eve!  The later we get into the month, the later my posts get on Fridays!  Sorry!  Had to take the dog to the vet again this morning and I've got a terrible cold.  Not fun for the holidays! 

Are you ready for Santa?  My girls are!  We are in the prime with my 8, 5 and 4 year old right now - makes this holiday even more special. 

For this months designer challenge, I had the girls work with the 6x6 pads.  Believe it or not, I have yet to work with the papers from these cute pads (and I'm a cardmaker too)!  Hopefully you'll get some inspiration and pull out your 6x6 pads that you've been hoarding!

3-D Christmas Tree Tutorial

Just in case you don't have your Christmas cards ready - how about one last fantabulous idea!  Thank you to Stephanie for this great tutorial on her 3-D tree from our Corrugated sheets!

Supplies:

Jillibean Soup

Corrugated Sheets - White, Brown

Patterned Paper - Apple Cheddar Soup/Fresh Apple Slices; Christmas Eve Chowder/Frozen Lobster Tail

Soup Labels - Christmas Eve Chowder

Bean Stalks - Pink/Purple

Other:

Ranger Glossy Accents, Hero Arts Gemstones, Studio Calico Shine Spray

Instructions:

Creating projects with dimension and texture is easy with Jillibean Soup's Corrugated Sheets. There are so many different things you can do with this fun product. The card above shows how you can die cut things from it to create 3 dimensional shapes.

1. Choose an image to die cut and run the die and a piece of the corrugated sheet through your die cut machine. For this card I am die cutting a Christmas tree from a Quickutz die. To recreate the tree on the card example, you will need 3 die cut trees. If you don't have a die cut machine or a die with the shape you want to cut, it is super easy to cut out the shape by hand. Just create a template, trace it on the backside of the corrugated sheet and cut it out with scissors.

2. Once you have your three trees cut out you will need to fold them all in half lengthwise with the white corrugated side on the inside. To make the folding a little easier and ensure the fold is right down the middle, I scored my trees down the centre with my scoring board. If using a scoring board, put the tree upside down (white corrugated side facing down) to make it easier to run the scoring tool down the tree.

3. When all three trees are folded in half, you will need to adhere them all together to create your dimensional tree. I recommend using a strong adhesive as the corrugated sheets are thick and you will be bending the tree pieces a lot to assemble the tree and adhere it on your card. I used Glossy Accents by Ranger and my tree held together great!

4. To adhere the tree pieces together you will need to apply the glue to both brown sides of one tree. Once you have the glue on, you will adhere another tree on each side of the one with the glue on it. You will want to hold the pieces together until the glue has a chance to set a bit so the tree doesn't fall apart. When all the pieces are adhered, you should be able to open the trees so that there is a brown side from the two outside trees on the bottom that can be adhered flat to the card.

5. Once the tree is all adhered and the glue is dry, you can add colour to the tree with paint, inks, markers or whatever other method you choose. For my tree I used green paint for my tree. I didn't have the right shades of brown and yellow for the trunk and star on the tree, so I used inks for those pieces. Let the tree dry fully before adhering to the card.

6. Once all the parts of the tree are dry, it is time to adhere it to the card. To create the rest of the card I adhered a piece of brown corrugated sheet onto the card front and then added two panels of patterned paper. I also added a Soup Label and Pink Twine. I then adhered the tree to the card by putting Glossy Accents onto the bottom pieces of the tree and laying it flat onto the card. You'll want to hold it there for a few minutes until the glue starts to set. Once the glue is dry and the tree is adhered well to the card, you can add the star on top and gemstones to the tree for added interest. I also added a little shimmer spray to give the tree a little added sparkle.

When the tree is all decorated your card is complete!

I hope this card inspires you to get out your Jillibean Soup corrugated sheets and try something new with them. Cut out shapes and layer and fold them to create fun 3 dimensional shapes for all kinds of cards and projects.

Have a great day!

Cards and a Project Monday!

Free For All Friday!

It seems like I have bunches to say on Fridays!  I've asked Jen to let me have a couple other days to blog in December but she didn't have any other days to give up!  She has lots of great projects to share and I have lots of info to share.  Including... we're almost done with the new lines and you're gonna love them!  Any guesses? 

Can you believe Christmas Eve is a week away?  How's your shopping going?  I just finished some shopping for friends on Etsy - LOVE that place!

Let's get on with the news and updates...

First up... THANK YOU to everyone that came out for the Toys for Tots Card Bar!!!  We raised $947 and lots of toys for this great charity.  Not too bad in 4 hours.  I even had some cards left over to make as Christmas gifts. :)

Next up...  I owe you a SKETCH WINNER!  Congrats to Lydia Jackson!!!!  Here's Lydia's take on the sketch.

Love it Lydia!  Love how you distressed your photo and added the ATC card to the end to make it look like one long piece.  Maybe it's the gnome too (he's growing on me). ;)  Lydia gets a $50 gift certificate to spend in the Jillibean Soup Consumer Store! 

Thank you again Julie Bonner for your great sketch!!!

Tuesday, Jen posted this month's Sketch from Julie.  You can see it here.  Take a chance at winning $50 of Jillibean goodies!

Next Up...I don't think I shared this yet but Jillibean Soup teamed up with Becky Fleck and PageMaps this month!  There's some AMAZING inspiration on the PageMaps page - take a look here!

Are you tired of Penguins?  Freehand Scraps' asked us to share their December kit with you  - it's accurately titled "Chubby Penguins".  Check it out..

They still have this fun kit available!

Finally, Have you been over to Scrapbook & Cards Today blog to participate in their 12 Days of Giveaways?  Yes, I told you the wrong date for Jillibean products - they will be up tomorrow, however there are tons of great products being given away on the other days and you can still comment!  Good stuff!

Have a great weekend and get your shopping done!

Jill

Layouts on Thursday!

Good morning!  I'm just about ready to throw in the towel, leave the rest of the presents unwrapped, all the handmade gifts unfinished, the laundry dirty remaining in a pile and take a rest and enjoy a good Christmas movie.  I bet you can't guess that one of my all time favorite movies is Elf.  Go figure huh?  The gnome lady likes that movie:)  But, before I watch it, here's another set of great layouts!
