Lemons Make Lemonade

It's the last challenge of the month for the

Crazy4challenges blog.

I had fun being a guest designer all month and I guess I didn't mess up because they asked me to come back for October so come back to see more Crazy4challenges blog challenges.

Apparently today is Drink Beer Day...so for our challenge today include some form of drink on your card, Beer, Wine, Martinis, Mararitas, Lemonade, Tea, or Coffee...it's all up to you!

So...for my challenge card I decided to pull out my Lemonade2drink stamp set 

 and dies from The Stamps of life and make this fun step card.

I took a few pictures so you could see all the angles.

I used the rounded step up card die from The Stamps of life.

One last pic...can you tell I love this card?!?

I hope you will play along a create a card for the challenge today but even if you don't have crafting time today...be sure and stop by the Crazy4challenges blog and check out all the inspiration.

Thanks for stopping by!

Lemonade Zig Zag Card

 Hello Rubber Cafe' Fans!

I am back with my Sunday tutorial using stamps from the Rubber Cafe'.

We will be back next month with card samples from our monthly card kit but until the card kits start again the design team ladies are sharing cards that we created using stamps from past kits that are currently on sale at 50% off!

This image is from the Lemonade Stand clear stamp set.

To create this fun zig zag card I started with a 5 1/2" x 11" piece of white cardstock.

I used my Scor-Pal to score the cardstock.

I scored it at 1 1/2" 3" 5 1/4" and 7 1/4"

Then I folded it on the score lines "valley/Mountain" style as shown.

I added patterned paper to the panels with Scrap Happy Glue.

Starting from the left, the first two panels are 5 1/4" x 1 1/4" each.

The flowered panel is 5 1/4" x 2".

The yellow panel is 5 1/4" x 1 3/4".

The last panel is 5 1/4" x 3".

The paper is all from Doodlebug.

When the card is fold back up it looks like this and measures 5 1/2" x 4 1/4".

I tied a ribbon around the first panel.

I stamped the lemonade pitcher and sentiment on a white panel and colored the image with colored pencils.

Then I backed it with a slightly larger orange panel and then a slightly larger yellow panel and adhered it to the card as shown with  Scrap Happy Glue

 

When the card is folded up it looks like this.

Such a great fun fold card!

This is such a fun set and is such a great price right now.

I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and will give it a try.
