Hi everyone,
Today I'm posting a tutorial for a Dome Card and the envelope to go with it since the card won't fit in a regular envelope.
Supplies Needed for the Card
1. White Cardstock
2. A pattern cardstock or a cardstock with the negative of the foil you used for another card (see picture below of negative used from one of the cards I posted on 6/22/19)
4. Oval and scalloped dies ( I used Avery Elle Sweet Scallops dies)
5. A sentiment stamp - I used Penny Black - Christmas Peace and Love
Card Tutorial
Cut the white cardstoc 5.5" x 8.5" and fold it in half (card base)
Cut 2 pieces of the pattern cardstock or white. One will be 5" x 5.5" (this is your card front), and the other one 4" x 5.5" (insert) . If you are going to use your foil negative (you will need 2), adhere the Double Sided Adhesive Sheet to the cardstock pieces, make sure there are no air bubles, peel the top, and adhere the foil negative to them.
Score the 5"x 5.5" cardstock on the 5" side at 1/4" and 4 3/4" (tabs) . Fold tabs on scored lines. Place permanent double sided adhesive tape - 1/4in on both.
Using the oval die, cut a whole in the middle of both the card front and the insert. Make sure they match.
Using a pencil and the card front, draw a fine line in the shape of the die cut hole on the front of your card base. Stamp the sentiment within that drawn shape.
*If you want, cut a piece of transparency or acetate and glue it inside the card front. *
Peel the double sided adhesive tape from tabs. Adhere one on one side of card base, and the other one on the other side (both folded to the inside of card front), making the dome. Now insert the piece of cardstock (4" x 5.5") and glue it so that the stamped sentiment will be in the middle of the die cut hole. Your card is ready!
* You can decorate the die cut hole. I used a scalloped die cut and white glitter cardstock to do so.
Envelope Box
Supplies Needed
1. 12" x 12" Cardstock not too thick. I used 65lb.
Tutorial
Cut cardstock at 8 1/4"
On the 12" side score at 2.5", 3.25", 7.75", and 8.5"
On the 8.25" score at 1/2", 1.25", 7", and 7.75".
Cut tabs like show on video below
After you cut the tabs, the envelope box should look like this
Using the corner punch, round corners of the top of 1/4" tabs and the top and bottom tabs (the really large ones). Then adheres the little tabs inside the lateral ones, and the larger tab on the 1/4" ones. Your envelope box is ready for your dome card.
