This issue we feature a delightful collection from Lucy Cromwell by Papermania, off ering all the cups of tea, cake and bunting you will need to set the scene. And just to prove how versatile this range is, you can also find it in our ‘Wedding Special’ feature and used to make a Father’s Day card in our ‘make a Father’s Day card’ challenge! Our ‘Wedding Special’ feature also includes jewellery for the bride and a charming idea to hold onto those precious memories of the big day!

Step by Step

1

Using the template cut out the card in pale yellow card. Score along fold lines and cut along cutting lines.

2

Leaving a small border of yellow card showing all round, cover the left flap with textured pale blue card, the right flap with textured pale yellow card and the centre spine with two rectangles of pale blue textured card. Cover both sides of the centre rectangle with white textured card.

3

Using the pale blue and yellow side of the card stick Forever Friends stickers on the whit rectangle and add greetings on the right. This will show when the card swings around. Add greetings to the front top left of and bottom right off the card. Add a small 'tag' sticker to the top left of the rectangle.

4

Lay the card in front of you with the decorated side showing. Fold the card with a mountain fold on the left of the spine and a valley fold on the right, so the plain white rectangle folds over the yellow flap on the right. Decorate this rectangle with Forever Friends Stickers. (Note: A third of the rectangle will be behind the front blue flap when the card is closed.

5

Finish the card with sticker buttons at the corners as shown. Add stitching lines on the buttons and around the edges of the card with the fine end of a light blue brush marker. Fold the card with the first fold up and second fold down, as shown.

Hello, I’m Carol Hadlow I have always enjoyed all sorts of crafts. I really enjoy making cards using a variety of techniques. Rubber stamping, glass painting and funky foam are a few of my favourites. ‘do crafts’ are the ideal company to work for with their huge range of card making products. I love demonstrating because I enjoy introducing new customers to the wonderful world of crafting. I hope everyone has as much fun crafting as I do!
