DOCRAFTS CREATIVITY MAGAZINE ISSUE 33 MAY/JUN 2012
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
Trim spotty Noel paper to measure 27cm by 25cm. Fold the bottom 7cm upwards and punch a running stitch border along the folder length. Unfold to reveal a double punched border. Apply a length of satin ribbon between the rows to hide the crease.
2
Use fringe scissors to cut a border at the bottom of the layer.
3
Glue a square of red snowflake paper to the reverse of the top left corner and fold the corner forward. Secure with some staples. Glue the whole panel in place.
4
Apply a pair of cardstock sticker border stickers about 3cm below the punched border.
5
Trim striped paper to measure 8cm by 25cm. Glue centrally on the page. Apply a 11.5cm by 15cm photo towards the left hand side.
6
Shape a pin stem into a gentle curve using your fingers. Adhere with a glue gun and staple either end just below the punched border.
7
Trim the large tree from the image sheet in the 12x12 paper pack. Adhere to the right hand side using 3D foam pads. Repeat with shapes from the cardstock sticker sheet.
8
Curve another pine stem and secure at the top of the page as shown.
9
Punch 6 squares using the 3” punch from the smaller sized scale 6x6 papers. Mark half way along the bottom edge of each shape and trim each to a triangle shape. Shape each triangle between your fingers and ink the edges. Arrange along the bottom of the pine stem using 3D foam pads to create bunting.
10
Apply the Capsule alphabet stickers onto scraps of Kraft card. Trim to irregular rectangles and glue in place centrally.
