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 white Core’dinations card stock to make an A6 tent card with the fold at the top.
2
Trim patterned paper to measure 10cm by 14.5cm. Ink the edges with chestnut ink and glue to the card blank.
3
Trim a coordinating patterned paper to measure 10cm by 5cm. Layer onto white card and trim to leave a very narrow border top and bottom. Trim the double scalloped edged paper frill to measure 10cm wide. Cut in half lengthways and glue each edge behind the paper panel with the scallops peeking out from behind. Glue the panel in place about a third of the way up the card.
4
Trim a square of red patterned paper to measure 8.5cm. Layer onto white card and layer to leave a very narrow border. Trim white card to measure 6cm by 6cm. Layer onto patterned paper, trimming to leave a narrow border. Glue this centrally on the paper panel, and use 3D foam pads to raise the whole central panel up.
5
Mix a little holographic and clear embossing powder together. Stamp the snowflake image twice using green pigment ink. Heat emboss using the mixed embossing powder. Cut one image into a circle and ink the edges with the chestnut inkpad. Cut the snowflake only from the image and layer up onto the first image using 3D foam pads. Add to the central panel using 3D foam pads.
6
Stamp and emboss ‘Merry Christmas’ onto white card. Cut into a rectangle and layer onto patterned paper, trimming to leave a narrow border. Use 3D foam pads to add at the bottom of the card.
