Tutorial - Box Cards W/O Dies

-
Image
 Hello again!  I'm back with 2 more box cards using some brand new stamps and dies from the upcoming SU! Holiday mini catalog & SAB and a tutorial on how you can make these without using special dies! First I'll show you a card that uses special dies that make it super quick & easy to create the basic box base to showcase all your fun images, and then I will show you how you can make a very similar card without using the dies.  This is a fun new stamp set featured in the upcoming SU! Holiday Mini Catalog called "Penguin Place" - I bought the bundle, so it has a punch that goes with it to punch out the sitting/standing penguin outline, the white inner piece, and the feet.  I had to fussy cut the trees, gifts, hats & scarves and the sliding penguin.  This is one set I wish they had made a die set to match for all those smaller pieces.   The Box base is created with dies by  My Favorite Things  called " Outside the Box Level Up Die-namics ".  My

Envelope Box Card ☆ CottageCutz

Happy Memorial Day crafters! Before I get to my card... The Scrapping Cottage is having a huge   Memorial Day SALE  (thru Wednesday!) and you can save up to 70% OFF !!  Be sure to check that out!!  We also have a brand new release (not yet in our Design Team's hands!) that is Folk Art themed and the bundle is 65% OFF for a limited time!  Plus, all the individual dies in this new release are 35% OFF ! Ok, onto my card... I made an envelope box card for an in-person recipient as this one does not collapse down to fit into a regular envelope.  However, there is a boxy envelope that you can make that this 5" x 7" card will fit into and is perfect for gifting in person.  I'll share that link at the end.   For this card I used the Spring Tulips , the Springtime Bicycle , and the Thanks w/ Shadow dies. *Note:  if you need to watch a video on how to create this card, you can watch this one   here  by Sam Calcott of Mixed Up Crafts. DESIGN STEPS: Envelope Base: 1.   Cut
