Stampscapes Trishutter card Tutorial

2012-01-24T10:04:00.008-05:00

Today I thought I would post a trishutter card,

I have not made one of these for awhile and I just loved how it turned out

Base is 5 1/2 X 12

(I like to use a black cardstock base for my Stampscapes cards)

scor at 2,4,8 and 10

1 1/2 from border cut between 2 and 10 scor lines

fold to make the trishutter

Glossy paper 5 X 11

Make your scene, keep in mind where the folds of the base will be

colour in your scene

(I used many Adirondack Inks)

helpful hint- Q tips are handy for small areas such as the light house

Cut out your scene to fit the tri shutter

Helpful hint- make a cutout with cardstock for side and middle the pieces that will fit the base to make it easier to cut the scene out to fit

Add the moon, clouds and sail boat

I did this once the scene was attached to the base just to make sure I got the moon and the boat where I wanted them to be

Hope you like, this was the first time I used my lighthouse set

Don't forget to join

Happy Saturday!!!

　We have a special post to delight you today. Stampfairy is celebrating its first birthday, so Gerda and the Stampfairies are hosting a blog hop, with a difference - EVERYONE who completes the hop will win a prize.

　Ensure you leave a comment on each teamie's blog and collect a letter from each teamie along the trip. 　The letters are randomly placed but will spell a short phrase. 　Once you have completed the hop, left your comments and collected your letters, work out the phrase and email it to Gerda (webmaster@stampfairy.com). 　This will get you a Freebie image. Yes that is right, a Freebie image for everyone who completes the hop and emails the correct phrase. 　And let me tell you a secret: the image you will receive is ADORABLE !!So, lets get on with the hop.　
Gerda has released two very special collections showcasing two of her delightful characters.　　These collections showcase the characters in 12 monthly themes throughout the year and the Stampfairies have each created a Calendar using some or all of the images. 　Some of us are teasing you with only a month or two of our calendar, but other teamies will share the whole calendar if you're lucky!
　

　If you've arrived here from Larissa's blog, then you're in the right place. 　Otherwise, please pop back to the Stampfairy Blog to start at the beginning and ensure you don't miss anyone.

　 My calendar showcases Back to School Lenny and I'm sharing SEPTEMBER which is the month that most go back to school　

The next stop along the hop is Jackie's, but before you disappear,　 note down this letter 　

Thanks for stopping by. 　The blog hop ends on　Dec 31　so get hopping before the deadline. 　If you get lost along the way, hop back to the main blog where there is a list of the full hop links.

Now hop on over to the next teamie, and don't forget to leave me a comment to ensure you qualify for your freebie.

Alittle about SAS4Kids

Send A Smile 4 Kids is a charitable blog created for the purpose of collecting donated handmade cards to be distributed to children while they are inpatient at Children’s Hospitals. Currently we are donating them to the Children’s Hospitals in Neenah and Milwaukee, WI. On any given day, there are 50-60 children inpatient in these hospitals so we would love to receive as many cards as you can send to cheer them and their families. The kids may also use your cards as Thank You Notes to the nurses and doctors and others. Any kid's cards are welcome including: birthday, holidays (not religious specific please) and happy anyday cards. For more information, please click here
