ENCOURAGEMENT FRAME
May 21, 2020
TEAM PROJECT
My team and I have been meeting online every week just to check in with one another. Ask and answer questions and learn something new. I have really enjoyed doing this because it gives me a chance to teach them new things. When we only meet face to face once a month it seems like I am not getting to let that creative side of me out. This way I can teach them things that are more difficult than what I would do at my classes because my classes are so large. For this reason, I am enjoying this time of No Contact. Here is a project that we did today.
If you are not currently part of my team and would like to know more about the benefits be sure to check out my Join My Team page or contact me. Right now if you join for $99 you will get $125 in products of your choice. Stampin' Up! pays the shipping. Of course, you have to pay the sales tax. You can order from the "Pre-order" for the new 20-21 Annual Catalog.

INSTRUCTIONS:
On the 8 1/2 x 11 cardstock, score on all four sides at 1/2, 1, 1 1/2 & 2
With the cardstock in the scoring board or cutter in portrait position (8 1/2" side at the top) score to the 2nd score line at 2 1/2 & 6
Rotate 180 degrees and do the same thing on the other end
Cut out all four of the 2 x 2 corners where all the score lines come together
Cut up the little score lines you made at 2 1/2 & 6 on each end. Then cut down from the outside edge of the 3rd score line to the top of the cut you just made at the 2 1/2" line. Do the same on all four sides. (see the pattern)
Adhere your DSP in the center of the cardstock, (this will be the inside of your frame)
Turn the cardstock over and put Tear 'N Tape on the first scored section of each edge, that is the section closest to the outside edge of the cardstock.
Turn the cardstock over and put Tear 'N Tape on the first scored section of each edge, that is the section closest to the outside edge of the cardstock.
Turn the cardstock back over so you are seeing the DSP and start with the two longest sides. Peel the paper off the Tear 'N Tape and roll it toward the center so the first panel with the tape is on the inside, laying on the bottom where the DSP is. Continue to the 2nd long side and do the same.
On the ends put just a tiny drop of glue on the inside corners. Fold the edge over so you can see where you will need the glue. Peel the Tear 'N Tape and roll it so that the panel with the Tear 'N Tape is on the bottom. Adjust the corners and hole them until the glue dries.

Very Vanilla and Crumb Cake cardstock add softness, while a striped piece of Brushed With Beauty Designer Series Paper brings extra pattern and interest.

For this design, I paired the gorgeous Moonlit Flora Designer Series Paper with Mossy Meadow and Golden Glow cardstock to bring out the rich colors in the paper.

This beautiful birthday card combines soft, feminine colors with a wonderful fun-fold design.
