Envelope Tutorial from 6 x 6 Papers

These Envelopes are ultra easy and great to build up your stash, these are made 
using 6 x 6 Papers but you could adjust to any size you want. 
You could make a batch up with no decorations, add do them as needed or
pretty them all up now, either way this is a great way to use up scraps,
I hope you like this tutorial any questions please ask 
Original Idea came from Cameilia Crafts on YouTube




1 - These Envelopes are ultra easy and great to build up your stash,
these are made using 6 x 6 Papers but you could adjust to any size you want.
 




2 - Print some papers i used 160gsm cardstock but you can use what suits you best .


3 - Taking 2 6 x 6 Papers, score them at 2.5


4 - Bone fold both papers


5 - Taking 1 of the papers, notch on both folds of the paper.



6 - Laying the un notched paper flat with the inside up, smaller fold to the top,
lay the larger paper on top, it is up to you how much you leave
above the notch before gluing.

6a - Flip the paper over , and glue the smaller fold down, this gives you a back pocket.



6b




7a - Now the fun bit, decorate your envelopes, here i added a small frame and label
to the flap, then a small label as a tuck spot to close the envelope.






8 - You could make a batch up with no decorations, add do them as needed or pretty
them all up now, either way this is a great way to use up scraps,

Grungy Christmas Tag Tutorial

Good afternoon i have a tutorial for you today, I am  totally addicted to master boards, so what better way to start off this Tutorial ;) 

First lets gather our supplies, gather all your paper offcuts and grab
an Art Pad with a decent quality paper, this one is 160gsm, or
if you don't have that old magazine pages or flyers will do,
don't forget your glue and scissors :)



Taking the Art Pad and your scraps, lets get started.



Choose your scraps and glue them down, creating a 
master board, every one is unique so go for it.

You now have your base for your tag, or Journal card 
whatever you need to create, this walkthrough works
whatever you want it to.


I am making a tall tag with pockets, so I started 
by cutting a Long Piece 8.5" x 4" approx., to that 
I randomly added some torn book page to the tag.



From a spare bit of card i cut a pocket, 8.5" x 2.25"
You of course can cut it to whatever size you like, I 
then covered this card with scraps, Inked the edges 
of both card and pocket and glued it to the front of the
large tag.



Next I covered the rear of the tag with some aged 
paper, and added a pocket, and inked the edges.



Then cut up the remaining master board into tags to fit the pockets,
and again Ink those edges.


Next i added some stamping to the tags, to further
age them, you don't need to do this, but I had some 
Stamps i wanted to play with ;) 




You can now get creative, by decorating them anyway you wish,
I printed some of Emma's Free Christmas Fussy cuts, and off we go 



I used Sticker Paper to print the fussy cuts, but again
you don't need it, if the border is too white, run your inking 
pad across it, there should be enough residue ink to age it.


I then decided to add a little sparkle with some glitter paint.



And here we go, 2 tags for the front and 1 for the rear.


Close up of Tags.



Add some ribbon, (the bow was not having it,
so we lost the bow lol) 

FRONT


REAR


I hope you enjoyed the walk through, and i didn't ramble on 
too long, any questions I am happy to help :)
