Spellbinders Labels 20 Pot, Scor Pal, & McGill Tulips Tutorial



 Click on any Photo to ENLARGE for detail!
HI, it's Cindy Echtinaw from StampingScrapping.com!
I want to show you how to make these adorable tulips using the following Items:

My Finished Spellbinders Labels 20 pots. Paper is BasicGrey Sweet Threads
McGill Tulip Flowers in my Spellbinders Labels 20 pots
Stems are made from Flower Soft Spring
All items used to complete my Tulips and Pots listed above
Love the GRAND CALIBUR I am able to cut all these dies at once!
For each Flower Pot you need to cut TWO largest of the Labels 20 dies and TWO of the next smallest.
After I cut and embossed in my Grand Calibur
Take Scor-Pal and score Labels 20 (Largest die) at the bottom 1" in on 1 side only on 2 pieces
then Score at both ends 7/8" from outside edge of paper
Clip as shown
Then score at scallops in center of die with Scor-Pal and clip JUST the bottom as shown
You will need to do two for every Pot
Place adhesive on center tab and fold the two outer tabs in until they meet
These are your two halves once you have applied adhesive
Place adhesive on outside scored scalloped edges one will go inside one will go outside
This is what your bottom looks like when put together
You can cut a circle in Matching paper to cover the bottom if you wish
Take the Next to largest Labels 20 die cut shapes and cut off the bottom edge as shown
Apply to outside of pot overlapping paper at sides
On Scor-Mat take FlowerSoft Spring, Glue and wires
Dip wires in glue and into flower soft stand in stryofoam until dry
Here are my sticks drying.  I love the Scor-Pal mat it is non stick and easy to clean
Punch 12 McGill Pear shapes and 1 snowflake shape. Using Beacons glue start building your Tulip.
Cut One Starburst for each Tulip and color ends with Copic matching color. Place in center of Tulip
.
 To assemble the Tulips dip flower soft stem in Beacons glue attach to your Tulip.
Cut 2 McGill Star Lilly's for leaves for each stem glue on with Beacons glue
Place stryofoam in bottom of pot. Place tulips in styrofoam and add in paper raffia to finish your Pot.
Using Fringe Scissors to cut matching paper and crumple for placement on top of styrofoam.  
They are absolutely adorable in real life!
Hope you enjoyed my tutorial

Picture frame invitation

Gilli_Florish_GardenParty~
Hello everybody!! Spring is just around the corner…and if you are a bit like me..you are dying to get your seedlings and your garden party started!!! Today I bring you a little tutorial how to create an invitation using Stamping Scrapping & anaRydesigns die cuts made by Spellbinders, Gilli Stamp, Grand Calibur,
& the Scor Pal 
For this project you will need (or equivalent of)
1 Garden Party Material List
2 Die cut Flower Photo
Select an area of your photo using the classic circle die (second circle counted from the biggest die). Set aside.
3 Die cut card basesCut 2 pieces of cardstock using Anglaise die and your Grand Calibur. These pieces will serve as base for your invitation. Cut 1 piece of pattern paper with Anglaise die cut. To Create a open frame set the circle die cut (third circle size)  at the center of the anglaise patterned paper cut.
4 Die cut frame Pattern paper Cut the frame opening at the anglaise cut (patterned paper) with the Circle die cut. Set all the parts aside.
5 Die cut pendant
Using Frou frou die cut, cut a piece using green paper. Cut a white circle from cardstock using circle die (sixth die). Stamp a frame using Frou Frou stamps onto the white cardstock circle. The idea is to create a little pendant/sentiment. Set pieces aside.
6 Stamp Inside Frame invite
Stamp one of the pieces of white anglaise cut with stamp from Lacey circle Stamp set. This will create a little frame for your party info.
7 Write sentiment and text
Make a little sandwich by gluing the following layers:
Top : Anglaise frame (opened) patterned piece
Middle: Circular cut of your flower picture.
Bottom: Anglaise white cut
Add a little stickles around the edges and throughout the piece to taste.Set this piece aside
Write your party information inside the framed stamped on the second anglaise piece. Set aside.
Chop one of the sides of the green fou frou cut to create a pendant look. Write your sentiment on the white framed circle. Glue the circle piece to the frou frou cut. Add Stickles to embellish. Set aside.
8 Color Gilli Image
Stamp and color your Gilli image
9 Put pieced together
Cut around the colored Gilli image. Set aside.
Get together the front part of the card (anglaise piece picture frame) and the back (anglaise piece with your party info). Using a twine tie both pieces together on the left side. Make a little bow.
Make a little pouch with the tulle and fill with flower seeds and attach to the pendant/sentiment. Thread a piece of twine thru the pendant and tie to the card.
Add your Gilli image to the right side of your card.
Voila! Now you have a super cute invitation with a little memento for your party guest!
