Wonderful Wednesday: Uptown Girl Fashionista & Sketchy Corner Backdrop Copic Video

They don’t come more stylish than Uptown Girl Fashionista. I just had to pair her with the new Sketchy Corner Backdrop stamp to create a quick and easy scene for her to strut through. Watch my Uptown Girl Fashionista Copic Video below to see how this stylish lady came to life.

Uptown Girl Fashionista

You get a great sentiment in the set with her, but I chose one from one of the older sentiment sets.

Spotlight On: Crystal Ball Bundle Girl

It’s that time of the week again. I’ve got my spotlight out and I’m shining it on another amazing stamp – I’m here to show you why you need it. If you already have it, I’m here to remind you why you needed it, and inspire you to get it inky!

CRYSTAL BALL BUNDLE GIRL

The weather here is still on the warmer side, but I am full invested in autumn at this point. No going back, I’ve got my boots out and that’s it. So I decided to go with a Halloween vibe for today’s post.

Isn’t she adorable? The little kitty with his own crystal ball? I can’t cope… Creating this post I’m thinking I may just have to colour this cutie again soon.

Make sure you check out all of the other amazing BUNDLE GIRL STAMPS in the collection too for more fun, and our awesome SENTIMENT STAMP SETS for the perfect sentiments to go with all of your stamps.

Scoring board, bone folder.
Pencil, ruler, eraser

How to:
Stamp Curvy Girl is Busy onto white blending card and colour using your preferred medium.

Fussy cut around the outline and set aside.

Cut:
Black card:
10″ x 7″ (base)
5″ x 7″ (front flap)
2″ x 5.25″ (small inside pocket)
8.5″ x 4″  & 7.75″ x 3.5″ (booklet pages)
5″ x 5″ (large inside pocket)
Paper:
(4x) 6.75″ x 4.75″ (base)
(2x) 6.75″ x 3.75″ (front flap)
1.75″ x 4.5″ (small inside pocket)
(3x) 4″ x 3.75″, (2x) 3-5/8″ x 3.25″ and (2x) 3-3/8″ x 3.25″ (booklet pages)
4-3/8″ x 4.25″ (large inside pocket)
To make the front flap, score the 5″ x 7″ piece of card at 1″ on the short side

On the larger side, make a notch at 3.5″ along the 7″ side

Turn and make a notch at 1″ on the short side – top and bottom

Cut from the 3.5″ notch to the 1″ notch on the outer edges. Fold in the 1″ score line and burnish well.

Fold the 10″ x 7″ piece in half on the long side to create a 5″ x 7″ card base.

Slide the card base into the flap and adhere the 1″ section of the flap to the back of the card. Open up the card and adhere two of the 6.75″ x 4.75″ pieces of paper.

Take the 5.25″ x 2″ piece of card and score at 0.25″ on each of the short sides and one of the long sides.

Cut away the corners.

Fold in both side and burnish well, then apply a little dot of glue to the bottom 0.25″ section and fold up.

Apply adhesive to the sides and adhere the pocket at the bottom of the inside left page.

To make the booklet, fold the 8.5″ x 4″  & 7.75″ x 3.5″ pieces of card in half. Round the outer edges.

Apply adhesive to the back of the larger pages and adhere down on the inside left, leaving approx 0.75″ gap between it and the pocket at the bottom of the page. Adhere the paper layers to the inside and outside.

Score the smaller pages approx 0.25″ from the centre fold line.

Apply adhesive ONLY to the 0.25″ section

Adhere down on top of the other pages, lining it up to the score line.

Adhere the paper layers

Take the 5″x 5″ piece of card and score at 0.25″ on three sides.

Measure down 2″ on the left side and cut diagonally from the top right corner to the 2″ mark.

Cut away the corners as before.

Taper down the right 0.25″ section so that it is not visible when folded in.

Adhere the pocket to the inside right page.

Use the pocket to mark the angle for the paper.

Place the 6.75″ x 3,.75″ piece of paper on the inside of the front flap. Using a pencil, mark the centre top and approx 1/8″ down on each side. Cut diagonally from the centre pencil mark down to the outside pencil marks. Repeat on the outside piece.

Before adhering the paper to the inside of the front flap, adhere one side of the magnet down.

Adhere the paper down and then put the other side of the magnet on top. Apply some glue.

Fold down the flap, let it dry for a few minutes and then lift up the flap. This should leave the 2nd magnet piece stuck to the front of the card. Adhere the front paper layer over the magnet.

Cut two stitched pennants approx 6.5″ long and 2.25″ wide. Cut inside the stitches on the paper pennant, and adhere to the black card pennant.

Adhere to the front flap.

Retrieve Curvy Girl is Busy and adhere to the pennants using foam tape/dots.

Use a circle punch and some paper offcuts to add some paper elements.

Embellish the inside using stickers and die cuts. As the card needs to fold up the inside elements need to be kept flat.

Finally, add some enamel dots to finish off.
