nt versions of it technique so you can get a better idea of ways to use it. The first picture shows some of the supplies I used plus one of the finished cards. The second picture I scored the white CS in half (4 1/4") and here is a TIP: Keep you
r paper on the Scor-Pal after you have scored it and push it again into the edge and crease it. This will make sure you have a perfect crease. Note to Andrea!!! Score a grid in a 3 1/2 x 4" MatchMakers, white core CS with the right side down! I showed how
to do this on the last post. I did this one every half inch but you can do it any measure you wish. Then I sanded the right side of the CS so the white core would
show through. In the picture on the left side is not sanded so you can see the difference. I do the sides hard too! After it is sanded, I take my Crop-a-Dile and punch a hole in each of the outside squares. I tied a ribbon in the top left diagonal holes.On the left I tied a bow and on the right one I tied a half bow for variety. Notice the pink CS behind itthe image
on the right .... I was playing with the idea of putting a piece of paper behind it so the holes would show through a different color ... this one was not enough contrase ... so you will notice in the finished picture I ended up with a chartueuses green.
On the left is one card with the the white showing through the holes and to the right is the one with the green showing through.
Today's question is: which do you do more .. card making, scrap booking, mini book making, or 3D gift items????

cards, then altered items. the only scrapping i've done is a mini book for a thank you gift.
I do cards and scrapbooking for gifts. Still love your blog and all of your techniques. You are so awesomely talented. Dawn M.
Loved the card! I do mostly cards with some scrapbooking on the side.
love the sanded look of this card. i mostly make cards.
I make more cards, but I do enjoy scrapbooking once in awhile!
I think cards are my point of intrest at this point...I also scrap (the books have just been sitting on the back burner since 05). I have also a lot of fun trying to figure out what else I can do with my stamps...recently, its been Glass Etching!
Keep the ideas coming, I try to stop by every couple days!
I really like those daisied! A neat card. I usually do more cards but lately I've been doing more 3D projects.

Love these cards Rita!
Definitely scrapbooking! I didn't realize how much fun it is, and now I noticed how many sets are in the catty that can be used for it.
I mostly make cards. And I LOVE my new best friend - the Scor-pal! Enjoying your tutorials and ideas!
I used to be a card maker but the minibooks are beginning to take over my life. Afterall, I've got to get the kids pics in something!
I really love your ideas Rita! Thanks so much for sharing these with such fabulous instructions! You are a gem!
Whoa ... thanks for the great tutorials using the scor-pal. I've been using the empressor board to do some of these embossed lines from time to time, but the scor-pal looks so much easier. It makes an easy and elgant finish.
I do a lot more cards than traditional scrapbook pages. I am a digital scrapper.
