I love the beautiful things you can create with double sided paper, like the Alissa line by BoBunny.
This month I made a cute little "Thank-you" set - a card and a cupcake box!
Here is a step by step tutorial - easy peasy!
I started with a piece of "Look at Me" paper, which has a really cool dot pattern on one side and a bright green on the reverse.
I trimmed the paper to 8-1/2" x 11", and reserved the remnant for later use.
Fold the paper in half length-wise and crease.
Open.
Turn paper 90 degrees.
Fold the paper in half again, width-wise this time, and crease.
Open.
Flip it over so the dot side of the paper is facing up.
Align paper so the short side is along the bottom.
Cut along the fold line from the left edge of the paper to the intersection of lines in the middle.
Fold the bottom right corner up so that it meets the center fold line. Crease.
Fold the top left corner down so that it is about 1-1/4" from the center fold line. Crease.
Fold the top left quadrant over on top of the right quadrant.
Crease.
Fold the bottom left quadrant under the bottom right quadrant.
Crease.
Fold the bottom right corner up and match edges.
Crease.
Put red line tape along the right and left edges of the green paper.
Fold the bottom section up. Adhere.
Trim out the "Thank you" square from the BoBunny Alissa Cut Out sheet. Mat it with the green side of the remnant.
Mount with dimensional tape on bottom right of card.
Create tags: (1) 5" x 2.5" and (1) 5" x 1.75"
Embellish as desired.
Insert tags in pocket.
Bake a cupcake!
Deliver to someone you really appreciate!
This would also make a great "Happy Birthday" set if you simply change the sentiment on the card.
Thanks to Claudia Rosa at SCS for the inspiration! Happy crafting! Susie
