Santa is Coming to Town

Šiandien padariau draugei atviruką- reikėjo jį padaryti tokį, kad galėčiau kartu įdėti ir mažutę dovanėlę nuo Kalėdų Senelio. 

Iškarpos Kalėdų Senelio rogių, stalčiuko, į kurį įdedama dovanėlė ir dovanos padarytos SVG formate.

Kokia eilės tvarka padarytas visas atvirukas, parašyta angliškame variante. Manau, kad nesunku suprasti visus atviruko padarymo etapus. O jei turite komentarų ar klausimų, galite parašyti i Comments ir aš pasistengsiu atsakyti.

                               

I made a greeting card for my dear friend- the card has a secret compartment to hide a "Present from Santa".

I came up with the idea to make greeting card with Santa's Sleigh and put a secret drawer under it. I made a SVG file to cut a sleigh and drawer using a Cricut. So if you want to cut different size both shapes will come out adjusted.

Then I made presents using Cricut, folded and glued on the Sleigh. The rest of used supplies is below.

I hope you enjoy my greeting card and maybe you will make one yourself.

                                    

To make a Santa's Sleigh greeting card use file to cut out a Santa's Sleigh (SVG).

Card stock 11"x 6" and scored at 5.5" plaid red ( Momenta card stock)

Card stock green 5 1/2" x 4 3/4" textured using Sizzix

Snow- use Glossy Accents  and Dazzling Diamonds

Ribbon Red 18-20"

Embroidery floss

Santa is coming to town- file

Snowflakes - file.

1. Cut out Santa's Sleigh using Cricut ( when using red paper for a sleigh align next to it black paper for a sleigh base so your Cricut will cut both details at the same time.

2. Glue a sleigh and a base together.

3 . Cut out sleigh's drawer, glue and insert into sleigh. File

4. Cut out presents using a Present file. Use different colors of paper ( best is to use designer's paper) and glue it together. Use embroidery floss to tie a knots on the presents.

5. Glue the presents onto a sleigh.

6. Texture the green card stock.

7. Tie the ribbon.

8.Glue green card stock to the red plaid base.

9. Glue the sleigh to the green card stock.

10. Use Glossy Accents around the sleigh. Drizzle the Dazzling Diamonds. Let it dry.

11. Punch out sentence " Santa is coming to town" and glue to the card.

12 . Use Glossy Accents to glue some Dazzling Diamonds on the snowflakes  and glue snowflakes using 3D dots on the card.

13.The card we put into a box.

The box is cut out of red plaid card stock- the same we used for a card base. Start with a 11 1/8" by 10 5/8" sheet of paper. We score 2 4/8", 8 5/8" then turn 90 degrees left and score 2 4/8 and 8 1/8". Make cuts to first folding line and score to form a box. Put some glue on the flaps and glue that the flaps go inside of the box.

The lid is made by the same size of paper, but this time we need to move paper 1/16" right from the 0 mark of the ruler, then make a score at 2 4/8", then move paper back to the left to reach 0 mark of the ruler, then score at 8 5/8" mark. Then turn the paper 90 degree to the left and line the paper to 1/16 " mark, score at 2 4/8" mark, then move the paper back to the 0 mark of the ruler and score again at 8 1/8 ". Make cuts to the first folding line. Now it's time to decorate your box lid. After your box lid is decorated put a glue on the flaps and glue it together. This box is accommodated to keep your Santa's Sleigh card.
