EASY PEASY TOOLS!

SORRY FOR INCONVENIENCE!
Good morning ladies..sorry about the weirdness of getting on the blog. Blogpoll wanted me to sign up for sumpthin and was blocking us.. Thanks to Dawn's investigation, I was able to fix it.. Thanks Dawn. Now onto the project.
You know how sometimes tools look so easy on tv or in the directions , you get it home and UGGG. Well this scor pad by Martha Stuart IS that easy. Here's what I did.. I whipped up a trifold card and envelope in less than 5 minutes.. I think it took me about 5 to decorate and Done.. woo hoo. Here's what I did.

1. LAID OUT MY PAPER.. SCORED TWICE AND FOLDED, PUNCHED EDGES







2. LAID OUT MY PAPER FOR ENVELOPE, SCORED, FOLDED AND GLUED.

I decorated my card the way I liked..not too fancy and I stamped my envelope.
















I'm sure all our talented card makers have this down pat.. LOL. But to me.. it was a little card miracle to be so easy.. LOL. With a coupon, you could probably pick this up for about $10.00 Anybody else out there have any scor, folding or envlope ideas they want to share??

  1. Thanks, Dawn! You rock. You are a smart, smart lady!!!

    Ladies - I have seen this in action and have to say, it is easy to use. Kel and Dawn know exactly how I feel about measuring (I hate it). And this does make it easy. Kel whipped up an envelope in no time.

    Kel - What an adorable card I love it! I love the heart paper on the inside.

  8. I have this and the mini scor-pal and I have to say the MS is my preference (and I am not a big MS fan). I need to get fancy and try some gate fold cards like this with it, tho!

  9. Great card! It took me forever to get a score board - and now I couldn't live without it! My idea (to share - not my own!!) would be to use the score board to make accordion flowers. Lines are even and SO easy to make.
