Even such a simple gift attachment, like a postcard , can be made unusual and memorable, attaching a little patience and imagination to its creation.
Scrapbooking shaker card with own hands - master class
Necessary tools and materials:
- Color cardboard, beer cardboard, scrapbooking paper;
- pictures for decoration, brads, patches, ribbon;
- acrylic paint, brush, transparent corner;
- Scissors, mock knife, ruler, glue;
- sewing machine.
Performance:
- First of all, we prepare the basis for the three-dimensional part of the postcard and cut the beer cardboard onto a piece of suitable size.
- Strips are glued together for 3 pieces and we paint the acrylic paint in the tone of the postcard.
- Given the size of the strips of beer cardboard, the width of the colored cardboard should be 15 cm, and the size of paper elements 14.5 x 14.5 cm.
- Pictures for the inside of the shaker are adjusted to fit, glued to a substrate of beer cardboard and cut.
- The main picture is sewn, and for additional elements we paste beer cardboard for the volume and place it in the corners.
- We paste the dried up strips of beer cardboard around the picture, forming a square, fall asleep inside the pack and glue it on top with a 13x13 cm square cut from a transparent corner for documents.
- From the colored cardboard we make a frame and paste it on top.
- Complement the top with strips of paper and stitch.
- Next, we make creasing (forcing the folds) along the width of the shaker.
- We glue the paper and card for congratulations, and then stitch it.
- On the outer part of the cover we glue the tape, and the remaining parts of the paper are stitched.
- Pictures for the decoration of the cover are pasted on the substrate and cut out.
- We embroider a picture on paper, and for the remaining details we glue beer cardboard and fix it with the help of brads.
It remains only to paste the finished elements to the base and we will get an original, almost fabulous, postcard.
