ELVIS has entered the building!!! Or at least Designer Lori Craig's design has him at the Farm!

Lori's brought Southern-style Memphis charm to the this on-line class with an Elvis inspired project, sure to bring a smile to any recipient. Rather than purchasing decorative boxes this holiday, create your own with supplies you have on hand.

You'll have your friends all saying, "Thank you, thank you very much!" Sorry... had to do it!!!

Thanks for joining us!

Supplies Needed: Stamps: Scrapblock™ of choice – Perfect Plaid shown by Cornish Heritage Farms Blue Christmas (The Elvis Collection) by Cornish Heritage Farms Thank You Very Much sentiment (The Elvis Collection) by Cornish Heritage Farms Ink: Pearlescent Sky Blue Brilliance Ink by Tsukineko Tuxedo Black Memento ink by Tsukineko Paper: 12x12 Bazzil Bling – Prince Charming Cryogen White (Prism) Accessories: Organdy Ribbon Clear or white fine glitter – optional Decorative stick pin – optional Tools: 12” Paper Trimmer with score tool Decorative scissor, large rectangle punch or Nestabilities
Step One Starting with 12x12 cardstock – score at 4” from each side, creating 9 four inch squares.
Step Two On bottom left square, cut a small slit as shown that ends at the bottom left corner of the middle square. The slit at the widest point is less than 1/8” – so very minimal slant – no specific measurement required. Repeat same slit from the bottom right corner.
Step Three Flip cardstock top to bottom and repeat.
Step Four Fold sides up with the full, uncut square panels to the outside, creating a clean polished box.
Step Five Using 8.5 x 11 Cryogen White, cut a 6x6 square of cardstock – saving left over white to create tag.
Step Six Score each of the four edges 15/16” from the edge.
Step Seven Repeat Step 2 - creating slits in the corners.
Step Eight Apply blue ink to Scrapblock ™. Working with the rubber image side up, lay 6x6 cardstock square to stamp. Apply even pressure over cardstock surface to insure even impression.
TIP I use an acrylic block to rub over the top of the cardstock to be extra safe.
Step Nine Repeat Step 4 with the white stamped sheet to create the lid.
Step Ten Using excess white cardstock, stamp Elvis image in blue. Trim with decorative scissor, punch or Nestabilities.
Details on Tag Stamp ‘Thank you very much’ sentiment in black ink on lower portion of tag. Accent lights of Graceland with a touch of white glitter, if desired. Punch hole in upper left corner of the tag.
Completed Project Tie tag onto box and stick with decorative pin.

Thanks so much for creating along with me.
It’s been a pleasure to spend the evening with you!
