On The Farm Bendi Card Tutorial

 Good morning heartfelt friends!

I have a tutorial this morning, which includes the new Home on the Farm stamps and dies.

 

 

Directions:

Step 1: Cut 2 pieces of white cardstock, sizes: 6 x 7” for the inside, and 6 x 6” for the sides. Use the decorative Rounded Sunlight Window Die and Heart of Joy Decorative Die to cut the top of the inside piece. 

Step 2: Cut the side piece into 2 (cut at a diagonal) pieces, 1 measuring 2” x 3 1/2" and the other measuring 2 1/2” x 4”. Score each of the taller sides at 1/2" to make the tabs that will be glued to the back of the inside piece.

Step 3: Make 1/4" tabs at the short ends to fit into slot in the (inside) base at 5” from the left side and the other slot on the left wing (side) at 1 5/8” from score line. Make sure to match all bottoms before cutting slots.

 

TOP TIP: Re-enforce tabs with acetate packaging to help them go in and out multiple times.

 Step 4: Cover each panel (the sides are covered inside and out) with decorative paper.

 

When covering panels with decorative paper make sure to recut slots before covering both sides to keep from losing where the cut is.

 After covering each panel, glue sides onto the inside piece.

Step 5: Stamp all farm scene pieces using black (Memento for Alcohol Inks, Archival for water color), 1 cow, 1 horse, 3 each of the chickens, 1 rooster, 1 barn, 5 fence pieces or more if needed, 1 each of the adult goats, 2 sunflowers, 2 wheat stocks, 2 hollyhocks, 3 zinnia, 1 milk can, 1 cat, 1 dog, 1 each mice and a hay bale.

 

Color all pieces with chosen coloring system. Cut 1 extra barn (no stamping on this one or cut windows) for the inside of the barn (use a dark color).

Step 6: Cut 2 fence border pieces from Border Essentials Die out of white cardstock, then glue them to the tops of sides.

Step 7: Ground scenes inside and out with a 3/8” strip of green decorative paper for grass. Now start gluing stamped pieces to the card to create the little scenes. 

 

The Barn is popped up over the barn inside with the kitten looking out of the top window, the hay bale and mice just inside the door pieces. Milk can to the right, then chicken and dog on the left of the barn, rooster on top of the barn.

Step 8: For the inside of the right wing, glue a full fence, 2 zinnia, 1 hollyhock and 2 chickens (avoid tab). The inside of the left wing has the horses, 1 chicken, 1 zinnia and 1 hollyhock.

Step 9: For the outside of the 2 side wings: Left side, glue 3 fence pieces avoiding slot and tab. Glue a sunflower and wheat stock to the far-left side then pop up the standing goat in front of them. Glue the laying goat (baby cut off in this scene) over the fences on the right. 

 

For the right wing: Glue 2 more fence pieces, 1 on the right side and 1 on the left side then glue a sunflower and wheat stock in front of the fence on the right, a chicken in front of the fence on the left. Pop up the cows in the center.

Step 10: Glitter the card especially around all the top sections (avoid the animals if possible).  

 To show the dimension, this is the card laying on its back. Finished closed card is 6” x 7”.

Instructions: 

Card size: 6 X 6”.  Cut 2 pieces of heavy weight ivory cardstock, 1 piece 12 X 6 and the other 6 X 6 1/2".  Score 6 1/2" panel at the 1/2" for a tab, making the panel 6 X 6.  Glue the 1/2" tab to the 6 X 12” piece.  Score the 12 X 6 at 6” making three 6” panels.  On the 2 outside panels die cut the inner decorative part minus the round and middle square parts.   Score each side at 3” and fold inward. Use the circle dies to make a plaid decorative paper circle to fit the 2 sides centers then cut another circle a bit smaller to create an animal scene, also cut half circles of green paper for grass, (horses on the left side and cows on the right side) Only circles on the right side are folded in half to be glued down, the circles on the left side is kept flat (it is good to reinforce with another ivory circle on the back.  Cut a plaid 5 7/8 X 5 7/8” for the back inside panel and another 5 1/2 X 5 1/2" with fence and rooster on the right side.  

Stamp barn, chickens, flowers, wheat stocks, horses, cows and fence using black, die cut and color. Stamp sentiment using black on ivory then die cut with small circle.  Sponge edges with Peanut Brittle.  Die cut a small circle of foam sheet for the sentiment.  Pop up horses with foam tape.

Stamp sunflowers using Peanut Brittle, sponge with Cantaloupe.  Stamp leaves with Fern Green, sponge with Leaf Green, die cut flowers and leaves.  Shape leaves with mold, shape flowers with tools on a foam mat.  Squeeze petals at the ends.  Glue 2 flowers together for each flower then fill centers with Redland Elements.

To decorate panels: Starting with the inside back panel, glue barn to the left side, use pieces of foam tape to prop doors and window slightly open.  Glue chickens to the right and left of barn and flowers in front of fence.  Pop up sentiment with foam circle at the top right side of back panel.  Glitter the panel.

Right side panel: glue cows to decorative circles, cows will stick out over the folded center about 1”.  Glue some sunflowers and leaves to the top right side.  Glitter randomly.

Left side panel:  Glue the fence onto middle of circle, rooster on top of the fence post.  Glue the wheat stock in front of the fence on the right side.  Glue popped up hoses toward the center.  Glue more sunflowers and leaves to the bottom left corner.  Glitter randomly.

For more ideas on creating with the 5 x 7 Decorative Frame Dies, watch the tutorial at https://youtu.be/qdBFA5VpmSo. 

Instructions: 

Card size: 4 3/4 X 6 3/4".  Score a piece of ivory cardstock (7 X 8 1/2") at 4 1/4” and fold (4 1/4"X 7”).

Use the outer die of the Elaborate Oval Frames Die to cut shaped card (see video), leaving top edge off the fold by about 1/2".  Cut the full front out of ivory and also from decorative paper.  Cut the outer  die with the large decorative Elaborate die at the same time out of ivory to make a frame for the card front.  Glue the full ivory front to the folded card base and then the decorative paper piece on top. (Do not glue the frame on until other die cuts are glued on later).  Make the stand by cutting 2 ivory Swirly Accents and 2 decorative paper Swirly Accents outer die.  Glue sets together then die cut the decorative part of the die set out of ivory, glue them on the decorative paper.  Glue one stand to the inside of the front (make sure stand and card base are straight and even when you do this part), glue the other stand part to the inside in back.

Die cut 2 Petite Pocket Accents and 2 narrow Petite Pocket Accents out of ivory, Cut small circle out of decorative paper (barn scene shown on this card) then cut another circle the same size from Foam Sheet.  Cut the next size up circle out of ivory.  Cut a tag from decorative paper.  Glue the wide and narrow Petite Pocket Accents top and bottom of card front spacing evenly.  Now glue the frame around outside edge.  Cut off any over hanging parts of the pocket accents.  Glue foam to center of card followed by ivory circle then the decorative circle.

Stamp horses using black, die cut then color.  Stamp Sunflowers using Peanut Brittle, sponge with Cantaloupe, die cut, shape.  Glue 2 flowers together for each flower then fill centers with Redland Elements.  Stamp Welcome on tag with black.  Stamp leaves using Fern Green then sponge with Leaf Green, die cut then form in the mold.

Add foam sheet to the part of horses that stick out off the circle and glue down onto card front.  Glue flowers and leaves to each side.  Tie a bow in the yellow ribbon and glue it and the tag up under the flower on the right side.  Glitter flowers and card base. (Tip: the ultrafine is what I use on the card bases, Rajni’s Crystal Clear on flowers).

Stamp the Small Zinnia set using Buttercup, Tiger Lily, Magenta Hue and Majestic Violet, sponge the flowers with like colors before die cutting.  Die cut the flowers, sponge the edges again then shape in the mold (see video). For small flowers use 2 layers together, staggering petals then fill centers with Prills.  For medium flower use 3 together of the same color then another layer in the center of tubularly shaped Buttercup (Cut Buttercup flower petals apart to make it easier to place them upright in the center), add some Prills as well to the center.  Glitter all flowers. Stamp Leafy Accents with Fern Green then sponge with flower color and Leaf Green.  Die cut leaves and shape in the mold.  Mix shimmer additive and Lacquer together then paint onto leaves.  When dry glue flowers and leaves together onto the left side of the sentiment.
