A Touch of SOL
Stampa A Holics 3D Challenge


This is the inside of the wallet. So I got my heating tool and started to take the wallet apart.

Your solid cardstock will measure 5 1/4x 8 3/4 and your DSP will measure 5 3/16 x 8 11/16. MATH STINKS! Even though I was a SUPER NERD (but a cute one) Math was never my FAV subject. By this point I am already 30 minutes in and GUESS WHAT?! Mr. Ticker died. He started going nuts...He was buzzing and ringing and then he would restart poor thing died a violent and disturbing END! Will have to buy one this weekend.

I corner punched one end of the Caramel Cardstock and one end of the Sweet Pea DSP. This is optional but I wanted to give the front softer corners.

I ran the Caramel Cardstock thru my Big Shot (A MUST HAVE) using the Elegant Boquet EF. I did this on opposite corners of the cardstock.
So now for the sides of your wallet. You will need 2 pieces of cardstock. Here I am using the same Caramel cardstock. They measure 2 x 3. Score both pieces every 1/2 inch. Okay so you can choose how to adhere your DSP with adhesive or you can sew it like I did. This is the first time I sewed cardstock together. So you know even though Mr. Ticker is laying in the trash quietly that I went OVER and BEYOND the time alotted for a 3D challenge.
Valley/Mountain fold the sides and adhere with Sticky Strip.
I added velcro to the inside for easy opening and closing and I added a build a brad using the same DSP I used for the inside of the wallet. Now if you notice mine isn't as shiny as the sample I showed you above. The sample above is clear embossed. I didn't clear emboss this one. I am going to play with different versions of this wallet and get back to you. Hasta Mañana.

Hi Marisol, You really undertook quite an extensive project. First, by taking an existing one apart, then recreating it with your own style. You go girl! Very cute idea. Poor Mr. Ticker. May he rest in peace. :-) Mitzi Luttrull
