Hello fellow KnK-ers!
Father’s Day will be with us in about 6 weeks and having a Zing means that I can make a fun shaped card for it. I chose a Trophy design with a ‘No.1 Dad’ sentiment to be added to the trophy base, the cut file is available at the end of the post if you’d like it. I’ve also added Mum/Mom versions for those of you who haven’t had Mother’s Day yet this year 🙂
These are the Materials I used:
- My wonderful KnK Zing
- Make the Cut Software
- Worldwin Colormates Smooth & Silky Cardstock
- Double Sided Tape
- Mirror Card & Ribbon from my stash
These are the Zing Settings I used:
- Blade = Standard
- Blade Height = 25 post-it notes
- Offset = 0.30
- Speed = 10
- Force =Â 100
- Passes = 1
Assembly:
Pic 1. Below are the pieces you will need to cut to complete your trophycard. Chose which sentiment you would like to use then cut it from the same gold/silver card you choose for your trophy shape. I chose a complimentary colour of smooth & silky card for my card base, you will also need to cut a rectangle piece to represent a marble trophy base:
Pic 2. Adhere your trophy piece to your card base then stick your sentiment onto your rectangle piece. I find double sided tape is best to use as wet glue and mirror card don’t always play well together:
Pic . Using more tape, place your sentiment piece onto the bottom of the trophy, fold your card along the perforated lines and you’re done!:
Pic 4: For a bit of fun, how about adding your Dad’s favourite team’s colours to the trophy handles like they do at big sporting events?:
