You make an "Anything But a Card", a card with a fancy fold, anything as long as it has more than a single score and that you let us know where you used your Scor-Pal in the project.

I decided to create a little Beach Hut in the English Seaside style and I had so much fun making. Having my Scor-Pal to help me with all the scores made it so much easier than a bone folder and ruler

Craft Your Passion - Anything Goes (3 entries only)
Crafting from the Heart - Anything Goes (3 entries only)
Simply Papercraft - Anything Goes

Project recipe:
Paper - Hello Summer by Echo Park
Brad - Making Memories
Corrugated Cardstock - Unknown
Stickers - Scrapbook Wizard
Fence Die - My Favorite Things
Banner Die - Little Miss Muffet
Scoring Tool - Scor-Pal Eighths
Adhesive - Scor-Tape














Don't you wish you could spend a few days by the sea and have the use of "Sandcastles" the beach hut? I know I sure do.
I hope I've given you a taste of Summer and that you will go and create a project and enter it at More Than One Score at Scor-Pal, we'd love to see you there!
