Something Saturday - Cascading Pleated Fold Card

Image
 Hi There Creators, I promised when I was showing off my swap cards from OnStage that I'd work out how to create a couple of cards I received. So, here we go, I have discovered they're called Cascading Pleated Fold Cards! (good start) Here are my 2 cards I made using this technique, I figured I could have a go at both landscape and portrait cards. 😍 The first one is made using the absolutely gorgeous Meandering Meadows Designer Series Paper . It took a bit of cutting to get it right as I wanted each scene in front to echo the scene behind, but I think I got it! Then the card I made up in the video ended up like this, I've used the Bright & Beautiful Designer Series Paper (which is happily continuing onto the next catalogue!), and the Ice Cream Swirl Bundle (again continuing on)   Although Sam (Mr 13 year old) did ask what flavour ice-cream is that meant to be?  I said Chocolate & Boysenberry (Hummm, Ok Mum....) 🤣 Anyway on to the measurements.... I worked out that

Cards for Regular Classes in September

Hi Everyone
Gee we're almost at the end of August already!  On 1st September the new Holiday catalogue is officially released (yay!)  If you are coming to one of my classes next month, I will have them ready for everyone to have one, if not and you'd like me to send you a catalogue - let me know!
Class dates are: Maryborough Sat 2nd 10am, Kangaroo Flat Wed 6th 10.30am, and Laanecoorie Wed 13th 7.30pm.

Ok, well, I may have delved into the new catalogue for a couple of our cards this month lol
first up, one of my new favourite stamps: Painted Harvest:
this is one of those 2 step stampin' sets where you stamp one image then the next one directly over top, for the flower and for the leaves (Oh it's so pretty!)  and, get this, there's a punch that goes with the leaves! (how exciting!!, it comes as a bundle too 😃)

Card #2 New stuff again *Hooray!!*
Thought we'd better have a Christmas card in the mix as it's leading up to Christmas (only 4 months!) this one uses the new SnowFlake Sentiments, beautiful set! (the dies that go with it are gorgeous too)  Also used Versmark resist technique on this one, with the glossy cardstock, and a touch of Silver Metallic edge ribbon

Card #3, I saw someone else had used the daisy punch to create a cute skirt for the dancing girl in "Beautiful You", and I just couldn't resist trying it myself, so here's my version
Isn't she gorgeous?, then I've used the Lovely Laurel Thinlits and the Powder Pink Shimmer Ribbon.

Ok, last but not least, I dug out the Paisleys and Posies Stamp set, and my new Happy Birthday Die
this one has a bit of a fancy fold, and I love the effect of colouring in some of the inside of the stamps with the white. And the Happy Birthday really stands out fabulously (I think)

Which is your favourite?
I hope these cards inspire you to create in your space, and I'd love to see anyone who can make it to my classes - let me know if you need more details.

God Bless love
