Something Saturday - Blackout Embossing

Image
  Hi there Creators Today I'm showing you a technique I learnt just recently - Janine Rawlins had put it up on her FB, and as soon as I saw it I had to go and have a go!  OH MY GOODNESS!! If you haven't come across it before and you have a plentiful supply of embossing folders, I suspect you will be like me too.🤣 So here are the creations I made then I'll give you a brief rundown on how to do it: (I may have got a little carried away......) First up: Fern 3D embossing folder and one of the embossing folders from Stripes & Splatters 3D embossing folders . Then the other embossing folder from Stripes & Splatters is the Pretty Peacock one, and the purple one is one of the Basics 3D embossing Folders Then lastly the 2 embossing folders from Fun Patterns embossing folders (these aren't 3D folders, but they still work 😍) Don't they look great? So, here is the way to do it.....  For these ones I started off with a piece of white cardstock, embossed it, then

Cards for April Classes

Hi There! As my card classes restart again this Saturday thought I'd best pop up the creations we'll be making! (I'll do a separate post for the Interactive Card Class) So first up, I've been wanting to use this little bunny for a while now, but hadn't got round to it, so finally...... and inside the card It uses the really cute Sweet little Something Stamp set , and also teamed up with some of the wording from Bird Banter .  Next up is this one which was a request (do feel free to request certain cards, if you see that I've made them!)  As it uses the Brusho to create the Watercolour background it can be done in different colours, and the stamp set Watercolor Words , which obviously goes well with the watercolour look!  Card #3 uses the beautiful Sweet Soiree Designer Series Paper: Gee this paper is gorgeous, it is silver embossed, I've teamed it up with the Picture Perfect Birthday Stamp set , to create the candles and

Kids Christmas Cards

Hi Everyone, thought I'd share the cards I whipped up for my kids to give out at school, to show you how simple the cards can really be, with just a couple of stamps and a small card (in this case the A4 is cut to A5, then scored down the middle at 7.4cm, and cut into three 7cm cards, and voila 6 cards out of an A4 sheet - simples....) Sam (6 year old) had said that he was keen to have chickens on his Christmas cards........, hence the chickens re-appearance from last years Sale-a-Bration!, he's also quite into Dinosaurs, so I figured what better on a Christmas card than a Ho Ho Ho dino? from the No bones about it stamp set (have to admit at one stage it was almost an OH OH OH dino, till I turned the stamp up the other way lol)  The dog's and cats from Santa Paws stamp set , will be retiring at the end of this month :( but again they make a cute easy card, and a little bit of colour on each card, and I reckon they all came up alright! The 2 birds on the top row are n
