 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 October

Hi there! well we're in the thick of school holidays now, but I have finally found a few minutes to let you know the cards we'll be creating in my classes in October. I'll just go with the order I made them in, so first up is this beautiful bouquet from "wishing you well" stamp set, I've loved the bouquet and bow since I set eyes on them in the holiday catalogue, they are what Stampin' Up! calls Distinktive stamps, which means that they create different opacities in a single stamped image, it's really amazing  doesn't it create such a beautiful subtle image?  I've also used the Swirly Frames stamp set with this card too. Card #2 I had to use this Buffalo Check stamp , oh my goodness it's fabulous! I've teamed it up with the His Light stamp set , I do love the font in this set! then added a couple of the gorgeous Red Rhinestone basic jewels . Moving onto Card #3 this was again one of those I couldn't resist stamp sets lo
