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

X Box fun!

Hi there,  Well tomorrow son #1 (Benjamin) is off to a party, so.....Mum can you make him one of those X Box controller cards.... After making it (actually I ended up making 4 so I have some spares!) I thought wey hey I can do a blog post on this lol! Here is my version of the X Box controller as a card: I have used a combination of circle punches 1", 1/2", 3/4"   (and other punches such as the Cookie Cutter builder punch !) Here is the original controller that I copied from: And then I decided to get creative, as Ben said, well they do come with patterns on them too Mum: Break out the Sale-a-Bration set Epic Celebration - if you purchase $90 of goodies you could get this set for free! :)  He picked the creative one! What do you think? which would you pick? Thanks for reading this, and I hope it inspires you to look at things around you and see if you can create a card to look like them!, I'd love to see what you create! God Bless lov
