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

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

Cards for February

Image
Hi there, It's been hard trying to make up my mind what to teach in February!  However I think I've narrowed it down lol!  Just in case you don't know, this time of year with Stampin' Up! is Sale-a-Bration, when you order $90 of goodies, you get to pick a FREE Sale-a-Bration product, this year Stampin' Up! have also produced a couple of $180+ Sale-a-Bration products. So these are the cards that made it..... Card #1 uses possibly my 2 favourite sets (Sale-a-Bration and from the Occasions Catalogue) and my favourite colouring medium!  So allow me to introduce you to the Petal Palette Bundle, and the Happy Wishes Sale-a-Bration set to get this set for FREE you'll need to place a $180+ order.  Love that the roses are cut out with dies!, and I've coloured them in with the fabulous Stampin' Blends. Card #2 mixes a couple of stamp sets, I think I've shown it before on this blog, it uses the Bubble Over stamp set , and the Fruit Basket Stamp set
