 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

Hi Everyone, As promised at the end of the last post, here are the "interactive Cards" I'll be teaching in December, were are doing Double Cascade Cards.  We'll be making 2 of them.  The class cost is $20, and there are 2 classes that day, 10.30am and 7.30pm - do make sure you have booked your place, as there is a limit of 6 in my classroom.  Otherwise you can order a kit from me instructions and pre-cut papers, and I will mail it out to you (let me know) the only thing I can't do with the kits is pre-stamp them (which is only the words) in both these cards. Kits cost $15 with $2 postage. Moving on the first card is this one: this uses the Dragonfly Dreams stamp set , the detailed dragonfly thinlit dies , the Pansy Punch , 1/2" circle punch and the Delightful Daisy Designer Series Paper .  And the 2nd card is this one: this one uses the gorgeous Year of Cheer Designer Series Paper , Gold, Silver and Champagne foil sheets, Seasonal Layers thinli

A couple of things I've created:

Hi Everyone, thanks for joining me again today 😊  I've been making up a couple of cards for specific occasions, the first one is for my manager at work, who's leaving to go and manage a new branch at the end of the week :(  However as the resident card maker I volunteered to create her leaving card, here it is: I know she loves peacock sort of colours and pink, so after sorting through some of my old swap cards, I found some inspiration in a Bokeh card, I love the way it's come out (mind you I also love the effect of Bokeh photography!)  I hope I'm fairly safe posting it on here, as I don't think she follows my blog! (and it looks better in real life than the photo will allow me to show) Just a close up of the balloon, I think the pearls really make it stand out, what do you think? The other totally unrelated card/presie I've been working on, is for one of my friends Birthdays (admittedly I have missed the birthday now, but I'm getting together with
