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

Do more with your Punches!

 Hi there Creators Well I said the title out loud and my youngest son showed me a few creative punches, like this Mum, umm not quite the sort of punches I was thinking of lol!😀 Of course I'm talking about "papercraft punches", how to get the size to be bigger or smaller, handy to know when you have a saying that's longer than your punch, or when a small saying looks a little lost in the middle of your punch! So that's what my "Something Saturday" video was on this week, you can find it over on my Youtube "Being CreateAble with Heather" Channel or on my Facebook "Being CreateAble with Heather" Page However I have taken a few photos for you, and I'll try and explain.... (click on the links to view the punches). This first one shows the Delightful Tag Topper Punch , which has 3 widths, 2", 1 1/2", and 1", I love this for making my tags to go on bags or presies, you can do a larger one in colour, and pop a smaller one

Hi there Over on the Eureka Stampers Facebook Page, which I'm part of we have something called "Made it Monday".  However as yesterday was a public holiday, the kids were home, and I was unpacking the car back into my craft room/class room, so nothing was made :( So today in my list of things to do were to organise my "tag card" and the card that my Craft@Home ladies will be receiving to create, I thought I'd share them with you today. The Tag Card for those of you who don't know, is a way of making the tag that comes on your bag (when your purchase from me), into a card, so here it is: it uses the gorgeous Eastern Medallions Thinlits to create the beautiful cut out in the card, then the tag itself uses the Ribbon of Courage Stamp set, and Support Ribbon Framelits, along with the Tailored Tag Punch , and the Sale-a-Bration Shimmer ribbon pack (the ribbon may vary from card to card) You can choose to have these ribbons for free when you place
