Something Saturday - Click Clack Concertina Card

-
Image
 Hi there Creators Well I was sitting last night wondering what to do for my Something Saturday, and playing around with a bit of paper, ended up designing this card, I've made similar cards before like the cascade cards, this is probably a bit more basic, but I'm happy with it and it's way simpler to create, but still packs a cool Woah factor🤣  I've used Sentimental Christmas Designer Series Paper which is on the last chance list. I decided it needed a sentiment so picked out this one from Sweetest Star Stamp set (last chance list again), because it has 6 words (1 for each panel!😃) and these Adhesive backed Snowflake Assortment are also on the last chance list and happen to be reduced to 1/2 price (woo hoo!) Ok, onto measurements.... You'll need a sheet of A4 for the base card, score it at 9.9cm either end, then cut in 1/2 at 10.5cm, fold so each piece is concertina'd into 1/3rd's then each folded piece needs a cut that goes 1/2 way up the card (in the...

Christmas Quilt Bundle

-
Hi Everyone,
yep I succumbed to the Christmas Quilt bundle, and Oh My Goodness I wish I'd got it sooner LOL

It arrived on Friday evening, although my "wonderful" husband decided not to tell me there was a box for me (grrr) until late in the evening (even though I'd asked!) by which time it was too late for me to do anything and I had a full on weekend, culminating in a migrane. However enough of my griping, and onto the exciting stuff.....

This is what I made up for my "Tag" card for this month, so if you order from me, you'll receive it to make up with your bag tag, just a quick heads up on how to make it, the Quilted Christmas Designer Series Paper is cut for you to 3x6" just fold over the ends and stick them down (around 1/2cm)
then attach your tag onto it and the cotton reel and needle. I found that Tombow (Multipurpose Adhesive) worked best to attach the tag on with.
So after this I had another go, and created this:
I've used one of the Clear Faceted Gems, and coloured it using the new Stampin' Blend pens (in this case the dark Cherry Cobbler), doesn't it look fabulous? looks better in real life!
Ok so onto the last card for today:
I couldn't resist just stamping, and I really love the way this turned out, hopefully the lady who receives it will like it too!  Don't think I'd be much of a quilter though I got a bit lost with the design lol!
just a close up of the Rhinestone basic jewels - again inked up with the new Stampin' Blends, Oh the Stampin' Blends are so much fun to play with!, and I love the fact you can buy individual colours, so if you use one a lot more than others you can replace it, and they are such an amazing price too, if you haven't checked them out, do so!!
Ok we'll I'd better keep going, I hope this inspires you to create
God Bless love

    Hi there Creators, thought I'd join in this Sale-a-Bration Blog hop today, and I'm excited to see what others have created using the upcoming Sale-a-bration SAB products.  For those un-initiated  SAB is a special time of year where we have 2 months of FREE Products *YAY*: When you purchase $90 of products you get to pick a free product from the SAB offering, this year is the first year we're going to have 2 SAB's in a year there's another one coming in July too (it'll be different products) *DOUBLE YAY* lol Anyway there were a couple of products that I have to admit I wasn't so keen on, but at the time I was ordering it was a case of pick the stamp set I didn't have as others weren't available, then lots of people seemed to be raving about the Designer Series Paper that I ended up using (again I wasn't so keen on it)  However I have a thing about not being beaten by a stamp set, so I was determined to make something of it (especially as I can...

What's New?

  Hi there Creators,  Today I'm joining a Crafty Collaborations hop, this is a group of Stampin' Up! demonstrators from all round the world, cool eh?   This particular blog hop is What's New? and open to our own interpretation. Sitting out in my craft room I spied the True Love Designer Series Paper that arrived a few days ago, and decided on a spot of colouring in therapy, and the cards started from there..... This Designer Series Paper is black and white, and has some great images to cut out (if you don't mind a bit of fussy cutting) The first card I made with the paper was this one, I've cut the flowers out from one of the sheets of Designer Series Paper, and used Stampin' Blends to colour them in. With this first card I've also used one of the Gold Hoop embellishments which I haven't used before too, I have to say the metal ring is really quite sturdy you can see the Gold Hoop a little more clearly with this photo, I've used a bit of the Gorgeou...

Celebration of Tags

 Hi there Creators, I've been waiting ages, but finally this stamp set has arrived and it's every bit as cute as I expected it to be! So of course I had to play with it....... First up I stamped all the images using Black Stazon (they come in strips of 3 to match the dies) and cut them out with the big joined together die.  Then got to work creating cards with them, I ended up with 5 cards in the end, Oh and I've just realised I forgot to take photos of the insides, bother! This first one didn't get anything on the inside, I stamped the tag up, then debated what I could do to lessen the impact of the white card, and came up with the idea of inking the little label then stamping it a few times without reinking, and repeating till the card was covered sufficiently.  I'm quite pleased with the effect I got!   This second card is such a fun kid card, you might recognise it from my previous post on Global Design Project #264.  I've tied the ribbon at the end, then th...
