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...

Petal Passion Suite

-
Hi!
Today I've been playing around with Petal Passion (quite possibly my favourite suite from the new Occasions catalogue), it has not only Petal Palette Stamp set, and Petals and More Thinlits, but it also has absolutely gorgeous Petal Passion Designer Series Paper (haven't used that much yet), Petal Pair Embossing folders, some pretty Petal Passion Embellishments, AND Petal Passion Memories and More Card Pack.  It doesn't come as a complete bundle, so you can pick and choose (but of course I ended up with it all lol)
However you're not here to hear me waffle on, so on to the cards!

I'll start off today with the Petal Passion Memories and More Pack this can make some beautiful cards (you could even use it for scrapbooking lol)
this first card uses one of the accent sheets, a small card and the heart sticker (with a touch of Clear Wink of Stella - I've used it as a paint brush, and picked up a bit of Blushing Bride colour from the lid of the ink pad)
Next Up:
again uses part of an accent sheet (smile), and also one of the acetate card overlays, I have found that to stick it down Tombow is the best. Isn't it pretty?!
Moving on..... this one uses one of the larger cards, cut down a little, and coloured in, again using the clear wink of stella, and picking up colour from the lids of the ink pads
 thought you might like a close up of the wink of stella that glistens on the cardstock.
Then the final card I made with the Petal Passion Memories and More Pack (for today), again uses one of the large cards trimmed down, then the frame comes from the Petals and More Thinlit dies, and the "Celebrate" comes from a completely different stamp set "Picture Perfect Birthday"
what do you reckon, could you fall in love with these Petal Passion cards too?  there's stickers in the pack as well... Oh the possibilities LOL.  I'll try and create a bit more with the Stamp set and dies before I do a post on those, so stay tuned :)

Oh, and if you're after value for money the above cards were all made with a kit that is only $17.50! how's that for value?  add some cardstock, maybe a stamp set and a punch or dies..........

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...

 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...
