Something Saturday - Origami Envelopes

Image
 Hi There Creators, Guess what? it's that time of the week again for Something Saturday!😃 This week I happened to be scrolling through Facebook and came across this origami envelope quick video, so I have deciphered the video (you know how they do it and it's so fast!) And I've worked out if you do it with 12x12" cardstock you get an envelope worthy of a card, and a 6x6" piece gives you a gift card sized envelope. Here they are: then I'll try and explain how to make them...... This first one is made using one of the 12x12" pieces of  Unbounded Beauty Designer Series Paper and this smaller one uses one of the 6x6" pieces of Full of Life Designer Series Paper Now, how to create these envelopes: take your square piece of designer cardstock, and fold in 1/2 diagonally Open it up and fold one side in to the middle: then fold as shown: open up the bottom flap and fold in the sides fold up the bottom tuck the point bit inside the envelope (you might want t...

Fundraiser for Collective 61 (and a video!)

Hi There,
Yesterday was the fundraiser I was doing for Collective 61, we all had a great day, and it was perfect for staying in and creating, being a rainy day!  I captured a picture of the sky before we started, it was amazing!

Having said that I managed to forget to take any photos of the creating!  (yay go me - lol), however I did take photos of the kits I created for the day, and photos of the cards/ project I created for it, and also a little video to show how to create the long "handbags" that the kits were in, so first up....

The Kit "handbags":
then what we made.....




As I had all my watercolour pencils with me, the ladies were able to choose the colour they liked for the cards, or to pick the ones from the pack "Lot's of Happy Card Kit"  gee the cards turned out beautifully! (very therapeutic colouring in!)
We also made a little framed piece with a quote from Isaiah 61 (it's in the Rose Wonder Stamp set) and matching card.  The designer series paper we used is the Tutti Frutti, and the little "Hello Friend" stamps came from the Fruit Basket Stamp set
And last but not least a little video for you, on how to create the handbags that I had the kits in, they're made from 12x12 cardstock, scored 1" in on opposite sides, then turn the card, and score at 5.5" and 6.5"  (just so you have the dimensions)


I hope you enjoy the video, and this post has inspired you to create, the kits really are fabulous, and so relaxing to create, (you don't really have to think too hard with them lol)
