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...

Shop for Freedom 13th September

Hi there!

Coming up this Thursday evening from 7pm at Enjoy Church (10 Phillips Drive, Kangaroo Flat) is the Shop for Freedom night, ($5 entry) it's a great fun evening where you can purchase good quality "op shop" type items, be pampered, enjoy food and friendship, and also make some cards!! (that's where I come into it, in case you hadn't guessed!!)
The funds raised from the evening go directly to Collective 61 - an Enjoy Church initiative partnering with Organisations in Cambodia who fight against human trafficking.

Anyway as I mentioned I'm going to be doing a little stand where for a gold coin donation you can make a card, I thought I'd show you the cards I have planned, I was going to stick to one card, but of course sticking to one thing isn't really my style - lol

So card #1 uses the Cookie Cutter Christmas stamp set and Cookie Cutter Builder Punch, also the Balloon Bouquet Punch and the Tranquil Textures Designer Series Paper, with a couple of the circle punches (bit of a punch card really!) The saying comes from the Soft Sayings Card Kit (gee this one has some great stamps in it, I often seem to go to it!)  It's a nice simple card, as I'm pretty sure there'll be a variety of people there some who will have never had a go at stamping before! (hopefully I can lure them in lol)
 Card #2 is this one:  Oh my goodness how fabulous is Santa on his scooter? lol again quite a simple card, purely uses "So Santa" stamp set, I've coloured mine in with Stampin' Blends, but I'll be offering either the Watercolour Pencils on the night or they can just stamp and take it home to colour it in.
I would have loved to offer more cards to make, but I don't think there would be the space.   Having said that coming up on Thursday 25th October I'll be doing an evening Card making fundraiser - same place, same cause, more cards! but more on that later (watch this space as they say!)

That's it for now, I hope these inspire you to create at home!
God bless love
