Something Saturday - Christmas Favours Boxes

Image
  Hi there Creators Today I thought I'd show off these little Christmas Favours Boxes.  Rose came to class the other day with one and I forgot to take photos, but I think this is pretty similar, so cute! The link to all the products used can be found here:  Christmas Boxes products used (if you're reading this let me know if this makes it easier to see the products used, I usually put up individual links for everything but thought I'd try something new, and potentially easier!) Anyway onto the photos..... the front: The lift up flap at the front The Back And I wanted to show off the gorgeous little "Low Profile Sparkle Dots", not sure if it really shows up as well as it could I've just realised in all the photos you don't really see the box! That's ironic! so here's one of the box! Right now I can give you the measurements for the box! Really simple: 12cm x 12cm, then score in each side by 4cm. then cut as shown: fold in the flaps and glue togethe...

Fancy Fold Arrow Card with Video

Hi there Creators

Well.... I found this amazing card on Pinterest (as you do) and thought I've got to have a go at that! it's by Mixed Up Craft, and here's the link: Tricorn Style Fold Card in case you want to see it too, I made mine up from an A5 card as I really hate to waste cardstock by cutting it to inches!  So at some point I might do up a quick video just to convert it to A4 format for you!

Anyway after doing up my draft I then proceeded onto my "proper card" and all was going well till I realised I'd scored it all wrong lol, however as I really don't like to waste cardstock I persevered on with it, and I really liked what I accidentally made, so I figured I'd share it with you, I'm pretty confident you won't find this anywhere else, and if you have a more inspiring name for it than my fancy fold mistake card, please let me know!  I was wondering about Fancy Fold Arrow card, what do you think?

So after all this talking I'm sure you'd much rather see photos!
here is the card I intended to make, the Tricorn Card:
however due to my "specialness" lol I made this card:  I've used the Broadway Bound Designer Series Paper for this one, it's a Specialty paper, with really cool Gold foiling in it!  also used the Balloon Bouquet punch and Piece of Cake bundle.
after having scored it wrong in the first place I figured I could add an extra score line, which is how the arrows at the top and bottom came about!  I think it's kind of cool, what do you think?
I also made another one, cos when you're on a roll.... this one uses the pretty Petal Promenade Designer Series Paper along with the Well Written framelits.

Then finally I decided that I'd better make a video on it, so Voila...
In this one I made this card:
which I have to say out of the the 3 of them is my favourite, the Designer Series Paper is the one from the Sale-a-bration Catalogue Botanical Butterfly DSP, the only way to get this is through a $90 order, and it is really wow!  I've also used the Butterfly Gala bundle (stamp set and punch)

I hope you enjoy this write up and video, do let me know what you think, or if you have a better name for the card than "fancy fold Arrow Card"

I hope it inspires you to create!
God Bless love
