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...

Hi Creators,
Well it's all over red rover for another year!  but I thought I'd share a few of my photos with you.  I was blessed to have Rosalie (with me for the whole show) then Renee on Friday, Cindy on Saturday and Rose on Sunday.  Thank you to all of you I certainly couldn't do the show without you!

Also thank you to all of you who came and said Hi, entered our door prize, (which was won by Christine from Heathcote), and joined us for classes and chats.  I always find it so special getting to connect with so many different people with interesting stories and ideas.

Here we go with the photos.....  Rosalie, Renee and I set up on the Wednesday (Yes, it went for 4 days this year Thursday to Sunday, and looks like they're going for the same again next year!)  
So here is the stand looking relatively pristine before the crowds lol


then with some of the crowds......
And one of my classes, (I did ask the ladies if they minded being on my blog, and they were good with it)
here is the card that I taught these fabulous ladies:
it's my own design of fancy fold card which I named "Arrows" Card, I'm proud to say that everyone who made the card did an amazing job of it, and such a variety of colours for the birds in the middle by the end of the weekend!

Well I think that's it from me today (apparently tomorrow we have a power cut, so I'll be working on Christmas cards for my Mega Christmas in July day class on 20th July)  If you were lucky enough to purchase some of our retired stamps at the show, a little tip I have for you, is to google the stamp set, and you'll find all sorts of ideas from people who've used it.  Although it probably goes without saying, Pinterest is also an amazing source of inspiration!

I hope you have a warm spot to craft in and I hope that I have inspired you to create!

God Bless love
