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...

Celebrate Sunflowers bundle

Hi there!
I've had a bit of an opportunity to play with some of my new bits, so thought I'd show you what I've been making up with my new Celebrate Sunflowers bundle (stamps and dies)
Celebrate Sunflowers Stampin' Up! bundle
 It's actually pretty cool the way the stamp lines up with the cut die image, so that's what I've gone with in this first card, and I really like the 2 branch/frond things.  Oh not forgetting the fact that there's new colours in this!  Bumblebee, and Just Jade.  If you can see the difference in the yellows, the flower itself is Bumblebee, and the centre of the flower is Crushed Curry.  I think the Crushed Curry is a little brighter than the Bumblebee.  also owing to the fact I don't have the ink pads yet, I've gone with Shaded Spruce for the ink colour, which really blends beautifully with the Just Jade.

 this next card uses the new Magenta Madness cardstock (plus the Bumblebee, Just Jade and Shaded Spruce) I've used the Sunflower dies to cut out the under part of the flower and leaf, plus the flower and leaf "over pieces"  I've used crushed curry for the stamping in the background, such a lovely stamp!

And this last card was a bit more complex I had to create 4 masks for the flowers, but it's made easy with the matching dies (gotta love that!)  I really felt like the saying needed a heap of flowers to work with the "bunch" part of the saying lol  this is probably my favourite card so far with this set, I've also used some of the Bumblebee In Colour ribbon with it too.

If you haven't seen this bundle yet, do check it out (click on the link above).
I hope this inspires you to create in your own space!

God Bless love
