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...

Hand Drawn Blooms bundle

Hi there Creators,
Thought I'd share with you today the Hand Drawn Blooms Bundle, it's pretty amazing!  a pretty stamp set and really great dies, I've got a couple of cards to show you.

This first one is a nice simple card, the flowers and the stems are 2 different stamps in the Hand-drawn Blooms stamp set, but they fit together very easily, the sayings come in 2 lines, so with this card I've only inked up the one line, and lightly (and roughly) coloured in the flowers with the watercolour pencils.

This second card uses the main die from Banner Blooms, how amazing is it?!  it doesn't have dies to separately cut out the saying, so I recommend that you stamp the saying on spare card, then lay the die over it, draw round them both, and cut them out by hand.  I've also used the fabulous Rainbow Glimmer Paper, wow this is amazing!  And if you love glitter, but don't like it coming off on you (or going everywhere) this one doesn't! it clings rigidly to the paper and not you lol

And here's a close up to show you the beautiful rainbow glimmer.  Wow isn't it amazing?!

I've also used some of the Magenta Madness ribbon (it's one of the new In colours), pretty colour!

Both of these cards are really simple, Card 1, uses just the white cardstock (and obviously the stamp set with pencils)  I've cut an extra piece to stamp the flowers onto, but it wouldn't have to have that step.  Card 2, again uses white cardstock, glimmer paper, (with the die and stamp set) and a bit of ribbon!, so you don't have to have heaps of "ingredients".

I hope this inspires you to know that you don't have to make really complex cards for them to be "wow" cards!
Thanks for reading... till next time
God Bless and Happy Creating
