Something Saturday - Click Clack Concertina Card

-

 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...

ClassCards@Home September 2020

 Hi Creators,  Well the in person classes were very short lived!  So we're back to @Home classes again.  For each of these cards you can use your own sayings that you have at home.  I'll be providing all the cardstock cut/scored/punched etc and the extra elements and instructions, so you only need glue, ink and saying stamps. Anyway onto the cards: If you follow my blog, you'll have seen this one the other day, We're using the Best Plaid Builder dies for this card, and the Story Label Punch . The other 3 cards I feel I got a bit carried away with Vellum lol.... Card #2:  This card does use a vellum background (but you probably wouldn't know from this photo!)  I've used the beautiful Poinsettia Dies you can see the Subtle embossing folder in this close up photo, I love the "subtle" effect it has for the background, really softens it, which is what I wanted for this delicate card. Card #3 again uses Vellum, this time I've gone for Christmas, with t...

Best Plaid Builder Dies

Hi there Creators,  Well home schooling is currently taking precedence on my days off, but I did manage to squeeze in a little creating (keeps me sane!)  so I thought I'd share with you! As a demonstrator we get to order some things earlier than our customers, and the new Stampin' Cut & Emboss machine (Stampin' Up!'s own bigshot version) is one of them, it'll be available for customers from next month, finally after stalking the postie for a couple of weeks (the mail is extremely slow currently) it's arrived, and also the new bundle I ordered at the same time:  Da, da, the Best Plaid Builder Dies and Best Year stamp set ( Best Year Bundle )  it's one I've been umming and ahhing about for a while, so I figured I'd christen my new Stampin' Cut&Emboss machine with it, I'm so glad I did get it!  Anyway onto the photos (that's my favourite bit...) So.... here set up is my new (oh so bright and shiny) Stampin' Cut&Emboss Machine...

ClassCards@Home for August

 Hi there Creators,  Well, having made up cards to be done with me, we've been locked down again! hence I've made up 4 more cards that you can use your own stamp wording with.  This way you can order the kit and do them at home (and dream of getting together for a class again.....) Kit cost $20 plus $2.20 for postage (if I need to mail them to you) please order by 14th, I'll make up the kits that weekend, and either mail them on the Monday or wait till I'm in your area and deliver them off as soon as I can after that. Ok, so the cards are: First Up, it's been Wintery and raining, so I had a need for some sunshine lol, I chose to utilize the Friendly Silhouette dies !  I made this card up, then decided it would actually make quite a cool retirement card, and it's the first time I've used this saying from Itty Bitty Greetings such a handy set! After this card, I couldn't resist using some of the new goodies I have from the August to December Mini catalog...
