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 there Creators,  I did a Facebook Live on Saturday (Easter Saturday) where I showed how to make this Coffee Cup, it's quite easy but can look really great with a couple of choccie eggs in it (or other things!)  so I thought I'd share it here with you too: Do watch the video below to learn how to create these, let me know if you have a go!, and don't forget to follow me on Facebook for my Something Saturday videos. Being CreateAble with Heather Facebook   I hope this inspires you to create! God Bless love Heather

Fancy Fold - Corner Fold with Easel Card

Image
 Hi there Creators,  well a week or so ago I posted this video for my Something Saturday Facebook live, and I'm a bit late in putting it up here! Here are the cards I've made using this fancy fold that I saw at the Picture to Page show recently.  This is the first one I made up with the new Butterfly Bijou Designer Series Paper, which is sadly sold out at the moment! (very popular) Currently the card I made in the video has gone walkies, however I did make this card up using the same World of Good Designer Series Papers that the one in the video is made with.  I love the brass foil designs that are on some of the sheets. Rough instructions are that you start off with a square piece of card, score it in 1/2 both ways (so it has 4 small squares), cut one of the score lines up to the centre point.  If you have that cut line down the bottom, you then fold the top 2 squares diagonally backwards, and that's pretty much all the folding!   Do watch the video b...

In Bloom Bundle/ UFO's

Image
 Hi there Creators, Today I've been trying (unsuccessfully) to clean up my desk, it's one of those jobs that you get started on then find things you haven't finished off....  So instead of cleaning I ended up finishing off a couple of things, hence the UFOs Unfinished Objects, as it turns out I end up using the In Bloom Bundle for both of them. The first one was this card, which I'd previously stamped but hadn't got any further, so I added the ribbon and the gorgeous Artistry Blooms sequins and finished it off: The other project is a 3D one, for which I had the "bones" made up, specifically the outside box bit, but I had plans for the inside which hadn't happened, so finally I chose the colours and what I was going to decorate it with, and here's the finished article...... I admit I did do the inside first, however you get to see the outside first lol, it's a bit purple as I was thinking about a couple of friends who love purple (plus I curre...
