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...

Giving Gifts Dies

 Hi there!

In my random extra Facebook video I did yesterday I was creating this card: (because the new mini catalogue is out and I couldn't resist sharing some of the Christmas goodies in it)

Giving Gifts Dies, Stampin' Up!
In the video I mention that I intended to make up cards with the other dies in this set, and that I would show them off once made......so yay I've made them! I've continued using the whole bundle, check it out here:  Time of Giving bundle  how cute are the little reindeer and sleigh?

The funny thing with this Giving Gifts Dies is that I didn't really think properly when I was looking at them in the catalogue, I was expecting for some reason much bigger dies, possibly the name should have given it away lol!  they really are around gift tag size, but I'm really happy putting gift tags onto cards.........so here goes...

the next card I made up uses the leaves, I had the idea to cut it out of a rectangle of card, then have a second rectangle under it, and colour this in autumnal colours with daubers (I love autumn colours) I've also used a couple of the Brushed Metallic Adhesive backed dots, as they tone in so well

 
Next one I created was using the little baubles, I really wanted something sparkly behind it, and thought yea! I can use the Whimsy and Wonder Designer Series Paper, then realised it's white and I was using Vanilla, ummm, however white card can be coloured..... and the iridescent stripes on this are amazing!  I've used 3 colours and applied them with my blending brushes, I've also used the Treasured Tags Punch to create the beautiful end to the tag.

And the last card uses the snowflakes and I couldn't resist using the new Sale-a-Bration Be Dazzling Paper, OH wow what a shine! Purchase $90 of Stampin' Up! goodies and you can pick this paper out for free!  I've used the Hammered Metal 3D embossing folder as I thought it tied in really well with the Be Dazzling paper, which is kind of mosaic'ish, again I've coloured this up with my blending brushes

Giving Gifts Dies, Stampin' Up!

I'm hoping this will link to the video I created!  FB live video it is a little blurry in places (sorry obviously facebook don't let you have a non-blurry video!)
