Something Saturday - Pop Up Pals Kit

Image
  Hi there Creators, Today I thought I'd show off this kit, which is really cute!  Would make great kids cards (and even some Big kids would enjoy them I reckon!)  It's the Pop Up Pals Kit (click the link to see it) you'll get to create 4 individual cards, and I think a bit of a bargain at $17.50 (just under $4.50 per card) which if you have had to buy a pop up card recently I'd imagine they are a lot more than that!, plus the added bonus of being able to say "I made it" 😍 Ok, so here are the 4 cards you'll create with this kit:  Then the insides of the cards: How cool are these cards?!  I love the pop out elements in them (and in fact even Tom (hubby) was impressed🤣) If you missed the video here it is: I hope these inspire you to create God Bless love Heather xox

Something Saturday - What to do with your left over cut off's

 Hi there Creators

As I cleaned up my desk to do a video and wondered what I should video about, I came across a heap of cut off pieces in varying colours, and just knew what I should be doing.....

So I made the video, then got it loaded up onto my laptop and discovered it was out of focus! grrr, so the next day I tried again, which means that now I have 2 lots of cards to show you 🤣 Well at least something good came of it (plus of course I used more of my scraps)

I'll show you them in the order I made them....  this first one I thought I'd stick to 2 main colours, white and red, with green base card

thought I'd also share with you how the saying came to have a torn edge....well, I stamped it directly onto the card first, and this happened - just goes to show you should stamp the image on scrap paper first before putting ink to your main card!, so I thought never mind I'll stamp on spare card, and cut it out in a neat rectangle, ha ha! I stamped, all good, then the cutter jammed and tore the card, by which time I was a bit fed up with it, and decided it could look good with a torn edge instead lol!  As I say in class there's always a way round things

So next up I made this one:  very simple design, not much to say about it really, just that you don't have to use all the available space on the card, it's ok to leave some blanks 😃  And you gotta add some bling, in this case on my desk also happened to be the Adhesive backed seasonal sequins, and conveniently they went with all the cards I created except the last one, (by then I'd put them away!)

So after this I created this card in the first video I made (which no-one will see due to it's "out of focus'ness")  This time I went for the whole front covered, and I love the scalloped edge I was able to get by using the Penned Flowers Dies.

Then the final one that I made up in the video below, with some of the "Brushed Brass Butterflies" (try saying that heaps of times quickly in a row 🤣)  and the really really gorgeous Tahitian Tide Metallic Woven Ribbon

If you missed the video, here it is...


I hope this inspires you to dig through your scraps for the straight pieces, and have a go!

God Bless love
