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...

January Mega Class

-

Hi there Creators,

Well on 21st January I'm holding my usual Mega Class in Laanecoorie from 10.30 till 3.30pm (or by mail, in which case you'll swap out lunch for postage), we're doing Men's cards this time, I can't wait, I love the sets we're using and I'm really happy with the cards I've designed, we have one fancy fold card and another special window card, along with 10 others, so 12 cards in total. 😍

If you are keen to come and haven 't booked your spot yet, you only have till 4th January, as I'll be ordering everything on 5th when the catalogue goes live.  The cost for the class (includes lunch, stamp sets and more) is $125, unless you're one of my team members in which case as you'll be ordering your own stamp sets, it's only $57.   I do also have an alternative offer if you're not keen on the sets we're using (see below)

Anyway, who wants a bit of a peek of the cards we'll be creating?  Oh I'm so glad you said yes lol 🤣

Card Class using Ready to Ride and Thanks a Bunch Stampin' Up!

As part of the class you'll be receiving 

  • 2 stamp sets (Legendary Ride and Thanks a Bunch) from the new upcoming catalogues
  • 1/2 pack of Ready to Ride Specialty Designer Series Paper
  • 1/3 pack of Adhesive Backed studs
  • 1/2 pack of Bakers Twine essentials
  • All your card-stock cut and scored for you and envelopes
  • Full written instructions (and me there on the day for any extra help)
  • Lunch and more
  • You can add on the legendary Ride Dies, which go with the stamp set (usually $56 for only $46 if you want to, needs to be done when you book your place) 

If you do book to join in, you'll need to bring with you:

  • E Block (possibly others if you want a selection)
  • Silicone Mat for gluing
  • Glues (I definitely recommend having tombow with you, or the fine tip glue to glue intricate cuts) plus dimensionals
  • Any other stamping tools you like to use

I mentioned that I do have an alternative offer; 

Someone asked if she could come along to have the social day and lunch, bringing her own stuff to work on, which as currently our numbers are fairly low, I decided it would be kind of nice to have extra people, so if anyone else is keen on this idea, let me know I'll be charging $25 to do this, you will need to bring your own things to work with, but you'll have lunch provided and still be getting a couple of goodies from me, but I wouldn't be providing you with the papers or accessories the rest of us would be using.  (if you pick this option and there is anything I have that you'd like to try out, do ask me to bring it) - you will still need to book your place so I know you're coming, but as I won't have to order your goodies please book by 13th January.

 Look forward to seeing those who can make it.

God Bless love

Something Saturday - Twisted Star Ornament

-
Image
 Hi there Creators I saw this cool star ornament in another video, and had a bit of a play around with it, ending up with this.... (with a retired Designer Series Paper) Then I ended up making this one (somewhat puffier 🤣) in the video with the current Natures Sweetness Specialty Designer Series Paper  Ok, to make this you'll need 16 strips of 15cm x 1cm Designer Paper & glue (I used tombow) Use 8 of the pieces for each side of the star, you twist them like a Breast Cancer ribbon, but with a small "head section" and have a gap of around 4cm at the free end, and around 4cm of the 2 free arms (if that makes sense, it should if you've seen the video!) you then glue 8 of the "heads" together to make the middle of the star then the tails glue together to form the points. once you've made up 2 of these, you then glue them back to back, adding a piece of twine into the last point If you missed the video here it is:  I hope this inspires you to create one t...

GDP #261

 Hi there Creators, The Global Design Project #261 challenge this week is a colour challenge: (check out the link to see what others have done)   So I thought I'd join in again, and try out a card type I've seen someone else show off recently  I know it would have been on one of the Stampin' Up! facebook pages, I can't remember exactly what she used, but I liked the 3D'ness of it 😄 and I have no idea what the card is called possibly Diorama card would work?  anyway I set to work trying to work out how she'd done it (although I suspect if I could re-find hers she'd probably already done instructions lol)  I always seem to take the hard way..... So here is my "take" on it using these colours.  The inside is the impressive bit..... The outside not so impressive, but check out that gorgeous Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper !  I've teamed it up with the Ornate Layers Dies , and the super soft ribbon from the Basket Weave & Metall...
