Something Saturday - Origami Envelopes

 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...

Something Saturday - Delicate Desert sneak peek

 Hi there Creators

today I thought we'd delve into some of the upcoming "new" stuff.  I wanted to show off my favourite suite in the upcoming catalogue.  Although just so you know the retiring list is out so check out the absolute bargains you can grab on that and also on the Clearance rack which has also had items added to it:  Retiring goodies,   Clearance Rack

As I mention the video, because I went to the Stampin' Up! Onstage event I was then allowed to do something called a PPP order (Product Purchase Premiere)  so it meant I got some of my goodies before any of the demos that didn't attend the event (exciting)! 

If you're a demonstrator you can now order this suite as a pre-order, however if you're a customer you'll need to wait till 4th January.  But it's fabulous so, put this on your list!

Here is the board I made to show whats in the suite:

Delicate Desert, Stampin' Up!
There's stamps, dies, velvet ribbon and gold sequins
 

In the video I show off how I've coloured in the flowers on this card

As I used Bermuda Bay instead of the Cherry Cobbler, I ended up making this card with the flowers I'd created:

Then I also made up this card using the fabulous long Aztec type design stamps to create the background

Delicate Desert, Stampin' Up!

Then lastly I promised to make a zipper card using the long die, and here it is.....  I really thought it would make great zipper look, and I've used the end of the diamond'y shaped die to create the zip puller.  I'm really pleased with the way it turned out, I do think it makes and effective zipper, what do you think?

I hope this inspires you to create (and if you want to find out more about being a demonstrator and getting to order things earlier 😉 just ask me)
