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...

Something Saturday - Light the Candles Kit

 Hi there Creators,

Today I thought I'd show off another new Kit I received although the kit isn't new, I have only just got round to buying it😁  Gee Stampin' Up! make some beautiful kits!  This one Light the Candles is one that contains ink and a stamp set too, so you can really go to town and make extra cards with a little bit of extra cardstock.

Here are the cards the kit actually makes: the candles are lovely and glittery (I don't think it shows up well in the photos)

This kit only makes up 2 different cards, but you get 4 of each so 8 cards in total, and as the purchase price for the kit is $33 it would make the cards $4.13 each, but wait.....

You can split up the candles from the top card..... and because both base cards have the pattern on the front and back you can split them up too, add your own base cards and voila!

the only things I added that weren't from the kit were the base cards (thick basic white cardstock used), and the bling, I've used some of the gorgeous In Colour Opal Rounds, which are kind of similar to the bling in the kit, only prettier colours.  As I explain right at the end of the video, I've cut down the front of the green patterned and orange patterned card and turned it over to get the little white strips for the saying and strip across the card.

Let me know if you have this kit and if you made extra cards with it (if you don't have it - what are you waiting for?

If you missed the video here it is:



I hope this inspires you to create something different from your kits

God Bless love
